The Revenue Gap

Most Companies Don't Have
a Revenue Problem

They have a leadership problem. A go-to-market strategy that hasn't scaled. A sales org built on heroics instead of process. A board that lacks commercial operating experience to govern growth effectively.

JanChar closes that gap — not with theory, but with the operator instincts that come from building and leading revenue teams at Microsoft, Oracle, Zscaler, MongoDB, and Orca Security.

Recent Impact

What Operator-Level Leadership Looks Like

In our most recent CRO engagement, we inherited a sales organization that needed a complete transformation. Here's what happened.

+53%
Global revenue growth in two fiscal years — while simultaneously restructuring the entire sales organization.
2.2x
Rep productivity — monthly GP per rep more than doubled by raising the talent bar and implementing disciplined sales methodology.
70%
Salesforce turnover executed with zero revenue disruption. Rebuilt the team while maintaining margin stability throughout.
303
Net-new logos acquired in a single fiscal year. Built a repeatable new business engine from scratch.
+180%
Year-over-year GP growth in the first two months of the following fiscal year. The rebuilt team didn't just hold ground — it accelerated.
+41%
Second-half acceleration over first half as the new team hit stride. Q4 delivered the strongest quarter in company history.
Sales + RevOps + Marketing + Legal
Consolidated four functions under one CRO by leveraging AI across the revenue stack — automating pipeline analytics, marketing operations, contract workflows, and sales enablement. Eliminated functional silos, reduced overhead, and accelerated decision-making while maintaining governance and compliance. The result: a leaner executive team operating at the speed and precision that typically requires three to four additional department heads.

Two Ways to Engage

Every engagement is grounded in operating experience — not consultant theory. Flexible structures designed for the pace of growth companies.

Fractional CRO

Embedded revenue leadership for companies that need a seasoned operator — not another consultant deck. GTM strategy, sales team build-out, pipeline architecture, and execution discipline.

  • Go-to-market strategy and execution
  • Sales organization design and hiring
  • Pipeline and forecasting architecture
  • Sales methodology implementation
  • Revenue operations optimization

Board Advisory

Strategic revenue oversight for boards that need commercial operating experience at the governance level. Assessment, accountability, and the pattern recognition that only comes from running the number.

  • Revenue strategy and oversight
  • CRO and sales leadership assessment
  • Market expansion and channel strategy
  • M&A commercial due diligence
  • Quarterly business review preparation
Why JanChar

Operator Experience, Not Consultant Theory

Most fractional CROs are advisors. We've carried the number. Built the teams. Closed the deals. That's the difference.

Revenue Operating DNA

12 leadership roles from Account Manager to CRO. Not a career consultant — an operator who has personally built and led revenue teams that consistently overachieve.

Enterprise Scale Expertise

Proven at Microsoft, Oracle, Zscaler, MongoDB, Orca Security, and Securonix. Deep pattern recognition across cloud, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and enterprise SaaS.

Turnaround Track Record

Repeatedly turned worst-performing regions into best-performing. Built teams from zero to full capacity in under 90 days. Six-time Presidents Club across multiple companies.

AI-Augmented Execution

Proven ability to collapse RevOps, Marketing, and Legal into the CRO function using AI — automating pipeline analytics, marketing operations, contract workflows, and enablement. Fewer executives, faster decisions, better outcomes.

About

James Veeneman

Founder, JanChar LLC

25+ years building and leading revenue organizations across enterprise technology — from early-career enterprise sales at Xerox and Sophos, through progressive leadership at Microsoft, Oracle, Securonix, MongoDB, Zscaler, and Orca Security, to CRO-level operating responsibility.

The through-line is consistent: step into underperforming organizations, recruit exceptional talent, implement disciplined go-to-market methodology, and deliver outsized results. Multiple turnarounds from worst-performing region to best. Teams built from zero to full capacity in under 90 days. Most recently, used AI to consolidate four executive functions under a single CRO role — proving that the right leader with the right tools can do the work of an entire C-suite layer.

Today, I bring that same operator-level capability to growth-stage and mid-market technology companies through JanChar LLC — on a fractional and advisory basis. Based in the Greater Seattle Area, working with companies across North America.
