Executive Advisory Retainer · Capped at Five · By Application
Executive AI Advisory Retainer
An operator in your corner — weekly calls, a direct line, and board-ready plans from a founder who's raised $8M and shipped 10+ products with AI.
Capped at five executives at any time. You get decisions and shipped systems — not more meetings.

Trusted by founders, PE-backed CFOs, and Fortune 500 leaders.
The Problem
Most executives are leaving massive value on the table.
Your company is using
10–15%
of what AI can actually do for the business.
Your current capacity
12%
What's actually possible
100%
Your team has powerful AI tools, but adoption stays stuck at the surface. Meanwhile, a small number of companies are pulling ahead — every employee saving 16+ hours a week and making faster, better decisions.
The gap isn't technology. It's leadership and execution. Without the right guidance, you fall behind while competitors compound their advantage.
Proof
Real results from leaders like you.
These aren't theory. These are outcomes from executives who worked directly with Mark.
Angel Olavarria, Founder of Strive Skin
“I thought I was a power user. I was using ChatGPT more than anyone I knew. Then I started working with Mark and realized I had no idea what was actually possible.”
“Working with Mark saved me at least 150 to 200+ hours. If I'd tried this on my own, I'd have maybe a quarter of what I have now — and it would have taken 6 months instead of 2.”

“If you're a CEO and you're not building with AI yet, Mark is the guy. He doesn't teach theory — he hands you the keys.”

Who You're Working With
A business builder who got dangerous with AI.
I've spent 13+ years as a CEO and serial founder in B2B SaaS. Raised $8M+. Shipped 10+ products. I know the meetings you're sitting in, the boards you're reporting to, and the decisions you can't punt on. Now I help executives lead with AI—without the McKinsey deck or the 12-month transformation.
Most AI advisors are technologists who learned business. I'm a business builder who learned to use AI as a competitive weapon. That difference shows up in every engagement — you get practical decisions and shipped work, not decks or theory.

- ✓You're AI-curious but time-poor, and accountable for org-wide AI outcomes
- ✓You're ready to make decisions, not run another committee
- ✓You want someone to point at when you make the call — "we brought in a specialist" lands easier in the boardroom
✗Not for you if:
- ✗You want to learn AI personally as an individual
- ✗You need group training for a team of 10+
- ✗You want to write production code yourself

AI Operating Baseline + ranked opportunity map
Board-ready build-vs-buy plans

For context: an internal AI lead runs $250K+ a year and takes six months to hire. A big-firm AI engagement starts at $500K and ends in a deck. This retainer is a fraction of either — and it starts this week.
Scope and investment determined on the call.
We'll figure out if we're a fit. Even if we're not, you'll leave with a clearer view of your next move.
Frequently Asked Questions
The answers your COO, CFO, and Chief of Staff are about to ask you.
How is this different from hiring an internal AI lead or a consultant?
An internal AI hire takes months to source, costs $250K+ all-in, and still has to learn your business from scratch. A big consultancy will sell you a deck and a 12-month "transformation." I plug in this week, live in your Slack, and make real decisions on your actual work — at a fraction of the cost of a hire, with none of the ramp. Most AI advisors are technologists who learned business. I'm a business builder who got dangerous with AI. That's why engagements end with decisions and shipped work, not decks.
What results can I expect in the first 90 days?
By the end of the first month you have a written baseline, a ranked opportunity map, and a measurement framework — so ROI isn't a guess. By day 90 you've shipped real systems (most executives have 2-3 workflows automated or tools live), you have hours-saved-per-week numbers you can take to the board, and you know exactly what's next. The whole point is momentum: decisions made and shipped every single week.
How much time will this require from me?
Sixty minutes a week on the call, plus async pings as needed (most executives use it ~30 minutes a week). Once a quarter we do a longer 90-minute review. That's it. The entire model is built so you delegate the AI work to someone who lives in it daily — and get the leverage without becoming an AI expert yourself.
Is this right for my stage and company size?
This is built for founders and C-suite leaders at Series B+ companies who are serious about AI and don't want to waste time or money on hype. If you're earlier-stage or want to upskill a whole team instead, I'll tell you honestly on the call and point you to a better fit. The relationship is anchored to you as the executive sponsor, but your CTO, COO, or Chief of Staff can join for scoping and reviews.
What's the investment?
This is a high-touch retainer capped at five executives at any time, so scope and investment are set on the call once I understand your business — that way you're paying for outcomes, not a fixed package. Custom builds, when they make sense, are scoped separately. Even if we decide we're not a fit, you'll leave that first call with a clearer picture of your next moves.
We already have ChatGPT or Claude Enterprise. Do we still need this?
The tool is 10% of the problem. Adoption, governance, vendor strategy, and the actual decisions about what to build are the other 90%. That's what this is for.
Do you work with my competitors?
No. Once we engage, I won't take on a direct competitor in your space without your written sign-off. Your strategy stays your strategy.
