Vlad Khomutov I help entrepreneurs launch their first business
Toronto, Ontario
In the past 17 years I’ve founded 8 technology companies, started 2 consulting agencies, and helped more than 20 startups go to market. Global agencies call me when they need to design solutions for companies like Visa, BMW, and Disney.
Just like a personal trainer who helps everyday people become athletes, I help new entrepreneurs make their first $100,000 and scale their business to $1M valuation within a year.

VK$1.67/min per minuteNew ArrivalI Will Help You Launch Your First BusinessVlad Khomutov • Toronto, OntarioCreated 9 years ago in Product & Design / Lean StartupIf I had to boil down my 17 years of experience launching startups, it would come down to this: there are only three possibilities when you try to turn your idea into a million dollar business: 1. Your idea sucks and nobody wants it. Just like an experienced skipper can look at a boat and immediately see how seaworthy she is, I can look at your idea and immediately tell you how much business potential it has + create a scalable model. This step sets you up for validation. 2. Your idea is good, but you can't show the value. I know many smart founders that couldn't sell gold if it was half price - in other words, they don't know how to communicate the value. I can help you create a laser-focused value statement designed to get you to early validation. This step sets you up for early market traction. 3. Your idea is in demand, but you can't scale. Lack of growth kills a startup in a long, drawn out way. Explosive growth can kill your startup overnight - a lesson I learned when one of my startups was featured by Apple as "New and Noteworthy." Since then, I learned how to build for scale of operations and technology which proved to work when I had to create a real-time app for American Idol. This step sets you up for product-market fit and your first $100k in revenue. Once you've prepared for these three possibilities, you'll be on your way to scaling beyond $1M - at that point, I can help you with your seed / Series A planning. It's a lot easier to raise funds with a cashflow business and real customers.Vlad Khomutov Toronto, OntarioNew Arrival
