About

Business coach for startup founders and early-stage entrepreneurs navigating the gap between idea and execution.

Coaching Philosophy

Building a startup is one of the hardest things a person can do, and most of the advice out there is either wrong or does not apply to your specific situation. My coaching is about helping you think more clearly and decide more quickly.

Areas of Expertise

Early-stage startup strategy and execution Founder mental health and sustainability Sales and go-to-market approach Hiring the first team and managing equity Fundraising readiness and investor relationships

Why Choose Me

Two exits and a decade of investing gives me a perspective on startups that most coaches simply cannot offer. I have made the mistakes, raised the rounds, managed the board, and sold the companies.

Liam is the kind of advisor every founder needs and very few find. He has done it himself, which means he immediately understands the problems you are describing.

I was about to make a hiring decision that would have been disastrous. One session with Liam helped me see it clearly and change course.

Highly practical and commercially literate. Liam does not deal in theory — he deals in what actually works in early-stage companies.
