The founder is still the only one selling, and it does not scale past the next round.
Fractional go-to-market for B2B startups · US · EU
Your first go-to-market hire, without the hire.
Senior GTM leadership and an AI-powered execution team for seed to Series A B2B startups. Positioning, outbound and content running in 90 days, without adding headcount.
The problem
You need go-to-market before you can afford a VP of Marketing.
Hiring a senior GTM lead takes months of search and ramp-up before anything ships.
Agencies execute without strategy. Consultants deliver strategy and leave. You need both, owned by one person.
The alternatives
Three ways to get go-to-market done.
| Criterion | Full-time GTM hire | Agency | Vega Studio |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to start | Months: search, offer, notice period | A few weeks | 2 weeks |
| Strategy included | Depends on the hire | Rarely | Yes |
| Execution included | Limited to one person's hours | Yes | Yes |
| One accountable owner | Yes | No, an account team | Yes |
| Commitment | Permanent role | Depends on the contract | 3 months minimum |
How it works
The first 90 days.
Position, build, then run and hand over. Each month ends with something you can use, whether or not we keep working together.
Position
ICP, messaging, offer and pricing narrative. You leave knowing exactly who you sell to and what you say.
Build
Outbound engine, CRM, content system and AI agents that produce and test at speed.
Run and hand over
Weekly pipeline reporting, a documented playbook, and a hiring brief for the GTM lead you eventually bring in-house.
Every week you get a written report on meetings booked and pipeline created.
Selected work
Go-to-market work, in concrete terms.
Not campaign metrics. Capabilities these companies did not have before and now own.

Questions
Before you book.
Why not hire someone full-time?
You can, and when the time is right we help you do it. A senior GTM hire takes months to find and ramp, and one person rarely brings both strategy and execution. We start in two weeks, run both from day one, and leave you a hiring brief for the lead you eventually bring in-house.
Which time zones do you work in?
Buenos Aires is one to two hours ahead of US Eastern time depending on the season, so calls with US teams land inside normal working hours. For European teams, the overlap is the European afternoon. We work in English and Spanish.
Do you do the outreach yourselves?
Yes. We define the ICP, build the lists, write the messaging and sequences, and run the outbound, with AI agents doing research and drafting at speed and one accountable senior person owning what goes out. You see meetings booked and pipeline created in a weekly written report.
What happens after 90 days?
You choose. Continue month to month, move the playbook to your own team, or stop. Either way you keep the documented playbook, the messaging and a hiring brief for the GTM lead you eventually bring in-house.
What if we hire our own GTM lead?
That is the outcome the hiring brief is built for. We hand over the playbook and the systems, and can stay on briefly to onboard them if that helps. We are the bridge to that hire, not a replacement for it.
