Established the CRM, sales team, and acquisition process that helped grow annual recurring revenue from $365K to $1.1M.

Give the team a pipeline it can actually work.

Eric HollyFounder, Tillerstone

An operator in your corner

I’ve been responsible
for making it work.

I’ve led sales teams, run operations, built CRMs, hired and trained reps, managed acquisition, and worked deals myself. That experience shapes how I consult.

I look at how the whole business brings in and keeps customers: the people doing the work, the processes they follow, and the technology supporting them. Then I help build and run what’s needed.

My work spans SaaS, property technology, insurance, industrial sales, and service businesses. Tillerstone brings that operating experience to founders and growing teams.
