Looking for a Co-founder,
Not an Employee

I'm Mike, the technical founder of SkoutLab.

I can write code. I can build AI systems. I can ship product.

What I can't do: make the world know this product exists.

I'm looking for someone complementary — if you're good at GTM, sales, content, and customer development, and you want to build something from zero together, let's talk.

The Problem

86% of long-term revenue comes from just 18% of leads. Enterprise companies have $50K+ tools and dedicated analysts to find that 18%. Mid-market companies are flying blind. We're building the intelligence layer to close that gap.

12 Months From Now

If this works, here's what success looks like in a year:

  • 01We have 20+ paying customers (or high-quality design partners)
  • 02You've built a repeatable customer acquisition engine
  • 03Product has clear PMF signals — customers renew and refer
  • 04I can focus on product while you own growth
  • 05We're ready for seed funding (or profitable bootstrapping)
You Might Be Someone Who

Done GTM at a larger company, but bored — want to build from scratch

Been through early-stage startup life, know how hard 0-to-1 really is

Can write — blogs, LinkedIn posts, cold emails, case studies

Comfortable talking to customers directly, not afraid of rejection

Willing to take $0 salary + significant equity, ready to go all-in

You Don't Need To
  • ✕Be an "expert" in any specific field
  • ✕Have a perfect resume from brand-name companies
  • ✕Have worked in data/analytics before
  • ✕Have 5+ years of anything
Next Step

Don't send a resume. Send me an email with your thoughts on:

  1. 1.Why does the ICP drift problem interest you?
  2. 2.What would you do in your first 30 days?
  3. 3.What's the hardest GTM challenge you've tackled?

Why This, Why Now?

The Market Gap

Enterprise has 6sense, Demandbase, dedicated RevOps teams. Mid-market has... spreadsheets. That's a $10B+ gap.

The Timing

AI makes data analysis 100x faster. What took consultants 6 weeks now takes minutes. First-mover advantage is real.

The Equity

This is a co-founder search, not a hire. Expect meaningful equity that reflects the risk and contribution.

The Reality

No salary to start. Fully remote. Unglamorous work. But if we get this right, we build something that matters.

Not the right fit but know someone who might be? Intros appreciated
