About Dawn Marie Bornheimer

You built something that matters. But if your revenue depends entirely on you showing up, the mission you\'ve worked so hard to build is only one step away from standing still. The question is whether the revenue behind it is built to carry it as far as it deserves to go.I\'m Dawn Marie Bornheimer, a Fractional Sales Leader and revenue infrastructure strategist for mission-driven founders who are ready to scale with their mission intact and their relationships protected.Over 20+ years, I\'ve worked at the intersection of education, healthcare, and purpose-driven business, and I\'ve seen the same pattern repeatedly: the organizations doing the most important work are often the least equipped with the systems to sustain and expand it. Not because they lack vision. Because they\'ve never had a senior sales leader in their corner helping them build for scale.That\'s the work I do.My clients are EdTech startups, nonprofits, and women-led businesses generating revenue but without the systems to make it repeatable, predictable, or powerful enough to match the size of their mission. They don\'t need a higher volume of leads. They need marketing and sales finally speak the same language, so the right people find them, trust them, and say yes. And they need a strategic partner who can build a revenue engine that runs independently, grows consistently, and funds the impact they were put here to create. Because when the revenue model gets stronger, the mission gets louder.As a fractional partner, I embed with your team to build the infrastructure that makes that possible — documented sales processes your team can run without you, pricing architecture that reflects your true value, pipeline systems grounded in reality, and a scalable revenue model aligned with where your mission is headed next.This is not SDR work. This is senior sales leadership, embedded in your organization on a fractional basis, for founders who are ready to operate at the level their impact deserves.If you\'re a mission-driven founder asking \"what would break if I stepped away?\" that\'s exactly where we start.
