Areas of Expertise

  • Market Winability
    Choose the market where the company can actually win now, based on what buyers will believe today, not what looks attractive on paper.
  • ICP & Positioning
    We rebuild your ICP from conversion data and align positioning so the team can hold it without the founder in the room.
  • Demand Generation
    We identify where demand actually comes from and build a system the company can plan around instead of bet on.
  • Sales & Marketing Handoffs
    We find where the handoff between sales and marketing breaks down and rebuild it so deals move without the founder at every step.
  • Passing the Buyer Test
    We test whether your pipeline, positioning, and commercial story hold before you have to defend them.

More About the Expert:

Caryne Say is the founder of StrataGuide and a commercial strategist for founder-led B2B technology companies.

She works with companies under $10M in revenue, especially those entering or expanding in the US, to help them choose the market they can credibly win and build the commercial system required to win there.

Her work sits where market choice, positioning, sales motion, and founder dependency meet. Most of the companies she helps are not short on effort. They are either trying to grow in a market they cannot yet credibly win, or in the right market with a commercial system that still depends too heavily on the founder.

Across nearly two decades in SaaS, fintech, marketplaces, and healthcare technology, she has built GTM systems that generated more than $90M in attributed revenue, including scaling Grovo from $1M to $8M ARR in 12 months and delivering $26.4M in revenue on $2.32M in spend at Breather.

Her work is built on a simple distinction: revenue growth and building a company that can grow without the founder are not the same thing.

Revenue growth and building a company that can grow without the founder are not the same thing. Caryne focuses on the second.
