THE ENGAGEMENT
THE FOUNDER HANDOFF BLUEPRINT™
Get your business running without you in 12 weeks
A 12-week advisory program for 7-Figure SaaS, Fintech, and ServiceBased founders who want the business to run without them in every decision.
If you are a SaaS, Fintech or Service Based founder and almost every important decision still comes to you, this is for you. You know the signs. Projects move when you push them. Your team is capable, but they still wait for your nod before taking the shot. You try to step away for a few days and your phone lights up like the business has separation anxiety.
That gets old fast.
In 12 weeks, you will be able to step away from your business for two weeks and come back to momentum, not a mess, because your leadership team is making the decisions that used to come to you.
WHO THIS IS FOR
- You run a SaaS, Fintech or Service Based business, roughly $2M to $20M ARR, with a real team and real revenue.
- You have become the bottleneck. Too many decisions still run through you.
- You already have a leadership team, even if they are not owning enough yet.
- You want structure and accountability, not corporate nonsense or a giant operating system.
- You are decisive, coachable, and happy to let your team carry real weight.
THIS IS NOT FOR YOU
If you want me to come in and run your company, your leadership team is imaginary, your revenue is still early-stage, or you are looking for corporate theatre with laminated values and 47 new dashboards.

How it works
Clear Decisions (Weeks 1 to 4)
- We map every decision still sitting on your desk, give each one a clear owner, and set simple rules so people can act without checking with you first. By the end of the first two weeks you have your Founder Dependence baseline, a clear list of the decisions that need to move off your plate, and a 30-day plan for which leaders will own them.
Weekly Ownership (Weeks 5 to 8)
- We fix your leadership meeting so it ends with real decisions, clear owners, and deadlines, instead of status updates. Each leader takes a number and an outcome they own, and the week starts running without you in the middle of it.
Proven Independence (Weeks 9 to 12)
- Your team runs real projects and live decisions while you step back and I coach them through the tricky parts. Then you run the two-week test, and we lock everything into a simple playbook so it keeps working after we are done.
You guide, your team does the work. I am not stepping in to run your company or sitting in your team meetings. I work with you, one on one, to find the real bottleneck, build the structure, and coach your team while they put it in place.
WHAT YOU GET
- One focused 1:1 Advisory call with me each week, on the actual bottleneck in your company.
- Async Access to me for any questions between calls.
- The Founder Dependence Diagnostic in Week 1 and Week 12, so you can see in plain numbers how much less the business depends on you.
- The decision rules and ownership map, so every major decision has a home.
- The leadership meeting rhythm, so the week ends with decisions and movement.
- The Decision Mapper GPT, so you can turn weeks of decision-mapping into a single afternoon.
- You keep the whole system afterwards.
Your investment
$15,000 (USD) paid in full and you save $1,500.
Or 3 monthly payments of $5,500.
My guarantee
After the first two weeks, if you don’t have your Founder Dependence baseline, a clear list of the decisions that need to move off your desk, and a 30-day plan for which leaders will own them, I’ll buy it back from you. No questions asked. You get back every dollar you have paid, and you owe nothing more.
A reason to move now
I take 3 founders a month. Applications close on the last Friday of the month, and the three founders start the first week of the following month. If you miss it, the next intake is a month away. Apply and lock in your spot before the deadline and I’ll include The 30-Day Hold Check (worth $2,500) free: two senior calls with me after the program to make sure your team still holds the decisions once you have stepped back.
What Makes Me Different
I’m Vahab Hasiri. I scaled a fintech from $5M to $19.2M ARR as COO, I’m still an active operator today, and I wrote The Rubicon Leader about the founder-to-CEO transition. I’ve made the hires you’re about to make and fixed the bottlenecks you’re sitting in right now.
This is not theory. It is operating work.
Ready to proceed
You don’t need to send money now. I just need to know you’re a good fit.
Apply or book a quick fit call, and I’ll send you the details.
