FreeHow to Grow a Sales Pipeline from Scratch with Patrick Ward
As a marketing VP and startup founder, Patrick Ward understands how difficult it can be to build a sales pipeline from scratch.
Revenue is the lifeblood of any business. However, Patrick says early-stage startup teams often spend their time trying to do everything at once, which ultimately leads to subpar results and burnout.
Patrick is the VP of marketing at Rootstrap, a software development consultancy that uses outcome-driven development to help companies scale people, processes, and products. The company has played a key role in propelling brands like MasterClass to double their revenue.
He’s also the founder of NanoGlobals, an expert-led platform that helps mid-size tech companies tap into global markets through remote hiring, offshoring, and international market expansion.
In his experience working with both companies, Patrick says he has learned that one of the major barriers standing in the way of startup growth is impatience.
“Patience is a crucial value for every startup founder,” Patrick says. “You have to be able to patiently work through all obstacles, even with internal and external doubts, to give your startup the chance to grow. This value of patience informed me deeply with respect to building a sustainable sales qualified pipeline.”
At a webinar for Founders Network members on March 28, Patrick will share his proven sales process, built on the philosophy of addition by subtraction, that can be easily implemented to create predictable and sustainable growth. Patrick’s webinar will delve into channel mix, go-to-market motion, and the importance of experimentation when growing a sales pipeline.
In his webinar, Patrick will also cover:
- How to identify channels for short-term immediate pipeline creation and long-term pipeline expansion
- How to build the right type of go-to-market motion for your business
- How to use experimentation and budget reallocation to create a predictable and scalable pipeline

Testimonials
If you don't have a cohort group in something like Founders Network that you can develop long-term relationships with and discuss the same topics that come up with people that you already know, you're probably missing out on something very important.
David Plonsky
The number one advantage is the law of compound interest. The longer you stay in a very high-quality network the strong and more authentic relationships you build.
Chaitanya Vaidya
We know each other's business and we know each other's struggles. Having a personal relationship with other founders that is completely confidential and completely authentic gives you a lot of great advice.
Doug Lessing
FN manages my network for me by connecting me with other founders in my specific industry sector. I've been able to explore business development opportunities, partnerships, etc.
Becky Splitt
We just saw the first Mexican unicorn come to life this same week which is a fantastic idea. Being part of the Founders Network makes a lot of sense. We see that the Mexico City chapter is growing substantially.
Max Linares
There's a lot of great stuff going on even now in San Francisco. I've found Founders Network has been a great resource for me and for all of the founders I know during these tough times.
Jarie Bolander
It allowed me to meet people who had done this before that had the experience. I was able to explain an issue very briefly and they were able to give me a very detailed response on how they addressed it.
Terence Finn
I've used the platform to discover advice, connections, resources, discounts, on important services, connections to investors, and practice on how to pitch. The kind of conversations you can't get anywhere else on youtube or google searches.
Alexandra Greenhill
I see Founders Network as one of those necessary resources in the Chicagoland area.
