Summary
Ian Smith is a results-driven GTM and enterprise sales leader with nine years scaling revenue engines for B2B SaaS and deep tech companies, and a track record as a 2x exited founder. He translates complex technical products in AI, robotics, and CAD into multi-million dollar contracts with Fortune 500s, most recently architecting enterprise GTM at Zoo and closing $4M-average deals at Scale AI. Ian founded and exited an autonomous warehouse drone startup after raising $7M+ and driving $2.7M revenue, so he combines founder grit with enterprise sales discipline. He builds the RevOps and CRM infrastructure (HubSpot/Salesforce) that lets repeatable, $0-to-$20M+ motions scale. As an investor and advisor, he now helps startups move from unpredictable early sales to automated revenue engines. Based in San Francisco, he pairs hands-on program-building with a rare operational pedigree in both startups and $10B+ enterprises.
