“The sessions that moved the needle were founder-focused, not just business-focused. Him being the brand became this beautiful thing.”

— Margaret Kocherga, PhD, Advisory5 Advisor

The Challenge

Quit Kit's founder was overwhelmed:

  • Multiple outside advisors and formal mentors giving conflicting advice
  • 20+ doubts per session from too many voices
  • Complex decisions: FDA, patents, scaling
  • No consistent team tracking progress

What We Delivered

  • Noise Reduction: Filtered advice, grounded decisions
  • Founder Development: 50%+ of sessions on founder growth, not just tactics
  • Technical Expertise: Patent strategy, FDA compliance, supply chain
  • Core Team: Margaret Kocherga, PhD & George Keller, PhD (7 months), Emily Bridge (joined Sept)

The Advisory5 Model

Team of 3-4 dedicated advisors • Monthly structured sessions • Founder-first focus • Technical expertise on demand
