Portrait of Sara Hasselman

Founder & Managing Partner

Sara Hasselman

A growth and operations executive who has built marketing, CRM and revenue systems from the inside, most recently as Chief Growth & Operations Officer at a health technology company.

“Most businesses don't have a marketing problem; they have a systems problem. My favorite moment is when the system we built starts showing up in the revenue numbers.”

I started Wise Fox in 2015 because I kept seeing the same thing: good companies with real traction, with leaders stretched too thin to own growth from end to end. I like being the person who does.
