Modina Consulting Group
You built something regulated industries need . Selling it to them is a different skill.
Modina works with technical founders who are past product market fit and still running their own sales cycle helping them read procurement, security, risk and compliance the way a buyer inside the institution would. Built on 20+ years running vendor risk and mgt at BNY, PWC, MUFG and Deutsche Bank.
Youre pitching a product. They are evaluating risks.
Founders selling into banks, insurers healthcare systems, and government pitch features and speed. The people who actually say yes: procurement, GRC, information security, legal, are scored on what could go wrong if they're wrong about you. Nobody taught you their language, because you were never supposed to need it this early.
