For Founding AEs in the seat

The seat is lonely. The room isn’t.

A community of Founding AE operators across stages, verticals, and motions. Comparing notes on what’s landing this month, deals that are stuck, founder behavior to navigate, ramp problems no one warned anyone about. The conversations you can’t have inside your own company.

Hosted as a private LinkedIn group. I review every request personally.

What’s actually inside

Operators comparing notes — in real time.

Not a job board. Not a content channel. A room of people sitting in Founding AE seats somewhere else, asking each other the questions they can’t ask their own founder.

Deals that are stuck
Real deals from real pipelines. What’s the unstated objection. What would you try next. The room has seen most of it before.
Founder behavior to navigate
The patterns people are working around — without naming names. How others have handled the same thing.
What’s landing in outbound right now
Channels, hooks, messaging, AI tooling. What’s working this month, not what worked five years ago.
Ramp problems and quota math
Pipeline gaps, when to push back, what to do when the founder keeps moving the line. The operator-level reality of the seat.
Post-mortems on deals that got away
The deal you thought you had. What you missed. What signal would have shown it earlier.
Who fits

Operators only.

I review every request personally. Not everyone is right for the room — and the bar is what protects the value for everyone inside.

A fit
  • Current Founding AE at seed or Series A B2B SaaS
  • Recent Founding AE between roles
  • Anyone sitting in the seat or has been recently
Not a fit
  • Recruiters or vendors
  • AEs at established sales orgs
  • Founders looking for hiring intel

If you’re in the seat, you belong in the room.

Request access through the LinkedIn group. I review every one personally — usually within a couple days.
