About Chris Grimes

For over 15 years, I have been passionate about taking the vision for a new product or innovation and building the systems, processes, and teams that bring it to life. As a Business Owner at Scale-Well, I help clients develop and reinforce their road to success using a data-driven approach. I leverage my PMP certification and project management skills to ensure quality, efficiency, and scalability of solutions. I have a proven track record of identifying market opportunities and developing strategic relationships that create recurring revenue and growth. In my previous roles, I opened new markets that grew sales from $6M to $73M in a single segment in six years, secured a $120M contract for a federal recompete project, and established the processes and systems to launch and grow a new venture into a global company with $250M in revenue. I also have extensive experience in product development, marketing and branding, and client relations, and I use data analytics to continually improve processes and performance. I’m an empathic and agile leader who enjoys motivating, coaching, and empowering my team and partners. I believe that discomfort often leads to innovation, and I don’t shy away from challenging the status quo. When I’m not building businesses, I spend my time outdoors, hiking, and creating new memories.
