You Found Product/Market Fit. Now What Runs the Company?
Trajectory: Scaleup is post-accelerator programming for founders who are past the idea phase and need an operating system — not another book to read alone.
Built for Operators, Not Readers
Product companies only.
Built around the mechanics of building, pricing, and selling product. Not generic small-business advice.
Cash before revenue.
Revenue is a lagging indicator. We track cash, every quarter, every department.
People before culture.
Culture work starts after PMF, once you have the right people in the right seats. Before that, no culture saves a company without a market.
ITINDY — Important Things I'm Not Doing Yet.
Developed by T.A. McCann and built into a quarterly planning discipline by Dave Parker. Founders operate under scarcity — you can't do everything this quarter. ITINDY makes the "not now" list explicit, written down, every department, every quarter.
AI tools, updated quarterly.
A living, chapter-by-chapter directory of the AI tools founders in the program are actually using — not a guess from the outside.
The Program for What Comes After the Accelerator
Most accelerators end at product/market fit. What comes after is usually a Slack channel. Trajectory: Scaleup is the room for founders who already have a product and paying customers — and need the operating discipline to scale without breaking what's working.
One day a month. Same cohort, twelve months. Real plans, not lectures.
Who This Is For
This is you
- You have a product and paying customers
- You're trying to scale without losing control of cash, people, or focus
- You want peers solving the same problems, not theory
Not yet
- Still searching for product/market fit
- Already running a finance team and a People function — you've outgrown the cohort model
