Let's see if I can help.

The moments that bring

people here

Most people who reach out are somewhere in one of these.

  • Choosing a direction when you are not sure how to evolve

  • Evaluating an idea before committing real time or money

  • Deciding what to do next after a plan stalls or lacks adoption

  • Picking a technology or platform you will live with for years

  • Avoiding a mistake that gets expensive to undo

  • Requires peer level understanding

Why David

I grew up working in my family's retail store in the Bay Area. That's where business started making sense to me, well before I ever touched a computer. Then I got into computers, right at the start of the desktop revolution.

I've worked through enterprise software and data warehousing, built out partner networks, owned and ran a digital agency, and spent years learning what actually moves a business forward versus what just sounds good in a meeting.

These days I mentor.

Not because I ran out of things to build, but because I realized this is where I'm most useful, and I love seeing people succeed.

What this conversation actually is

You tell me what you're working on, where you're stuck, or what decision you're trying to make. I listen, ask a few questions, and we figure out together whether there's a real next step.

If there is, we'll know what it looks like. If there isn't, that's a fine outcome too.

Who this is for

  • Entrepreneurs and small business owners

  • SaaS, AI technologies & digital agencies

  • Startup founders

  • Coaches and consultants

  • Digital creators

  • Board of directors mentoring

  • Anyone facing a business decision that matters

What this costs you

Ten minutes on Zoom. No fee. No pitch. Nothing to sign.

This conversation exists so we can both find out if there's a reason to keep talking, before either of us commits to anything more.

No pressure

If it's not a fit, we'll both know quickly, and I'll tell you plainly. That's a good outcome too. You'll leave with a clearer picture of what you're dealing with either way.

Is this a sales call?

No. It's a conversation. I'm not pitching a package on this call, and there's nothing to buy. I am the cross road for a lot of opportunities.

What happens after the ten minutes?

If there's a real next step, we'll talk about what that looks like. If there isn't, I'll say so, and you'll still leave with a clearer view of your situation.

What should I bring to the call?

Just what you're working on and what you want to work through.

You don't need a deck or a formal pitch; I am good at conceptual thinking.

I will tell you straight up if I can help or if I can't.

How is this different from a coach?

A coach helps you run the business. A mentor helps you find the right path.

I'm sharing what I've learned in Enterprise Technology and Digital Marketing Systems.

I am not running a program.

Are you an Investor

I can participate in many ways, introductions, investment, incubator, and board member.

Still thinking it over?

One ten-minute conversation can save you weeks of second-guessing.

MayneStreet. Real experience. Real perspective.
