“Frederic was a critical partner in helping us figure out how to build our sales org. Most ‘advisors’ will give you kind of bullshit generic advice that they read in a business book somewhere. Frederic has the actual chops to speak from experience and tell it like it is and isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty. Case in point: we spent a bunch of time whiteboarding together on sales org design and the role req for our VP Sales, and he even interviewed candidates for us! Love working with this guy—he’s basically my ’emergency contact’ on go-to-market.”

“OpNet as a group are not only great humans, they are the dream team of investors. I can confidently say that they have been the most consistently helpful and thoughtful investors on our cap table. I could not recommend working with them more highly if you get the chance.”

“Chuck has been a phenomenal partner to Trustworthy. He has brokered and primed the majority of our successful seed round venture and angel conversations. He’s advised our team on everything from pitching to product to diversity & inclusion across the company. Chuck and the OpNet group (Freddie, Jacques, Avid, Ryan) are a phenomenal set of investors and operators. We feel fortunate to have them as part of our extended team. I have no hesitation in recommending them to other founders. Thanks, Chuck and OpNet!!”

“Frederic was critical in introducing us to 90% of our angel investors and Jon Runyan provided invaluable legal advice during our fundraising round. OpNet introduced us to one of our first customers and while we were working on our product, the team worked through any questions I had. I expect OpNet to be even more useful once we start actively selling. In short, I would definitely recommend OpNet to other founders.”

“Avid has repeatedly provided just in time key advice, particularly around engaging with VCs and has always made herself available to me, despite being on holiday or in varied parts of the world. This has proven to be particularly helpful in high pressure situations where I needed someone to take the edge off funding conversations and understand multiple perspectives around the table. Thank you Avid for being a phenomenal partner to Iterative Scopes!”

“Having a successful business leader like Frederic in our corner in the early days of Modern Health provided us with unfettered access to real advice. When I met with Freddy we dove into some of the early challenges around our GTM strategy and how to scale the sales org. As a founder and someone who has successfully taken a company from day 1 to IPO, he offered actionable advice that was formative to signing our first deals, closing big hires, and establishing a high-performance Sales culture at Modern Health. You simply don’t get this type of advice from traditional investors who haven’t sat in a high-pressure seat as a founder, leader, and operator.”

“Freddy is the perfect partner as an entrepreneur. Where VCs can often offer you the latest platitude from Twitter, when you bring Freddy a problem what comes back is a solution from an operator, for an operator.”

“To have Ryan as an investor and advisor has been instrumental to me and to People.ai – it’s not an exaggeration to say that we would not have gotten as far as we have without him. His go- to-market advice, his perspective on hiring, his coaching around how to work with enterprise customers, and his introductions have been incredibly valuable throughout our journey.”

“My first meeting with Frederic raised our company’s trajectory immediately. After understanding where we were on Sales process, he immediately whiteboarded our model and gave me 3-4 imperatives that transformed our approach – staffing strategy, qualification strategy, deal terms, forecasting. He intro’d us to his network, a number of whom immediately joined our round.”

“Brad has been awesome to work with for Guru. He is truly collaborative, working closely with our team to help us understand how to make the most out of our partnerships. And since being part of our Seed round, Brad and his team helped to connect us to many of the top VCs in the industry, some of whom have since gone on to invest in Guru in later rounds.” 

“Meeting Frederic right after I incorporated Neeva was transformational: he really drilled the value of early (from Day 1!) conversations with customers and continuous product iteration into me and my team. His crisp categorization of products into pain medicine and vitamins helps every product decision we make!”

“Ryan was an advisor to us from the early days all the way through our acquisition – his advice on product, pricing, and on go to market was indispensable and hugely influential for us. When you combine his advice and expertise with his responsiveness and constant willingness to be there to help, that puts him in a rare class of advisor, in my experience.”
