MV Consulting

Hi, I’m Mihaela.

I help founders turn “we should probably do more sales” into an actual sales engine.

From defining your ICP and finding the right people, to building outbound that gets replies and turning conversations into qualified pipeline - I help make sales less of a guessing game and more of a repeatable process.

I’m here to build what works, not just hit a quota.

How I help founders move.

Clear offers for early-stage teams that need pipeline, positioning, and a product surface ready to sell.

ICP definition, playbooks, outbound sequencing, and sales process design so your team generates pipeline without guessing.

  • Outbound systems built from zero
  • Playbooks, messaging, and enablement
  • Typically 4–6 qualified opportunities/month per client

Lightweight product and web builds for early validation - enough polish to talk to customers, investors, and first users.

  • Landing pages and marketing sites
  • MVP apps for demand tests
  • Fast iteration with founder-friendly tooling

Go-to-market for DeFi and marketplace products: community channels, content cadence, and launch groundwork.

  • Community build from scratch
  • Content calendars for acquisition
  • Grant, legal, and launch support

Proof in the pipeline.

Switch between consulting engagements and full-time roles - two tracks, clearly separated.

Since her talent is combined with excellent interpersonal skills, it's easy for me to strongly recommend Mihaela for any sales / account management / sales leadership role.

Beyond the numbers

I wrote and self-published a book on human relationships and personal transformation because I believe account management is fundamentally about authentic connection - at scale.
