Network News: Josh Tulloch, the get-sh*t-done guy
A trusted network is something no entrepreneur should be without
Meet Josh, the get-sh*t-done guy
Back in February Josh Tulloch came to his first meal with 9others and he was perfectly suited to it because he’s a problem solver; so addicted to solving them in fact that he does this for a living…
Josh has worked with YC (Prolific) and Techstars (Stashpad) backed startups where he filled capacity gaps across customer success, data analysis, user research, operations, marketing, recruitment, community building, growth experimentation, business reporting, you name it.
Like we said, the get-sh*t-done guy.
Do you need someone like this?
What got you here won’t get you there
Growth is ultimately what all founders want for their business. And when it does come founders think all their problems will be solved. But…
With growth come the consequences of growth:
🔥 More and more (and more) fires to put out 🧯
🚨 EVERYTHING FEELS LIKE IT’S THE MEGA-IMPORTANT THING🚨
🔧 Skills gaps open up across the team 🤷
Systems built at the start of the journey can't quite handle the strain of the growth.
So it can get very messy, very quickly. Here’s where Josh might come in…
Hear it from Josh…
3-Day Sprint: Success or your money back
“When I joined Prolific, a YC-backed startup, their growth hit 4x. The team wasn’t big enough to handle the surge, so I became their fixer — solving problems across customer success, data analysis, user research, operations, marketing, recruitment, community building, growth experimentation, business reporting, you name it.
“Similarly with Stashpad, a Techstars backed startup; they had secured investment, scaled their team but didn't have the growth to sustain their operations. So I came in and conducted quick, ‘hacky’ growth experiments which eventually led to us finding product-market-fit and user growth, after a product overhaul.
“I actually thrive in that kind of ambiguity. Set me unreasonable deadlines, and watch the operational fires get extinguished. Bring me your big and your boring and everything in-between”.
“If any of the above resonates with you, I’m offering myself for a 3-day trial sprint to help you solve your most pressing problems. If the trial goes well, we can choose to work together some more. If it doesn’t go well (it will 😉), I’ll give your money back and we’ll go our separate ways.
Don’t become a victims of your own success, call me 😜
“So what exactly will you get? As you can see from above, it’s a bit of everything. Fundamentally, my job is to help you control the chaos and fill the gaps as you scale. Traditionally I'd be called a Chief of Staff (with a specialism in growth experimentation). But, I'd call myself a professional do-er.
“Simply, I just get sh*t done.
“I specialise in quickly solving hard problems for startups, utterly unfazed by chaos and messy growth. In fact, I relish it. For me, it’s the thrill of the build — a joy that only comes from helping incredible founders do incredible things”.
