About Brett Sharenow

Not Your Typical Advisor

Brett is a unique trusted advisor — one who knows the language investors care about:

His Unusual Background
Creates a Compelling Edge

Three decades of diagnosing complex systems
translates directly into how Brett works with founders:
Not as a financial mechanic, but as a strategic architect who sees the whole machine.

01

Technical Fluency, Human Translation

As a chemist, mechanic, product manager, CFO, and CEO, Brett deeply understands products and markets. He will translate your innovation into a clear, emotional story that sophisticated investors respond to. No "technical rabbit holes" or "dumbing it down." Just precision storytelling.

02

He Knows What Investors Don't Tell You

After 36 years working with both entrepreneurs and investors/strategics/acquirers, Brett knows what investors want and need but rarely say out loud. He prepares you for the conversations that truly determine whether a deal closes.

03

He Reads the Room and Coaches You to Win It

His EMT training and medic on a volunteer ambulance corps taught him how to read and handle human beings under stress. Brett uses these skills to assess founders in real time, then coaches them to walk into investor meetings with the presence, clarity, and conviction that closes deals.

"I built the aircraft, earned my repairman's certificate, and fly the gyroplane. That's how I work with founders — involving myself in all aspects of the business."
