Nicholas Melillo
Founder and GTM operator, Managed Outbound
I am a 5x founder with an MBA from Wake Forest University, specializing in Leadership & Strategy, and I build software as well as market it. I founded and run Triad Search Marketing, an AI-powered growth shop for local and mid-market businesses. I founded and lead Lucidly, a customer success platform with AI revenue agents. I founded Rocklane Strategy, a GTM consultancy for post-Series A SaaS teams, and Momentence, an AI-native growth agency for software companies. I also operate Cobalt Glacier, an AI venture studio that builds and keeps AI-native B2B SaaS brands, and I am a VC in Residence with LvlUp Ventures.
That means I sit on both sides of the table: running outbound and growth for software companies, and owning the P&L when the pipeline has to convert. Every recommendation Managed Outbound makes is one I have to live with somewhere else too.
So we publish our pricing, write down what shipped every Friday, and tell you when you are wrong, including about hiring us.
