We help leadership teams cut through ambiguity, align around priorities, and build momentum.

How I Work

Whether you need a sounding board, a project partner, or a full diagnostic, I bring a bias for action and operate within three foundational values.

Strategic focus

Define the few priorities that will move the business forward and say no to the rest.

Team alignment

Turn leadership debate into shared direction so execution happens faster.

Operational leverage

Find the bottlenecks, fix the handoffs, and free up capacity for growth.

Cliff Simon

FoundeR

I've spent nearly two decades building revenue engines, starting in enterprise before shifting to startup pace. Before Polaris, I was CRO at Carabiner Group, where I helped scale the team from 3 to 48 people in 18 months, through its acquisition by SBI Growth in 2024.

I founded Polaris to be the operator in the room. It's an AI-first RevOps consultancy that helps fast-growth companies build revenue engines that scale without chaos, and turns AI into an advantage instead of expensive noise.

LodeStar is where I bring the rest of what I've learned into the open. A podcast, a newsletter, a blog, and a running calendar of events, all built around one idea: the best GTM insight comes from people who've actually done the job, not another framework or a hot take. This is that signal.

Outside of Polaris and LodeStar, I work with a small number of clients directly when the problem calls for something more personal than either offers alone. Enter your information below if that is you.

Meet the companies I’ve helped along the way.
