About U2 Consulting · Fractional Revenue Leadership

We build your revenue engine from the top down,
then help you run it.

U2 Consulting gives startups and growing B2B companies executive-level revenue leadership without the full-time hire. We take the Fractional CRO seat, architect the sales department (methodology, ICP and collateral), and then stand up the BDR, AE and Channel motions that turn that foundation into pipeline and closed revenue.

Eight Months of Enterprise Momentum

How U2 Consulting helped Axoniq turn outbound motion into Fortune 500 pipeline, signed revenue, and new strategic alliances.

The Challenge

Breaking Into Net New Fortune 500 Accounts

Axoniq builds explainable, event driven infrastructure trusted by some of the world's most regulated enterprises. Breaking into net new Fortune 500 accounts required warmer paths in, faster qualification, and a partner network that could open doors outbound alone could not reach.

What U2 Did

A Coordinated GTM Team Embedded Inside Axoniq

U2 Consulting embedded a dedicated BDR, a full cycle Account Executive, and a Channel Alliance function directly inside Axoniq's growth motion.

The Outcome

Enterprise Agreements and New Alliances

Multiyear enterprise agreements, an overachieved Q3, and new strategic cloud alliances. The full case study shows how each function contributed and why the motion worked.
