Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Donohue is a seasoned growth and marketing executive with 23+ years driving go-to-market strategy, demand generation, and brand repositioning for enterprise software and cloud platforms. He has repeatedly turned marketing into a predictable revenue engine—delivering multi-million dollar pipeline gains, rebranding initiatives that elevated market awareness, and operationalizing "lead to revenue" cultures at PE-backed and public companies. Comfortable as a fractional CMO/CRO or a full-time executive, he scales teams and GTM motions across startups and $500M+ organizations, often rebuilding partner and channel programs to accelerate product-market fit. Not obvious at first glance: he has led transitions spanning startup pivots, M&A integrations, and IPO-era transformations, briefing boards and investors while reporting to C-suite and notable leaders. Based in Cary, NC, Michael blends analytical rigor with creative storytelling to find untapped market opportunities and sustainably grow ARR.
