For European companies entering the US
US Launch Partner
Your first senior US sales leader, from day one.
You’ve proven your product at home. Maybe you’ve founded a US entity or won a first American customer. Now you need a US pipeline that doesn’t depend on one person’s network, and a headquarters that trusts the US numbers. Joe grew up in Stuttgart, has built his career in the US, and today runs US sales for a German software company. He knows what headquarters expects, what US buyers expect, and where the two clash.
Who it’s for
- German, Austrian, Swiss and other European B2B companies in their first US years
- A US entity founded recently or planned, with few people on the ground
- Leaders who want the US motion right before hiring a US VP of Sales
Problems we solve
- “We have a US company and a first customer. What now?”
- Pricing, contracts and support that make US buyers wait on Germany
- No US forecast headquarters believes
- Direct reps, distributors, agencies, trade shows: too many options, no one to decide
- The risk of a wrong first US hire
What you get
- US Readiness Sprint (4–6 weeks): US ideal customer profile and segments, competitive landscape, US pricing and packaging check, channel recommendation, 90-day pipeline plan, US-ready messaging
- Fractional Head of US Sales: pipeline and forecast cadence, monthly reporting to your board or Geschäftsführung, US CRM setup, outbound motion, hands-on help on early deals
- Hire and hand off: profile, interviews and onboarding for your first US sales hire, plus a documented US playbook
- AI-assisted prospecting from week one, so your US pipeline starts building early.
