It's official.....I’m baaaack! 🎉 📣 🎉 Call it a sequel with an extra shot of espresso (maybe two). RVP (Rally Venture Partners) is picking up where Creatix left off, evolving the model to offer more than just custom software development. I’ve always seen technology as an enabler—the glue that holds nearly every business together today. There’s no shortage of tools or opportunities to build custom software to unlock new possibilities for your business, whether it’s driving growth or operating more efficiently. But where I thrive is in fluency: understanding the depth and breadth of your business, paired with the unique ability to identify how technology can be built and integrated to get you where you want to go—a dangerously impactful combination. I’m not just here to consult or advise—I’m here to roll up my sleeves and partner with you in hands-on execution. With an ecosystem of proven resources at my fingertips, I can bring in the right talent and tools, eliminating wasted time and effort. From identifying opportunities and mitigating risks to building and executing solutions that push businesses forward, I’m laser-focused on delivering outcomes. Whether it’s achieving hockey-stick growth, getting unstuck and catalyzing a turnaround, or preparing for a strategic exit or PE acquisition, the goal is always the same: meaningful impact, measurable outcomes. Creatix was a wild ride: 300+ tech projects, 6 exits, and over $1 billion in enterprise value created. I built, scaled, and solved big challenges—and I realized that creating value through bold solutions and driving growth and EBITDA is where I thrive. This isn’t just what I do—it’s what I love to do. Here’s to the next chapter and the next big win. Let’s rally! 🚀 🍻 https://www.rvp.io/ #ValueEngineering #ValueCreation #GTMExecution #GTMStrategy #CustomSoftware #DigitalProductDevelopment #SoftwareEngineering #FractionalOperator #Entrepreneurship #BusinessGrowth #ScaleUp

I’ve seen this happen to countless startups and innovation teams over the years. Great product. Solid design. Strong functionality. Something the team is proud of. When it comes to the buyer? They're about as interested as a cat at a dog show. After enough conversations that go nowhere, it starts to feel like you’re stuck in a never-ending loop. "Call us when you get some traction," or "when you are further down the road, let us know." You can have all the right tools but be aiming at the wrong targets. When you know where to aim, everything gets easier. Suddenly, the right customers don’t seem so impossible to find. I’m stepping into a new chapter, and while I can’t share all the details just yet, the future of #GTMinnovation and #sales is about to get a lot more interesting. Stay tuned... P.S. The right people are out there—you just need to aim better.

Differentiated Products by Startups I am asked by many founders how to convince investors (especially if they have no exposure to the particular industry) that their product is differentiated enough. Use all the four below: 1) Product/ Service demonstration , supported by 2) Testimonials of users and feedback from experts 3) Customer research, reports and analysis 4) Background of the team to deliver differentiated products #venturecapital #founders

When you start out building a product, and a startup. No matter how vast, niche, red or blue ocean market, first-movers, or late entrants, one of the key worries is whether users will use, and need the product.
