Saachi Pole

I've been through the full spectrum of scaling challenges, from zero-to-one at early-stage startups to one-to-ten at growth companies like BrowserStack. After building my career at Deloitte and Bain & Co, where I specialized in tech investments and SaaS strategy, I made the leap to hands-on growth roles that transformed how I think about sustainable scaling. At BrowserStack, I was one of the first growth hires and built our monetization strategy from scratch, creating frameworks that unlocked new revenue streams. At AbstractOps, I tackled the opposite challenge: finding product-market fit and building our first scalable acquisition channels, including a comprehensive SEO content engine. Now, as a founder myself, I understand the daily reality of bootstrapping and making every dollar count. I've also experienced the unique challenges of non-tech ventures, having launched a curly hair care brand in India. On Growth Mentor, I can help you with: ✔️ Finding your first customers, identifying the right channels, and testing efficiently without burning cash ✔️ Rejigging your business model to maximize revenue from existing usage and customers ✔️ Building sustainable acquisition engines, particularly in SEO/content marketing ✔️ Scaling internationally with limited resources ✔️ Making strategic decisions when every dollar matters Having worked across three continents and multiple industries, I bring a unique perspective on adapting growth strategies to different markets and contexts. I'm here because I deeply value the mentorship I've received throughout my career, mentors who transformed my trajectory, and I'm excited to pay it forward while staying connected to the startup community. Ways we can work together: • Growth audit to identify bottlenecks, missed opportunities, and quick wins • Growth and monetization strategy aligned to your stage and constraints • 1–3 months of hands-on advisory, with a clear action plan to identify, test, and scale the right growth channels for your business Let's tackle your growth challenges together!

  Pricing strategy

  After leading monetization at BrowserStack, I learned that pricing isn't just about numbers—it's about unlocking value. I've rejigged business models to create new revenue streams and optimize existing ones. Whether you're launching your first pricing model or ready for that next wave of growth, I'll help you maximize revenue without alienating customers.

  Product market fit

  Having worked with both pre-PMF and post-PMF companies, I understand the critical differences in approach. At Abstract Ops, I helped navigate the journey to PMF through systematic channel testing and customer development. I'll help you recognize the signals, iterate efficiently, and know when you're ready to scale.

  SEO

  At Abstract Ops, we built an entire SEO content engine from scratch that became a primary growth driver. I understand how to create content strategies that actually convert, not just rank. From keyword research to content architecture, I'll share the frameworks that work for bootstrapped startups looking to build organic growth channels.
