Healthcare & Life Sciences (HLS) · Senior Commercial Growth Advisory

When activity isn't converting into growth with HLS customers.

Biomavens helps HLS-facing companies — from health tech and health IT to services, consulting, agency, and commercialization firms — turn sales, marketing, delivery, and client activity into a clearer commercial engine.

Turning commercial activity into clearer growth. Helping capability become traction with HLS customers — and the operating discipline to make it stick.

How we work

Clarify what matters. Reconnect commercial motion. Build repeatable growth.

A candid read on what's really going on. The decisions that move everything else, named out loud. Then the operating discipline to keep making them.

What we do

A small set of capabilities, applied to the work that actually moves HLS revenue.

From founder-led growth to a scalable commercial engine.

01

Commercial Reset

When to call. Growth has plateaued, or the commercial functions have drifted apart.

What's different afterward

A clear ideal healthcare buyer, one shared story, a sequenced plan, and an operating rhythm leadership actually runs.

02

Capability-to-Market Strategy

When to call. The platform, service, data, or AI capability is real — but the market path to scale isn't.

What's different afterward

Positioning, a packaged offer, and a sales motion shaped around how healthcare buyers actually decide.

03

Strategic Account Growth

When to call. Key accounts are stuck at delivery and the expansion conversation isn't opening.

What's different afterward

Accounts reframed around executive priorities — with a credible path from vendor to advisor.

04

Consultant-Led Growth

When to call. The services firm delivers strong client work, but BD, consultants, account leaders, and delivery teams aren't aligned around expansion and commercial follow-through.

What's different afterward

A growth model where consultant signals become pipeline — with handoff discipline, account planning, and a playbook the services team can run.

05

Executive Advisory

When to call. A founder or commercial leader needs an outside read on decisions already in motion.

What's different afterward

A second perspective, sharper priorities, and a working cadence between us.

06

Strategic Introductions & Partnerships

When to call. The constraint isn't capability. It's access to the right rooms inside healthcare.

What's different afterward

A targeted map of partners and buyers, and warm introductions where they matter.

Selected Impact

Where the work has moved the number.

Representative outcomes across services firms, healthcare AI vendors, enterprise platforms, and other companies whose growth depends on winning HLS customers.

From Plateau to 3x Growth

Took a healthcare communications firm from a stalled revenue line to 3x multi-year growth — diversifying a concentrated client base into a multi-million-dollar enterprise book and building the commercial engine underneath it.

Commercial Build from Scratch

Stood up the commercial organization for an early-stage healthcare AI company — positioning, sales motion, first enterprise customers, and the operating model that carried it from Series A into commercial scale.

Seven-Figure Revenue Activation

Scaled an enterprise consulting business to seven-figure recurring revenue through tighter customer focus, repositioning, sales infrastructure, and operating discipline.

Pre-Launch Pressure Test

Pressure-tested commercial assumptions, payer realities, and adoption barriers for emerging life sciences organizations — reshaping go-to-market posture before capital was committed.

Who we work with

The organizations we're built for.

HLS-facing companies — health tech, health IT, AI and data vendors, platforms, services firms, agencies, consultancies, and commercialization partners — at the point where strong capability has to turn into repeatable growth with HLS buyers.

Health tech, health IT & enterprise platforms
AI, data, workflow, CRM, and martech platforms selling into HLS buyers and trying to be valued for outcomes, not features.
Services, agencies & consultancies
Medcomms, advertising, advisory, and tech-enabled services firms scaling beyond founder-led and relationship-led growth.
Healthcare AI & digital health vendors
Translating model and product capability into enterprise adoption inside complex healthcare & life sciences buyers.
Market access, engagement & commercialization vendors
Companies whose work touches access, evidence, and field execution — and needs to land higher in the HLS buyer.
Data, analytics & enablement platforms
Health IT and commercialization-support firms turning capability into a repeatable motion with HLS customers.
Founder-led and PE-backed HLS-facing businesses
Inflection points where capability and revenue are real, and the next phase of growth has to be built deliberately.
Why Biomavens

Built where strategy and operating reality meet.

Most advisors live in strategy or in execution. Biomavens was built at the seam — from inside the HLS buyers that decide what gets funded and adopted, and alongside the platforms, services firms, agencies, and vendors trying to land there.

Built where HLS buyers actually decide
Operating depth across payer, provider, pharma, and digital health — built inside the organizations our clients are trying to sell into, so we know what makes the buying conversation move.
Strategy and execution, not one or the other
Commercial work rarely fails on the strategy alone. It fails where people, process, and platforms meet daily decisions.
A repeatable method
A working approach to turning fragmented signals into clear choices — teachable across a leadership team, not locked in one head.
Decisions, not dashboards
Strategy stays connected to execution through an operating cadence — and a clear line from signal to decision to action.
How we engage

Sized to the moment — not to a fixed deliverable.

Engagements are scoped to a decision or an outcome, not a stack of slides. Most start with a short working session to frame the real problem.

Strategic Advisory
Recurring senior judgment at the leadership table.
Commercial Diagnostic
A short, structured read on where commercial reality is breaking down.
Go-to-Market & Market Readiness
Positioning, customer focus, motion, and access — scoped to the launch ahead.
Sales Activation
The story, the playbook, and the cadence that actually moves pipeline.
Decision Environments
Workflows that turn signals into decisions and decisions into action.
Embedded Commercial Support
Fractional commercial leadership through a critical growth window.
From capability to commercial motion

A capability is not a strategy. The market has to understand what it's buying.

A strong platform, service, data asset, or AI capability doesn't sell itself. It sells when buyers can see the problem it solves, the decision it supports, and the outcome it changes.

01

Turn capability into a motion the field can run.

Real platforms, services, and AI assets that aren't yet a clear offer, a buyer story, or a repeatable sales motion. We translate what you have into something the market can actually buy.

02

Move the conversation from features to value.

Technology and services firms often get stuck talking implementation when the buyer wants to talk outcomes. We help reframe the account conversation around the decisions, workflows, and results that actually move the relationship.

The translation
PlatformBuyer DecisionWorkflow ImpactAccount GrowthMeasurable Value

Firms lose strategic ground the moment the conversation becomes about features and delivery instead of decisions and outcomes. Most of what we do lives in that gap.

Built inside healthcare commercialization

A senior operator, not a career consultant.

Biomavens is led by Mike Strassberg — more than three decades inside healthcare & life sciences, working at the intersection of HLS buyers and the companies that sell into them: platforms, services firms, AI and data companies, agencies, and consultancies.

The work has spanned commercial builds, growth resets, account expansion, and executive advisory through repositioning and transformation. Initial conversations are led personally.
