“Paul brings a unique combination of strategy and hands-on problem solving to every business situation. His familiarity with the broad tech ecosystem, end-to-end marketing execution, and what it takes to build a business make him a really valuable partner when you’re stuck with the trickiest of problems. I both learned a lot and achieved a lot in my time working with him.”

“Thanks again for joining the bootcamp last week. It was extremely helpful to hear your framework and apply it to my business. I started drafting a pitch deck a few months ago. Everything about it felt wrong, but I wasn’t sure why. It wasn’t until your session that it clicked and I knew instantly what was missing. I was telling the wrong story for that particular audience. Just wanted to say thank you again for making fundraising feel accessible to new founders.

“Few better returns on investment for Austin startups than hiring SEO’Brien. If I saw “we’re going to allocate 10% of raise to hire Paul…” in “Use of Funds” in early-stage capital raise I would be way more inclined to invest.”
