The principal

Senior GTM judgment, without the agency layer.

Tilak GTM is the independent, principal-led practice of Tilak Shrivastava.

Tilak Shrivastava

Tilak brings 17+ years across B2B SaaS and technology GTM, including operator experience at Zoho and Avalara. His work sits at the point where a growth mandate needs to become a coherent commercial system.

He works directly with founders, CEOs and GM-level leaders on market and ICP choices, positioning, narrative, demand architecture, sales enablement, CRM/MarTech operating design, launch priorities and measurement.

Operator experience

Career experience inside B2B technology businesses, including Zoho, Avalara and ITyX. These are employment references, not client endorsements.

Consulting engagements

Independent principal-led work. Client identities and results are shared only when there is evidence and explicit permission.

How the practice works

Tilak owns senior diagnosis, strategic choices, system design and team direction. Repetitive production and administrative execution remain with the client team or separately engaged specialists. AI is used where it improves leverage and learning—not as the reason to hire the practice.
