1:1 Startup Coaching

This call is for founders and company representatives navigating the early stages of building a startup.

I bring 7+ years of hands-on startup experience, having built 15+ digital products, worked closely with founders as Chief of Staff, helped raise $11M+ (Seed → Series A), and helped my previous company get into Google and Stanford accelerator ecosystems.

I currently mentor founders through NITI Aayog (AIM), AIC-BIMTECH, Favcy Venture Builders, and leading universities like IIT Kharagpur, Masters' Union, Mesa School, etc.

I’ve worked across EdTech, Mental Health, youth-focused startups, and B2B SaaS, including enterprise engagements with likes of HUL, Titan, Tanishq, Tata, Hero, and Zepto.

What We’ll Do in This Call

This is a focused, context-specific working session.

We’ll:

1. Understand where you are in the 0 → 1 journey
2. Identify the real bottlenecks (product, growth, fundraising, systems)
3. Decide where my experience can add immediate value
4. Walk away with clear, actionable next steps

Areas I Can Support With

Ideation and Getting to Right Problem to Solve: Finding white spaces, brainstorming on ideas, and finding the right ones based on global trends and your personalised context.

Fundraising & Pitching: Pitch story aligned to stage, deck review, delivery coaching, defining the right investor ask, and fundraising readiness (Seed → Series A).

Product & Strategy: Product vision to execution, user feedback loops, prioritisation, competitive positioning, PRD clarity, and design-thinking driven product decisions.

GTM, Partnerships & Growth: Customer discovery, B2B and enterprise sales motion, partnerships & integrations, launch strategy, and non-traditional growth levers.

Accelerators & Ecosystem Leverage: Identifying the right programs, cracking selection, maximising cohort value, and converting accelerators into long-term partnerships or clients.

Systems, Hiring & Operations: Org and job design, smarter hiring practices, goal tracking, sales & marketing funnels, internal tools, and early operational structure.

Branding & Narrative: Founder and company positioning, website story, content strategy, optics clean-up, and early brand coherence.

How I Think

One pattern I’ve seen repeatedly: Founders are taught how to grow fast — but not how to grow well.

When clarity, skills, systems, and inner stability aren’t designed together, startups scale — and quietly start breaking. This lens also informs my work at Roobaroo.ai, where the focus is sustainable growth, not just speed.

Please Note: This call is only for founders or company representatives.

Students and professionals should explore other session options.

If you’re building something meaningful and want grounded — I’m happy to help :)
