Learn How To Rapidly Grow Your Business
Business coaching and support for entrepreneurs in marketing, sales and operations.
This site is built for individuals, solopreneurs and small businesses. Public companies, venture backed and private equity owned companies may be better served at Prendessa.com
Confidence
Because you know you're doing everything right.
Leadership
So others can thrive because you lead with competence and character.
Results
Because your methods are proven, your value is clear, and your customers are thrilled.
Prospects are trying not to listen to you. You're blocked.
Business owners have always wanted more at-bats with prospects. However, marketing and Internet noise are overwhelming to them so they shut you (and others) out.
There should be a reliable means for you to engage and get a fair shot. Fortunately, there is.
The Solution Isn't Complicated
We focus on core problem areas for small businesses using proven solutions. Services are clearly defined with contractually enforced deliverables at a fixed, non-recurring price.
Crystal Clear Messaging
Your choice of words determine whether or not a prospect will listen to you and move forward. Nothing else. Use the best of modern frameworks to clarify all your messages, from ads and websites that work, through all your content collateral and talking points.
Marketing and Sales
So many entrepreneurs are the only people in a company that can reliably close deals. That causes stress, burnout and mistakes. It also stops growth when you're out of bandwidth. Learn how to automate processes that scale and maintain quality.
Strategic Growth Planning
Geographically based providers eventually need to expand into new geographies to continue to grow. Learn how to inexpensively replicate your success in other locations without overwhelming yourself and everyone else.
Operations and Processes
The backend of a business can be like an anchor holding you back from the growth you deserve. It also can cause friction and frustration throughout a business. Learn effective, but simple methods to enable simple and easy expansion for your company.
Meet Dave
Over the past 25 years I've been building tech companies as an executive officer in Go-To-Market roles. With my teammates, we raised hundreds of millions in venture and private equity resulting in 10 exits which created over $14B in value for investors and employees.
Startups today have big challenges to overcome. The sheer number of them creates so much noise in the market that even very good ones struggle to be noticed. They're ignored.
At the start of the pandemic I walked away from operator roles to focus on helping startups, small companies and solo entrepreneurs break loose in their markets.

Testimonial
Bay Area Mental Health is a provider of advanced mental health services located in the San Francisco Bay Area.
"I created BAMH to serve clients with serious problems. When I began working with Dave I had two employees in a small office and I struggled to fill our schedules. Now we are approaching 2 dozen employees, we're a multimillion dollar company, we're expanding, and I hired an experienced CEO so I had more time to concentrate on developing advanced services for clients. It feels amazing to be able to help a lot of people, and it also feels great to grow the business into something I'm proud of. I recommend Dave highly."
