Mitch’s POV

With 2 decades of experience supporting clinical technology solutions for sponsors and specific commercialization of 4 unique, formal CRO partner programs, ACG’s mission is to ensure our client technologies are positioned to drive material, predictable, and repeatable revenue growth.

Startups and early stage companies need to be mindful to employ the right staff cross-functionally to empower their early commercial efforts.  Getting the "right people on the bus" is critical and not everyone is wired for success in start-up environments.

Why is this so important?

  • Most people don't realize if they’re "built" to work effectively in a company with <100 employees

    • Doesn't mean they aren't talented or capable of success; they just may be on the “wrong bus”

  • Entrepreneurs/founders often pay little attention to the nuanced attributes of those who can best produce for a start-up or early growth stage entity

    • Hiring mistakes are common even when the job description fit looks strong

    • Everyone's a great hire in those early days....until they maybe aren't

  • Early stage companies benefit when those right people are able to seamlessly change “seats” over time, on their bus

    • Repurposing staff with deep institutional knowledge is a low risk/cost and high reward growth strategy

    • Minimizes turnover, creates career pathing, builds cross functional excellence, and attracts like minded talent

By engaging ACG to assess existing staff for fit within the context of the company's development stage and Go-To-Market plan, we can help reduce employee churn and related disruption, and cost.  

ACG is committed to the power of mentorship. We offer limited or ongoing mentorship engagements to ensure Go-To-Market team talent realize their full potential. Seeing mentees grow to achieve great heights, often beyond what they ever envisioned, lights us up the most!
