# Growth Advice

> Operator-led sales recruiting for Seed and Series A B2B SaaS companies. Run by Niels Kvaavik, a 5x Head of Sales who has personally hired hundreds of AEs.

Growth Advice is a sales recruiting practice focused on the first sales hire (founding AE) and Head of Sales searches for early-stage B2B SaaS founders. Unlike traditional sales recruiters, Growth Advice goes deep on the business, fixes sales fundamentals, and then hires the right person for the stage. Engagements include in-person discovery, a stage-fit framework, and post-placement coaching.
