Work With Me

Let's find the next honest step.

Q: Who is Jonathan Engle's founder coaching for?

Jonathan works with: Founders building to their first million in revenue who have traction but no real motion yet. People who are smart and working hard but spinning wheels in a specific place. Founders who want a practitioner, not a theorist — someone who has actually done the thing. People who can handle honest feedback and would rather hear the truth than feel good. Founders with ADHD or ADHD-adjacent operating styles who need systems that fit their brain.

Q: Who is Jonathan Engle's coaching NOT for?

This probably isn't a fit for: Pre-idea or very early pre-revenue founders (not enough to work with yet). Founders looking for someone to validate decisions they've already made. Anyone who needs a full-time fractional executive (not available for that right now).

I work with early-stage founders who are stuck. Not in a catastrophic way, but in the ordinary way where things aren't moving the way they should and it's not obvious why. Usually the answer is somewhere between a systems problem and a clarity problem. Sometimes it's both.

I don't promise outcomes I can't deliver. I don't pitch you on a twelve-week transformation. I help you see what's actually happening, build the right thing next, and get moving again.

What I work on

Go-to-Market

ICP definition, outbound systems, cold calling and email frameworks, first sales motion. I've been the first sales rep before. I know what it feels like to start from zero with no playbook.

Cold outbound ICP Sales systems GTM motion

CRM & RevOps

HubSpot implementation, pipeline architecture, contact and company properties, deal stages that mirror your actual sales process. CRM as a strategic tool, not a data graveyard.

HubSpot Pipeline design RevOps Reporting

Operational Structure

Goal-setting frameworks (GOPT), meeting rhythms, priority systems. Turning chaos into something that can scale. Built for how founders actually operate, not how they're supposed to.

Founder Coaching

The harder, less structured work. Thinking traps, narrative gaps, the story you're telling yourself versus what's actually happening. I'm good at this because I've had to do it for myself.

Clarity Decision-making ADHD-aware

Send me a message

Tell me who you are and what you're working on. If it sounds like a fit, I'll respond and we'll find time to talk. No intake form, no automated sequence, no pitch on the call.

What to expect

I read every message and respond to the ones where I think I can actually help. If it's a fit, we'll get on a call. If it's not, I'll tell you that too. I don't do ghost reads.
