PMF Studio for Growth Executives

Get the senior product capacity you need in 2 weeks, not 4 months.

The Challenge

Great product leaders don't fail because of bad strategy. They fail because they run out of time and people.

This is the reality of scaling product orgs: roadmaps grow faster than teams do. Sales commits to features before they exist. The board expects velocity that requires more people than you have. And recruiting? Even when you find great candidates, they're off the market before you can close them.

Roadmap is slipping

Features are late. Milestones are red. Every board meeting, you're explaining delays. You need capacity, not more crisis management.

Team at 120% capacity

Your best people are burning out. They're working weekends, and you're worried about losing them. You need more hands, not longer hours.

Hiring is too slow

That senior PM role has been open for 3 months. Great candidates go off the market in days. You don't have time to wait.

Pressure from all sides

Sales needs features. The CEO wants velocity. The board wants results. You're managing expectations instead of building product.

Our Approach

Deploy senior product capacity in weeks, not months.

Whether you need a diagnostic audit, fractional product leadership, or a full embedded product pod, we provide senior operators who integrate with your team, own outcomes, and deliver results within a quarter. No 4-month recruiting cycles. No onboarding delays. Just the expertise you need, when you need it.

Product audit

Diagnose why velocity is slow, where bottlenecks exist, and what's blocking delivery. 2-week assessment with actionable recommendations. Start here if you're not sure what the problem is, just that something's not working.

Fractional product leadership

Senior product leaders (VP/Director level) who embed 2-4 days per week. They own priorities, unblock teams, and bring 10-15+ years of experience. No recruiting cycle. No full-time commitment.

Strategy & prioritization

Ruthless roadmap prioritization to focus your overwhelmed team. We help you cut what doesn't matter and double down on what does. Get clarity on what to build, when, and why, backed by customer evidence and business impact.

Embedded product pods

Full product teams (PM + Designer + Engineers) that own specific initiatives. They ship, test, and iterate while your team focuses on core priorities. Flexible capacity that scales with your needs.

Our Process

From first call to full integration in 2 weeks.

We move fast because you don't have time to wait. Here's how we deploy fractional leaders or product pods into your organization without disrupting your existing team.

Why product leaders choose PMF Studio

You don't need more PowerPoints. You need people who can embed with your team, own outcomes, and ship results. Here's why product leaders at growth-stage companies choose us over traditional recruiting or consulting firms.

Start in weeks, not months

Deploy in 2 weeks vs 4-6 months of recruiting. Get senior capacity while you're still interviewing candidates for full-time roles.

Senior operators, not junior teams

VP/Director-level operators with 10-15+ years of experience. They've led teams, scaled products, and delivered under pressure. No junior talent who needs hand-holding.

Outcome ownership, not task execution

We own outcomes: velocity improvements, feature delivery, team productivity. Weekly updates with metrics you can report to the board.

Flexible scale, no long-term lock-in

Scale up or down as needs change. Monthly engagements, not annual contracts. Capacity that flexes with your roadmap and funding cycles.
