Who it's for

Growing companies ($2M-$30M revenue) that can't justify a $250K/year full-time CTO but need someone owning technology decisions at the leadership level.

A full-time CTO costs you $250-350K/year plus equity. You get the same strategic brain for $130-260K/year ($10-20K per 4 weeks) — and you also get a team that can execute on the decisions we make together."

Why this changes the business model:

• We are not just a vendor. We are your strategic partner, and executing team.

• We will be advising on your full stack (email, accounting, marketing, security, infrastructure)

It Gets Even Better

Bundling Sherpa with a retainer gets a discount on the retainer — the strategic work naturally reduces rework and scoping overhead, so the retainer is more efficient.
