My Approach

I start by understanding the founder’s business objectives, but more importantly, what’s actually bothering them. What feels unclear, stuck, or not working. That usually opens up a more honest and focused conversation. Very quickly it becomes an intimate discussion - not just about marketing tactics, but about vision, direction, and the gap between where the company is today and where they want it to be. From there, I help translate that vision into something concrete: who the company is really for, what makes it different, and how to communicate that in a way the market will understand. I focus on clarity and alignment, not noise - defining the core story, the right audience, and the message that can actually move the business forward. I don’t try to cover everything. I prioritize the one or two decisions that will have the biggest impact on go-to-market - positioning, messaging, or strategic direction - and make sure the founder leaves with a clear way forward.

What to Expect

Founders should come with a clear view of their business goals and objectives, even if things still feel unclear or unresolved. Bringing a website, pitch deck, or a specific challenge is helpful, but not required. The session itself is a mix of conversation, brainstorming, and focused thinking. We’ll quickly get to the core of what’s not working or not clear - whether it’s positioning, messaging, or overall go-to-market direction - and challenge assumptions along the way. This is not a lecture or a generic framework. It’s an active working session, where we think together and shape ideas in real time. By the end of the hour, founders will walk away with clearer thinking, sharper direction, and concrete next steps they can immediately apply.

Founders Come to Me When...

In Michal's Words

“I believe branding is not a layer on top of the business - it’s what determines whether your go-to-market actually works.”

Michal Gat, GTM Advisor

“I think most companies underestimate how much weak positioning is costing them in pipeline, conversion, and deal size.”

Michal Gat, GTM Advisor

“I don’t see storytelling as creative work - I see it as a tool to drive clarity, focus, and ultimately revenue.”

Michal Gat, GTM Advisor

“I believe if your messaging doesn’t change how people sell, buy, or invest in you, it’s not doing its job.”

Michal Gat, GTM Advisor

“I think many startups fail not because of product, but because they never make the strategic decisions that define how they go to market.”

Michal Gat, GTM Advisor
