European Startups → US Revenue
Most European founders get the US wrong. They have the product, but try to run it like a second European market. We take the time needed to create the strategy and execute on entering the US market, so you don't have to.
01. Entity
US bank account. Employer ID. The legal foundation most founders spend months getting wrong. We do it in weeks. You can't operate, hire, or collect payments in the US without it.
02. Go-to-Market
Your European playbook remastered for the US. We build your US ICP, positioning, and outbound motion from scratch. Different buyers. Different cycles. Different expectations.
03. Revenue
We embed in your business and close your first US deals. We make the calls, run the pipeline, and hand you a working revenue engine, or stay on as your US team.
Why GEM7
Lawyer. GTM consultant. Sales hire. Three vendors, three invoices, three timelines. None of them talk to each other. That's the typical US expansion. Here's ours.
| The typical approach | With GEM7 | |
|---|---|---|
| Vendors | 3–5 siloed vendors with different priorities, time zones, and schedules. Nobody owns the result. | One partner. One contract. One point of contact who holds the full picture from day one. |
| Time | Managing the process yourself is a full-time job. The learning curve is steep and the mistakes are expensive. | One contact in Europe, working around your schedule. We've done this before so you don't have to figure it out. |
| Cost | Overhead creep. Legal fees, consultant retainers, and a fractional sales hire stack up fast before you've closed anything. | No headcount, no office, no stacking invoices. You pay for outcomes, not infrastructure. |
| Support | Vendors go quiet after kickoff. Questions go unanswered and problems surface too late. | High-touch throughout. Frequent updates, direct access, and a team that flags problems before you notice them. |
If we don't hit the agreed milestones, you get 90% of your upfront payment back.

How we work
Every engagement starts with a conversation. Tell us where you are and we'll show you exactly what we do from there.
01. Consult → 02. Strategy → 03. Launch
One engagement covers everything: entity formation, GTM build, and your first US revenue. One team, one contract, no handoffs.
02. Strategy → 03. Launch
We build your US ICP, outbound playbook, and pipeline from scratch. Different buyers, different cycles, different rules — your European playbook won't work here.
03. Forward Deployed
GEM7 operates as your US revenue team — making calls, running pipeline, closing accounts. High-touch, no full-time hire overhead, no advisors handing you a framework that you have to execute on.
