Here is what nobody tells you when your business hits $10M. The same speed that got you there is now working against you. You scaled fast. Sales kept coming. But somewhere along the way, operations quietly broke down. Now you have high demand, a great product, and a team that is working harder than ever but revenue has flatlined and nobody can figure out why. That is exactly where we come in. I am Nikhil, Founder and CEO of NP Ventures. We are a remote CTO agency that works exclusively with $5M to $50M businesses that are stuck at a revenue ceiling they cannot explain. We start by diagnosing what is actually broken, whether that is your tech stack, your ops infrastructure, your Salesforce setup, or the gaps between your systems that are quietly bleeding time and money. Then we fix it. No bloated timelines, no long-term contracts, no upsells. Our clients stay with us because they want to, not because they signed a contract. What we do: IT cleanup and operations restructuring Custom app and web development Salesforce implementation and optimization Systems integration and automation Ongoing fractional CTO support If your business has high demand but growth has stalled, I would love to hear what is going on. Send me a message and let's figure it out together.
