Partner with Scale Direction

We help startups make better product and business decisions by building clean, reliable data infrastructure - so they can scale with clarity, not chaos.

Some of our best clients have come via trusted introductions. If you work closely with early-stage teams, as a product advisor, fractional exec, or startup consultant, we'd love to collaborate.

Who This Is For

We work well with:

  • Fractional CPOs / CFOs / COOs
  • Startup advisors and generalist consultants
  • VC platform or portfolio support teams
  • Product, operations, or finance professionals embedded in early-stage teams

You're likely someone who:

  • Knows when a startup is struggling to get clarity from its data
  • Wants to help them solve that problem well (without solving it yourself)
  • Values being able to introduce a credible, high-value solution

What Scale Direction Does

Startups often reach a point where:

  • Metrics are scattered across tools
  • Reporting is slow, manual, and unreliable
  • No one fully trusts the numbers in the board deck
  • Product teams are flying blind

We work with them to:

  • Understand what they actually need to know to grow
  • Design and implement clean, scalable data infrastructure
  • Build clarity into how they make decisions across product, finance, and growth

The Referral Offer

We offer:

  • £5,000 for every successful client intro
  • + £5,000 per year they continue with us
  • Intros must convert to signed clients
  • No need to "sell", just a warm intro where you believe there's a real fit
  • You can refer as many companies as you like

We also run some work quietly on retainer with venture funds and advisors - we're open to creative models here too.

What Makes a Good Referral?

We're a great fit for startups that are:

  • Post-Seed to Series B
  • Struggling to get consistent metrics across teams
  • Planning to scale hiring, GTM, or funding and need clarity before they do

Ideal points of contact:

  • Founders / CEOs
  • Heads of Product or Ops
  • CFOs / FP&A Leads

How to Refer

Just make a warm intro by email or LinkedIn, cc'ing [email protected]

If you prefer, send them this page and suggest they reach out directly.

We'll keep you in the loop and confirm eligibility. If it converts, we'll pay promptly - and again annually for any retained work.
