About

Off Script exists because companies shouldn’t have to learn every commercial lesson the hard way.

Illustrated portrait of Jarrod, founder of Off Script Ventures
The story

Jarrod has spent more than 12 years growing technology services businesses alongside founders and CEOs.

He has been the first sales hire inside three early-stage Salesforce partners and has worked across the commercial problems that appear as those businesses grow: positioning, offers, sales, partnerships, delivery models, account growth, new practices, new revenue streams and complex deals.

Over time, he realised that working across so many parts of the commercial system had given him a useful perspective.

He could quickly spot where growth was getting stuck, where responsibilities or decisions were unclear, where technical capability wasn’t translating into commercial value, and where an overlooked capability could become a stronger offer or new revenue stream.

Off Script was created to use that experience across a wider range of founders and technology businesses.

Today, Jarrod works alongside founders and leaders to solve commercial problems, build what is missing, put it to work in the business and eventually make himself less necessary.

How he works

An operator, not an outside adviser.

Jarrod approaches the work as an operator who can help build and test the commercial system, not as an external consultant producing recommendations from the sidelines.

He doesn’t need to be the smartest technical person in the room. His job is to work with the people who know the technology and find what customers will understand, value and buy.

“Jarrod has a real gift for understanding what a customer actually needs, and he can translate technical detail into plain business language that anyone can follow and relate to.”
Kolappan PillaiHead of Salesforce AI & Data Practice, Cloudwerx
“Beyond his strong track record in sales, he possesses a rare strategic instinct for identifying untapped market opportunities and establishing high-growth practices from the ground up.”
