At Big Wheel

Eric leads commercial transformation engagements at BWP, bringing CEO-level accountability and enterprise GTM depth to growth-stage companies needing structural repair before they can scale.

His approach: clean the system first — fix ICP definition, territory design, pipeline governance, and services alignment — then apply growth levers. He combines the P&L credibility of a global enterprise leader with the scrappiness of a startup turnaround CEO.

Operator Perspective

“You can't scale a broken revenue system — you can only make the problems more expensive.”
