Founder & CEO
Joe Dauskurdas
CRO-level leadership for mid-market companies — and the system that keeps it running after the engagement ends.
The premise
The judgment that makes a sales organization work can be encoded.
Joe founded ProGrowth Advisors on that premise — not just handed off in a slide deck, but built into a system that keeps running.
He’s spent 30+ years building and leading the revenue engines behind that judgment — from a single account at Dell to a $30B+ sales organization, from a first real estate franchise to $724M in annual volume, from a fractional seat inside dozens of companies to the system that now runs ProGrowth itself.
He built ProGrowth to bring that experience — and the system it produces — to mid-market companies that need CRO-level leadership without the price tag of a full-time hire.
The track record
Where the judgment came from.
Proof, not the opener. Each of these was an operating role — carrying the number, building the team, owning the outcome.

$1B+
