Although I had the title of CEO, I wore many different hats for the organization, while I led and helped build the software company from zero to several million dollars in annual recurring revenue. As CEO, I led the strategic vision of the company and led all fundraising efforts to raise capital for the business. I also led and managed the technical development team of engineers (without even a CTO on the team) and was in charge of product development and the product roadmap for the software. I handled all budgeting and financial modeling responsibilities for the company, as well as all HR related issues and systems. I also oversaw all operational activities for the company along with managing the sales, account management, customer success and business development teams.Highlighted achievements:• Led the company to a 60% annualized growth rate during my tenure.• Helped take the company from zero to multi-million dollars in recurring revenue.• Helped raise ~$2MM in capital for the company during my tenure.• Helped grow the customer base to represent over 100+ brands in the sports, music & entertainment space. The customer base had a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 9.61 out of 10.• I was the guiding, leading and discerning force of getting the company through the COVID-19 pandemic successfully. The company continued its growth during this unprecedented time and reached profitability in late 2020.

I ran all operational aspects of the company. I was the #2 person at the company and was the CEO's right-hand man from the very beginning. I helped the company grow to double digit millions in revenue in just the first couple of years of business. While I oversaw operations, I wore many different hats, ranging from finance, accounting, product development, human resources, and overseeing our affiliate marketing program, just to name a few. This was great experience for me leading up to my next role as CEO for CounterFind, since I had a great mentor/CEO at FanPrint who coached me and felt comfortable giving me CEO type responsibilities. Highlighted achievements:• Helped lead the company from $500K in revenue in its first full year to $10MM in revenue the following year.• Built a strong marketing program of 100+ affiliate marketers.• Managed licensing partnerships with some of the biggest brands in sports and entertainment (i.e., Collegiate Licensing Company, Disney / Star Wars, NFLPA, MLBPA, to name a few).
