Founders Clinic; 9 Experts, 3 Areas, 1 Session
A fast-paced, Slack-based session where founders and operators get real input on real problems from people who’ve actually done it.
This is open to anyone running or supporting a startup or scaleup. You don’t need to be part of the Fractional Consultant Community to join just bring a challenge or curiosity and get involved
How it works
This runs entirely in Slack.
Think of it as:
Multiple live threads happening at once
Like having your own mini-mastermind group, on demand
You can dip in, ask a question, leave, come back all in your own time
For founders:
Ask a question and get input from multiple experienced operators
Go deeper with specific experts in-thread
Pressure-test decisions quickly
For everyone else:
See what founders are actually struggling with
Watch experts agree, disagree, and challenge each other
Learn how experienced operators think in real time
What you’ll get
Practical answers, not theory
Multiple perspectives across Sales, Marketing, and Tech
Honest, sometimes conflicting viewpoints
Ideas you can act on immediately
Topics we’ll cover
Questions typically land around:
How to actually close deals, not just generate interest
Fixing weak pipeline or stalled growth
Positioning and messaging that converts
Building a marketing function beyond the founder
Choosing the right tech, tools, or architecture
Hiring (or not hiring) senior leaders
Turning tech into a commercial advantage
Experts in the room
Sales – operators who’ve built and scaled revenue functions
Marketing – experts in positioning, GTM and demand generation
Tech – CTOs and product leaders who’ve scaled teams and systems
Including people with experience across companies like Snyk, Canonical, HP and multiple high-growth startups.
