The place for early-stage B2B marketers to learn, share, and grow.
A free community and weekly newsletter for in-house marketers at early-stage B2B companies. Small teams, tight budgets, founder dynamics, a number you didn't build but have to hit. You're not the only one dealing with it.
The community runs on Discord. New to it? Download the app first; setup takes about a minute.

I'm Rob Young. I spent years as a senior analyst at IDC watching companies repeat the same GTM mistakes, then more than a decade inside them, including as the first marketing leader at five venture-backed startups, typically pre-seed through Series B.
​
Along the way I've advised Microsoft, VMware, Dell, NVIDIA, Citrix, and ServiceNow, and led product marketing at IBM Security. That analyst-plus-operator view is what MHQ is built on.
