From people we’ve worked with

“Somewhat of a legend in the ecosystem. We were lucky enough to have Matthew come down and address our accelerator companies on all things SEO, Ads & Analytics — which we saw have immediate growth effects in the cohort.”
Alexander Potter Director, Cog Labs accelerator
“Matthew was an invaluable part of the Jobbio team during the 8 months he spent consulting with us. He helped us tackle key issues around acquisition, SEO, data, and analytics, and established processes that contributed directly to our growth and improved efficiency.”
Nina Ricafort Product Manager · ex-Jobbio
“I needed someone who’d done this before to guide me through the process and make sure I didn’t miss anything. Easy to work with, support helped me avoid basic mistakes and take all the right steps. Saved me a ton of time.”
Nuno Pereira Senior Demand Gen, Kinsta · ex-Autotrip

How we work

Engagements run 4–12 weeks of focused work, with optional retainer for ongoing operating support. Founder-led directly by Matt or a senior partner, never offshored, occasionally with a curated bench of 49+ specialists across design, content, data engineering, paid media, and product.

Day rates: $2,000 for startups, $2,500 for blockchains and funds, $3,000 for corporates. Discounts for scopes of 10+ days. Time/retainer or task/deliverable structures both work. Open to performance alignment, advisory equity, or partial cash + equity for early-stage clients — several of those have become Vang Capital portfolio companies.
