North American GTM Advisory

Helping Israeli & European B2B SaaS companies
break into North America

25+ years building and scaling enterprise software revenue across EMEA, APAC, and now North America. I bridge the gap between how world-class software companies are built — and how North American enterprise buyers actually buy.

B2B SaaS GTM executive with 25+ years operating across EMEA, APAC, and Israel — most recently as VP Global Sales at Agora, where I lead North American, South American, and Australian revenue. Previously VP Sales at JFrog, NICE, SAP, HP, and Comverse.

The translation problem nobody talks about

Most Israeli and European software companies entering North America get the product right but struggle with the market. The enterprise buyer behaves differently. The sales cycle is longer. The channel dynamics are unfamiliar. And the hyperscaler co-sell motion — which increasingly determines who wins — is completely foreign.

I've lived on both sides of this gap. My entire career was built in EMEA and Israel — I understand how these companies think and how they're led. For the past two years at Agora, I've been running North American revenue. That combination is rare, and it's exactly what founders and CROs need when they're serious about the market.

03
Fractional VP Sales — North America

Simple, accountable, operator-led

You engage me directly — not a team of analysts. Every engagement has defined deliverables and milestones.

1
Discovery Call
30–45 minute conversation. No pitch. I want to understand your company, your North American ambitions, and where you're stuck.
2
Scoping Proposal
A written proposal within 48 hours. Clear scope, defined deliverables, fixed or monthly pricing — no surprises.
3
Engagement Kickoff
We agree on a cadence, access to relevant stakeholders, and a 30-day milestone. I start immediately once signed.
4
Delivery & Review
Regular check-ins, transparent reporting, and a board-ready summary at the end of each phase. You always know where things stand.

Who I work best with

🇮🇱 🇪🇺
Israeli or European HQ
You're based in Israel or Europe, have product-market fit at home, and North America is your next serious bet.
📈
Series B to Pre-IPO
You have $3M–$50M ARR, real board commitment behind the expansion, and a CEO or CRO who is the buyer.
🔁
Stalled or Starting
Either you're making a first serious push into North America, or you have some presence but it's not scaling predictably.
