Strategy That Ships

I've been where you are — staring at three different strategic directions at 2am, wondering which one won't kill your runway. Marga Haus brings MBB-level rigour with the practical wisdom of someone who's built companies from the inside.

Three Ways I Work With Founders

Fractional CXO

Senior strategic leadership embedded part-time into your startup. CTO, CPO, or Chief of Staff — in the trenches, shipping alongside you.

Founder Mastermind

Curated peer advisory groups for pre-seed to Series A operators. YPO energy, hot-seat format, structured accountability.

Strategic Advisory

GTM strategy, venture de-risking, business model validation. MBB frameworks at startup speed with a bias to action.

Meet the Founder

Tanuj is a Melbourne-based consultant, founder, and multi-venture operator. His career spans management consulting (Accenture, Aurecon), AI-native software development (MVP Guru), and early-stage venture building across 4 countries.

The rare combination of consulting pedigree + AI-native builder chops + actual founder skin-in-the-game is what sets Marga Haus apart. This isn't advice from a hotel lobby. It's strategic partnership from someone who has shipped product, raised capital, and built teams.

Engagement model

How engagements work.

Four stages. Every one designed to deliver value and then, eventually, make me unnecessary.

Marga Haus — professional other services

Discovery Call

A focused 30-minute conversation. We map your real challenge, where you are, and whether we're the right fit. No pitch deck.

30 minFree, no commitment

Diagnostic Sprint

Two weeks inside your business model, team dynamics, and strategic positioning. You walk out with a clear-eyed assessment and three prioritised actions that move the needle.

2 weeksFixed scope, fixed price

Embedded Execution

I embed into your team as fractional CXO or strategic advisor. Weekly rhythm, quarterly OKRs, real accountability, hands-on delivery alongside your people.

3–6 monthsTypical engagement length

Sustainable Exit

The goal is to make myself unnecessary. Hiring frameworks, decision-making processes, delegation systems — everything your team needs to keep momentum after I step back.

What You Walk Away With

Clarity that moves.

Not a slide deck. A roadmap your team can execute, systems that keep momentum, and a business model investors can defend.

Direction

A prioritised roadmap, not a shelf-ware deck.

Cadence

Weekly rhythms, quarterly OKRs.

Proof

Unit economics you can defend.

Team

Hiring frameworks and role clarity for the next stage.

Decision-making processes, delegation systems, and the accountability structures that outlast the engagement.

“Like having a co-founder who had done it before.”

What Founders Say

“

We refer portfolio founders to Marga Haus when they need strategic clarity fast. The combination of consulting rigour and actual startup operating experience is rare. Most advisors have one or the other.

Priya Sharma

Managing Partner, Volta Ventures

“

Having Tanuj as fractional CTO was like having a co-founder who had done it before. He restructured our engineering team, shipped our v2 platform on time, and built the hiring process so we could scale without him. That last part is what impressed me most.

James Whitfield

Founder, Greenline Logistics

“

Tanuj brought the kind of clarity we desperately needed. We were drowning in options — three potential pivots, a messy cap table, and a team that was losing confidence. He cut through all of it in two weeks and gave us a roadmap we actually followed.
