What I do for you
I don't build dashboards. I answer one question per week — the one you actually need answered. I format the numbers so averages can't lie to you, and I come back with one recommendation and the confidence level behind it. If you ask me 'where did the money go' and I don't have an answer in 5 seconds, fire me.
Find the one metric that explains last month. Tell you which customers are actually profitable. Pinpoint the step in your funnel that's leaking money.
'Is this business actually working?' 'Where did the money go?' 'Should we raise or should we cut?' 'Why does revenue look fine but cash keeps shrinking?'
I've killed more bad experiments than I've blessed. Founders thank me for the pivots I pushed when everyone else was still 'optimizing the funnel.'
