Fractional COO · Builder · Post-PMF founders
You've hit product-market fit. Revenue is real. Now your operations are breaking under growth. I help founders doing $500K–$10M build the operational infrastructure to scale—without losing speed, culture, or sleep.
A clear operational roadmap—hiring sequencing, systems design, process standardization—that works at your size now and holds up through the next funding round.
Your first real financial plan. Forecasting, unit economics, OKRs tied to the numbers—built from scratch and tied to what investors will scrutinize.
Hiring frameworks, org design, and the leadership rhythms that let your team make decisions together—without you in every room.
Post-PMF founders doing $500K–$10M, with 10–75 people, where growth is real but operations haven't caught up. See the full picture →
I've worked alongside Yvonne in two very different contexts — in corporate development, and then building our venture platform from the ground up. In both, she took complete ownership of the internal complexity, which freed me to focus entirely on what I do best: the vision and the external relationships that drive the business forward.
Venture platform, 20+ portfolio companies
Yvonne took full ownership of everything that was pulling me away from the product — the board, investors, financials, hiring, corporate infrastructure. For the first time, I could focus entirely on building. The result spoke for itself: we grew and scaled faster than we ever had before.
Scaling B2B SaaS company
In the many companies I've coached and advised, I've rarely seen someone as effective — or as genuinely loved by the people around them — as Yvonne. She brings a rare combination of operational precision and human intelligence that makes her exceptional in any room she walks into.
Professor, Stanford University
I'm Yvonne Lau — builder first, operator always. Twenty years growing businesses, managing P&Ls, co-founding a venture platform, and now embedding with post-PMF founders as a fractional COO at the moment when growth starts breaking things.
