You’ve Built Kickass Fraud Prevention Technology, But Customers are Not Lining Up?

At first, things went well. You built a technology that you’re certain will change the industry. You managed to convince great investors to back your vision and gain the trust of A-list talent to help you build it. You are even getting interest from some big logos. But it feels like all your conversations have been bogged down for months.

There’s nothing more frustrating than knowing you can deliver huge value for your customers and them not seeing it. Actually, there is something more frustrating - not having the clarity on how to fix it. With some clients, you’re stuck in an endless POC loop. With others, you can’t seem to agree on the price. You might even have a contract signed, but the customer keeps pushing away their integration (and your revenue) in favor of other priorities.

You tried saying “yes” to whatever is thrown at you, but you’re concerned that the business is stuck. You watch as your runway keeps getting shorter while the pipeline doesn’t show any movement. You tried reaching out to your investors and other entrepreneurs, but all you got is generic advice that doesn’t apply to you. You have the time and the resources to make the necessary changes, but you are worried you’ll pick the wrong course of action.

Imagine Not Being Able to Onboard Customers Fast Enough

Imagine this - Imagine leads converting into clients in record time. Convincing them you will deliver value is no longer an awkward and drawn-out phase. And because the value is clear, you are finally able to command a premium price for it. Suddenly, getting prospects to internally align on budget and resources takes just a few weeks. Your ARR soars in pace with your budget forecast and now you can’t wait for your next board meeting. Imagine feeling confident in the prospect of raising your next funding round and realizing your vision.

Here’s How it Works

You will get unlimited 24/7 access to me via phone, email, and Slack for a period of 6 months.
I return all messages no later than the next business day, although in practice, response time is much quicker (particularly between 9am to 5pm CET, but also nights and weekends).

Meetings are scheduled in advance as needed and take place over your preferred video conference tool (e.g., Zoom, Google Meets, Slack, etc.) or over the phone.

Possible areas of involvement:

  1. Assess and help define the business’ Product Strategy (e.g., Ideal Customer Profile, Product-Market Fit, positioning, etc.).

  2. Recurring meetings to discuss the GTM Strategy (e.g., sales pitch, pricing model, trial strategy, etc.) and perfect it based on incoming market feedback.

  3. Help leadership develop product/tech roadmaps that align with the business strategy while keeping waste to a minimum.

  4. Leadership development in areas related to organizational scaling (e.g., hiring, decision-making culture, organizational setup, management development, etc.).

  5. Situational responsiveness to needs that arise that you deem require my assistance, which are not covered elsewhere.

While we work together, I always try to create additional value by making high-impact intros within my network of potential clients, investors, and talent.

Still Have Questions?

  • We will meet for 30 minutes to assess the mutual fit for working together. This will not be a hard-sales call; the idea is to build confidence on both sides that an engagement will be impactful.

  • After the call, you’ll receive a full contract for the service to review and sign. We will also sign your standard NDA so we can discuss any details without issues. Lastly, you will receive payment instructions via email.

  • Once you submit your payment, you’ll receive a link to schedule a one-hour kick-off call. In the kick-off call, we’ll review your business strategy and explore the market feedback and signals you’ve been collecting. This will set up our conversation going forward and likely expose a few areas of potential focus.

  • My recommendations are designed to deliver results as quickly as possible with the least amount of effort. I am focused on discovering easy changes that you can deliver on your own. These can be things like specific tactics to crack a specific lead or changes to your POC process that will enable you to move faster from now on. When tackling bigger strategic themes, it’s likely that change will happen incrementally over time. My experience shows that within three months, you should notice a positive trend in your pipeline.

Who Are You, Anyway?

Hi! I’m Chen Zamir and in the last 15 years I worked in the Fintech space,
helping companies to grow securely while mitigating fraud. Nine of these years, I spent as a CTO & Co-Founder of a fraud prevention startup, Fraugster.

I specialize in fraud strategy for Digital Banking, Payment Processing and Digital Wallets, and I have helped brands like Shift4, Nuvei, Unzer, and others with their strategy, product, and operations.

I’m a firm believer that there is no such thing as stopping 100% of fraud. The only way to achieve 0% fraud, is to shut down all activity in your business. Instead, I see fraud as a domain that needs to be managed in accordance to the specific goals, strategy and available resources of each individual business. There are no copy-pastes, there are no one-size-fits-all solutions.

I believe that only by accepting that each business is unique, we’ll be able to offer truly optimized experiences. 

Don't let uncertainty and market complexity slow down your fraud prevention startup. It's time to gain the clarity and strategic direction you need to drive innovation and growth. With personalized advice from an industry insider, you can confidently refine your product-market fit, optimize your go-to-market strategy, and stay ahead of industry trends.
Don't waste valuable runway on trial and error – invest in expert guidance that can help propel your business forward. Schedule a call to assess fit now:
