We build repeatable go-to-market systems for B2B companies stuck between strategy decks that collect dust and growth hacks that don't scale. Enterprise sales DNA. Startup speed. No fluff.
Elite consultancies hand you a 50-page strategy deck and wish you luck. Growth hackers fill your pipeline with leads that never convert. Junior AI agencies automate a broken process and call it innovation.
None of them fix the actual problem: your go-to-market engine doesn't work, and adding speed to a broken system just gets you to the wrong destination faster.
Cognivara exists in the gap between strategy and execution. We diagnose why your deals are stalling, architect a GTM system that matches how your buyers actually buy, and stay embedded until the revenue is flowing.
"AI doesn't fix a broken process. It just accelerates your arrival at the wrong destination."
The Sales Forensic Review
We perform an autopsy on your revenue engine. Through pipeline deep-dives, win/loss interviews, and ground-level discovery, we find out why deals are actually stalling — not why your team thinks they're stalling. We bypass the boardroom narrative to uncover the positioning gaps, qualification failures, and messaging disconnects silently killing your pipeline.
The GTM Foundation
We build the repeatable system that large consultancies skip and growth hackers ignore. ICP definition. Competitive positioning against your real competitor — not the enterprise tools your buyers will never use. Sales process design. Messaging that connects business pain to your solution. Outbound sequences ready to deploy on day one.
Ongoing Tactical Coaching
We don't hand you a playbook and disappear. We stay in the trenches — reviewing deals, coaching discovery calls, refining messaging as your market shifts. We use technology to automate the manual drudgery so your people can focus on what actually closes deals: human insight and real conversations.
Most revenue consultants focus on dashboards, automation, and volume. They measure what's easy, not what matters.
We focus on the ground truth — the insight your buyer didn't know they had.
Most sales consultants focus on volume. Most CRM consultants take top-down requirements from people who haven't carried a bag in a decade. Most AI agencies are run by junior staff who can build a tool but have never sat across from a buyer who doesn't return calls.
Cognivara is different because the person doing the work has 15 years of enterprise sales experience at companies like Salesforce and Microsoft — and chose to build a career in the startup trenches, scaling companies from 40 employees to 500+. We've carried quota. We've built teams. We've sold complex solutions into industries where a bad deal doesn't just lose revenue, it risks lives.
We bring the discipline of enterprise sales methodology to companies that move fast. And we use technology to do the work of a full revenue team — not to replace your people, but to make them dangerous.
Leadership integration — We integrate directly with your existing fractional leadership. If you have a CMO, CFO, or COO, we translate their strategy into operational reality. If you don't, we have a vetted network of senior operators who speak the same language.
B2B Marketing Agency
~$1.5M Revenue
Engaged to fix an underutilized CRM. Discovered the real problem was disconnected positioning — their audience didn't understand what they were selling. Restructured messaging, fixed pricing modeled for the wrong vertical, and built a repeatable sales process from discovery through close.
SaaS Startup
Pre-Revenue, Technical Founder
Built a complete GTM system for a demand forecasting platform: ICP selection, competitive repositioning away from enterprise tools toward the real competitor (the spreadsheet), pilot package design, outbound sequences, and lead qualification scoring.
The Sales Forensic Review is a 45-minute deep-dive into your revenue engine. No slides. No pitch. Just the ground truth about what's actually happening in your deals.
The sales consulting industry is broken in a predictable way. On one side: elite firms that deliver boardroom strategy nobody can execute. On the other: growth hackers and AI agencies staffed by people with two years of experience and a talent for building tools nobody asked for.
In the middle is a gap where most B2B companies actually live. That's the gap Cognivara was built to fill.

I started at the bottom of the sales floor and worked my way up. Account Executive. Sales Engineer. Sales Director. I carried a bag at Salesforce and Microsoft, then deliberately chose the startup world — because that's where the real problems are.
I was employee 50 at Intelex and watched it scale to 500. I was employee 40 at eCompliance and saw it through to acquisition. I've built sales teams from scratch, designed commission structures, recruited AEs, and personally closed deals across highly hazardous industries — mining, energy, construction — where the stakes aren't theoretical.
Most of my 15 years was spent selling EHSQ solutions into industries where safety isn't a checkbox, it's a survival requirement. I learned to sell by uncovering insights my buyers didn't know they had — repositioning safety from a compliance cost center into a competitive advantage. That same approach drives everything I do at Cognivara.
The rigor of Salesforce and Microsoft methodology applied to companies that can't afford 18-month consulting timelines. At startups, you wear every hat. I've built the CRM, written the outbound sequences, coached the reps, and sat in on the deal reviews.
Academic background in Economics and Psychology — specifically Cialdini's work on influence. I combine MEDDIC, Sandler, SPIN Selling, and buyer psychology into a practical framework your reps can use on a call tomorrow.
I've worked as both the seller and the solutions architect. I translate complex product features into business requirements and positioning that resonates with the person signing the check.
I use AI and automation to uplift your employees, not replace them. Technology handles the manual labor. Humans handle insight, empathy, and the judgment calls that close complex deals.
The way we sell has fundamentally changed. In a world where your buyer has access to the same information you do, the salesperson's value isn't in solving a known problem — it's in uncovering the insight the buyer didn't know they had.
That requires balance. The needs of the boardroom with the reality of the seller. The promise of AI with the judgment of experienced humans. Strategy with execution.
Cognivara is built on Kipling's IF — the discipline to hold competing truths in tension and find the path that actually works. We give you the facts, the ground truth, and a plan you can execute this quarter.
When not in the trenches, you'll find me underwater or on the water. Scuba diver. Angler. The patience to observe, the discipline to wait, and the instinct to strike at the right moment.
45 minutes. No slides. No pitch. Just the ground truth about what's actually happening in your pipeline.
