Why startups operators engage SAZ to improve margins.
Margin is the single best signal of business health and the foundation for valuation multiples. SAZ margin engagements work both sides of the equation — pricing and cost — to move both gross margin and EBITDA margin toward top-quartile bands.
Startups need senior operators, not pitch coaches. SAZ partners with founders on positioning, GTM, pricing, hiring, and capital — the work that decides whether you become a real company.
