ClockSpeed does one thing.
We assess how product, marketing and sales are performing together in PE-backed businesses and identify where execution is limiting returns.
Where the assessment finds a problem, we define what needs to change. Where change requires direct leadership, we embed and deliver it.
Not reports. Not recommendations. A clear view of where the engine is, where it needs to be, and what changes first.
ClockSpeed Consulting was founded by Jennifer Peart, drawing on more than 20 years of experience across Silicon Valley multinationals, global software publishers and high-growth technology businesses. Jennifer's experience spans portfolio companies backed by Hg Capital, TA Associates, ECI Partners and Apollo Global Management, including The Access Group and IRIS Software Group, with board-level interim CCO and CMO roles at Nominet and Auction Technology Group, and commercial mandates including Lucanet's Office of the CFO proposition across DACH, UKI and US, and ICIS's global messaging transformation.
Beyond delivery, she brings board governance experience: nine years as a Trustee of WPF Therapy, including three as Chair of its Training, Research and Ethics Committee. Warwick Business School MBA.
Across those environments, from early-stage scale-ups to mature global organisations, one pattern became clear: commercial performance cannot be separated from lifecycle stage.
ClockSpeed was built around that principle.
The ClockSpeed Framework formalises this thinking into a structured commercial intervention model. It interprets product, marketing and sales performance in the context of lifecycle stage, identifying where execution is appropriate for the organisation’s phase of growth, and where it is misaligned.
ClockSpeed works with investors, founders and commercial leaders who need performance interpreted in context, and intervention applied where growth is being constrained.
Our Approach
“The same metrics tell very different stories at different stages of growth.
A founder-led sales model that drives early traction can constrain scale.
Aggressive demand generation that works in expansion can destroy efficiency in maturity.
Lifecycle determines what good looks like — and what must change”.
You've read how we think. The obvious next question is where your own commercial engine stands, the free assessment gives you a directional read in two minutes.
