Jenn Krentz

Executive Communication Coach for Tech Founders & Startup Leaders

Your business is fundable. The room just isn't getting it yet.

 

You've built something real. You have traction, a clear vision, and a deck that looks the part. But something isn't landing, and you can feel it in the meetings.

I help tech founders at seed through Series B close the gap between the company you've built and the way you communicate it. Not by making you sound like someone else, but by making sure the room finally hears what you've been trying to say.

For non-native English speaking founders especially: your English is not the problem. Let's talk about what actually is.

 

Most Pitch Coaching Fixes the Wrong Thing.

More slides. Better graphics. A tighter script.

None of that is the problem.

The problem is that investors aren't just evaluating your business. They're evaluating you — your clarity, your confidence, and how you hold the room when someone pushes back. If that part isn't working, the deck doesn't matter.

I've spent 20 years watching brilliant people fail to communicate how brilliant they are, and watching what changes when they finally can.

The founders who raise aren't always the ones with the best businesses. They're the ones who can make the room believe.

And if you're building in a language that isn't yours, pitching to investors who don't know your market, navigating rules nobody wrote down for you, then you're carrying extra weight that has nothing to do with how good your business is.

That's not a you problem. That's an information problem. And it's exactly what I fix.

 

Why Founders Work With Me

Most communication coaches come from business. I come from theatre and language.

I have a drama degree, 20 years of teaching experience, and TESOL training which means I understand not just what you're saying, but how your body, voice, breath, and presence either back it up or undermine it.

I also understand what it takes to communicate with precision and confidence in a language that isn't your first.

That combination is unusual in the startup world, and it's exactly what founders need when they're walking into a room where everything is on the line.

I understand the communication challenges tech founders actually face like:

  • How to explain complex technology simply

  • How to build credibility as a first-time CEO

  • How to navigate investor conversations when the stakes are everything.

And I understand that in the AI-powered build era, communication is the real bottleneck. Anyone can ship a product., but not everyone can make the room believe in it.

You'll get honest, specific feedback on what actually matters for your raise instead of generic communication theory, empty praise, or a framework that falls apart in a real investor meeting.

I've helped dozens of tech founders secure funding, close enterprise deals, nail conference talks, and build the executive presence their companies needed them to have.

From one-time deck audits to full cohort coaching to private 1:1 programs, there's a level of support that fits where you are right now.
