I started Arise GTM to help B2B tech companies cut through the noise and build a go-to-market that actually works; for their team, their customers, and the stage they’re at.
Now, our mission is to bring clarity and structure to the way B2B companies go to market by connecting what they know about their customers to how they market, sell, and grow.
Paul Sullivan is the founder and Chief GTM Officer of Arise GTM, the consultancy behind the ARISE™ Go-To-Market Methodology. An award-winning framework helping B2B SaaS and fintech companies go to market faster, with more clarity and less complexity.
With a background spanning CTO and CMO roles in both enterprise and startup environments, Paul brings a rare mix of strategic, technical, and commercial leadership. He’s helped over 100 companies launch new products, streamline revenue operations, and build GTM strategies that stick.
His book, Go To Market Uncovered (Wiley, 2025), is already being used as a playbook by founders and GTM teams globally.
Paul is certified in Narrative Design, Product Marketing, and MEDDPICC, and has advised early-stage and growth-stage companies in cohorts led by Nvidia, UCL, Plexal, and more.
Whether you’re launching, scaling, or rethinking your GTM approach—Paul’s frameworks, insight, and operator-level thinking bring the firepower of an internal GTM team without the overhead.
I’ve spent the last 15+ years inside high-growth B2B companies—as a CMO, as a GTM advisor, and as someone who knows what it feels like when your strategy is half-working, your team’s out of sync, and your pipeline feels like a gamble.
I didn’t start Arise GTM to just launch another agency. I started it because too many smart teams are stuck spinning their wheels. Good product, great intentions, but no clear path to repeatable revenue.
So we built ARISE®. Our go-to-market methodology. Because every company deserves a system that actually helps them move faster, align around what matters, and get more value out of the tools and data they already have.
"Great go-to-market isn’t built on guesswork. It’s built on clarity, momentum, and a team that knows what to do next".
We help B2B tech and fintech companies:
Figure out who their best customers really are (and what they care about)
Tighten their positioning and messaging so it resonates and converts
Connect product usage and customer data back into their CRM and GTM plan
Build sales systems (we’re MEDDPICC certified) that are smart, not spammy
Set up HubSpot to actually support growth, not just report on it
All of this is tied together in one simple goal: give you a go-to-market system you trust and that your team can run with.
We’re hands-on. We’ve lived the pressure of sales targets and investor updates. We don’t come in with buzzwords and bloated decks; we come in, roll up our sleeves, and build alongside you.
We’re not here to impress your team. We’re here to support them. To build systems they actually use. To create clarity where there’s been chaos. And to make you feel like “we’ve got this.”
We’re HubSpot Platinum Partners, but we don’t just implement. We make the platform actually work for your strategy.
We combine AI and real customer data to inform smarter decisions, from segmentation to messaging to sales enablement.
We care just as much about your customer experience as we do about your CAC or MQLs.
And we build everything with speed and sustainability in mind, because no one has 12 months to get to value anymore.
Because we treat their business like our own.
Because we make complexity feel manageable.
Because we show up when it matters, and we don’t disappear after the “strategy deck.”
If you’re feeling like your GTM isn’t quite clicking… you’re not alone. We’ve helped dozens of teams go from messy to scalable, from “kind of working” to “fully working,” and from unsure to unstoppable.
If that sounds like something you need, I’d love to show you how we work.

I run GTM strategy here at AriseGTM, but our team run your playbook. Happy to chat and see if we can support.
At Arise GTM, our values aren't fluff, they’re how we show up, how we work, and why clients trust us.
They guide everything we build, from strategic GTM playbooks to hands-on HubSpot systems.
We value clarity over complexity. We work with our clients, not just for them. We move fast, stay grounded in insight, and always prioritise progress over perfection.
These aren’t just ideas, they’re lived in every engagement, every workshop, every sprint. They’re the reason clients say we feel like part of the team. And they’re why our work actually drives change—not just deliverables.
We strip away noise and focus on what really matters.
We work shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients, not at arm’s length.
If it doesn’t work in practice, it doesn’t make the playbook.
We move fast—because so do your targets.
We say what we see, even when it’s uncomfortable.
Data guides our decisions. Insight shapes our strategy.
Done and learned beats perfect and late.
Corporate social responsibility should be a key part of a business's identity in the modern world. Unfortunately, the many areas covered by the UN guidelines are impossible for every business, especially the smaller ones.
So, how does ARISE GTM work towards becoming evermore aligned to solving the world's problems?
Well, firstly, we work on solving what we can manage.
One key initiative is planting more trees in places around the world where deforestation and harsh weather climates have affected the natural balance.
We aim to plant 3,000 trees by December 2026 at 100 trees per project over the next two years.
Your business will help us achieve that goal, and you will receive a certificate that will help you reduce your carbon impact on the world.
Our website server is powered by 100% carbon-neutral energy, which means all of our clients reduce their carbon impact on the planet.
Client websites carry a certificate in the footer letting your website visitors know your carbon-neutral status.
Another way our team are reducing destructive environmental impact for the better.
