About

I’m Jonathan Yarnold, an executive marketing, creative, and growth leader with 20+ years of experience building growth engines across SaaS, AI, real estate technology, consumer brands, and emerging tech. I’ve led enterprise and government go-to-market efforts, translated innovation into measurable customer acquisition and adoption, and built scalable frameworks across sales, partnerships, and marketing. As a former CEO of a generative-AI SaaS company serving clients including the U.S. Department of Defense, I’m comfortable operating at the intersection of strategy, execution, and complex stakeholder environments.

I’m known for repositioning platforms to better match evolving market demand, aligning product innovation with GTM execution, and using clear dashboards and KPIs to drive activation and retention outcomes. I’ve also built and led high-performing teams that helped support $11B+ in transactions, including record-setting performance during major market shifts in real estate. I enjoy coaching leadership on pricing strategy, buyer personas, sales enablement, and AI-driven customer engagement—always with an eye toward sustainable growth and lasting brand impact.
