SaaS Product Consulting
SaaS product consulting gives a B2B software company senior product judgment on a defined problem: positioning, roadmap, retention or the operating model, delivered as targeted intervention rather than a permanent seat. The work is measured on activation, retention and ARR. A standard engagement is $8,000 a month for 20 to 25 hours, with a 3 month minimum in 2026.
This engagement fits a funded B2B SaaS company between $2M and $15M ARR with a specific product problem it can name. If three of the four lines below describe your quarter, the fit is strong.
Stage
Series A or B, with a product team that needs judgment rather than headcount.
Symptom
You can name the problem, whether it is retention, positioning or a roadmap nobody believes.
Revenue
$2M to $15M ARR, where the problem is costing measurable revenue this quarter.
Decision
You are weighing an ongoing seat against outsourcing the function entirely.
Not for you if you are pre product-market fit, want a permanent product executive from day one, or need delivery capacity rather than product judgment.
Every figure below is from shipped, measured work in engagements led by Sivan Kadosh as Fractional CPO. None of it is a projection.
Sivan is an excellent product manager, product leader and team member. He cares passionately about delighting customers and is highly capable at all levels from strategic direction to writing detailed documents. I would recommend him 10/10 to any company.

Consulting works when you already know which question you need answered. If you do not, the engagement turns into a survey and you pay for a quarter of discovery. I would rather spend the first call narrowing the question than the first month searching for it.
If you need the seat held rather than a targeted intervention, read what a fractional CPO is or go straight to part-time product leadership.
You get one senior product executive on your named problem for 20 to 25 hours a month, accountable for a measurable change rather than a recommendation. Scope is agreed before we start, so you know what you are buying and when it ends.

Sivan is an excellent product manager and I wholeheartedly recommend him. He has created value in a variety of ways, from top-down vision, mission and goal work alongside the senior leadership team, to taking on complex business analysis and wireframing tasks.
Sivan played two major roles at the same time as a CEO and VP Product at Naxex. As part of his role as VP Product, he identified creative ideas, developed sharp strategies and built the road map while focusing on customer experience and business needs. Any company would be lucky to have Sivan.
