01 — About

Aeneas carried what mattered out of a burning city and founded something greater on the far side of the voyage. He did not start over. He took what was already worth keeping and built it into something larger than what he left behind.

Every company we work with is somewhere on that route. Retiring a model that no longer earns its keep. Carrying forward the assets, relationships, and capabilities that still have real value. Building the next thing out of them — under pressure, on a clock, with a number to hit.

That journey does not need another deck. It needs someone who has made the crossing.

The firm

Aeneas Consulting was founded by Jody Stark, a revenue and partnerships executive with more than twenty years spent where new technology meets real money. He built and led Watson Media Sales for AI/ML in North America at IBM — including the Emmy-winning IBM and Fox Sports "Highlight Engine" at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, and 420% year-over-year growth in AI revenue.

As EVP of Commercial Strategy and Business Development at Piksel he drove 66% revenue growth, 40% margin expansion, and a 10x valuation. At Delivery Agent he scaled the business from under $30M to $93M in two years. He co-founded Transpera, one of the first mobile video advertising platforms, through to its acquisition by Tremor Video.

He is still building. Aevara Health is an AI-native venture running live multi-agent systems in production today. When we talk about AI-native go-to-market, we are describing how we operate — not a service line we added last quarter.

We are not a body shop, and we are not a solo shingle.

Aeneas assembles small teams of operators — people who have carried a number, owned a P&L, and shipped the thing — matched to the specific problem in front of you. No pyramid. No junior analysts learning your business on your budget. You get the people whose names are on the engagement.

02 — Domain expertise

Markets we have already
been paid to understand.

Not verticals on a slide. Places where we have closed contracts, carried quota, and lived with the consequences.

Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning

Commercializing AI where it has to produce revenue, not a pilot.

Media, Entertainment & Streaming

OTT platforms, sports rights, content supply chain, and distribution economics.

Digital Advertising & Ad Tech

SSP, DSP, SSAI, and the money that moves underneath the stack.

Marketing Technology

Stack strategy, data, and the systems that turn spend into pipeline.

Digitization & Platform Transformation

Legacy businesses rebuilt as software businesses, without breaking the revenue they still depend on.

Creator Economy & Consumer Brands

Built from the inside. We run our own, so we are not guessing.

03 — Services

What we are hired to do.

Engagements are scoped to an outcome you can measure, not an hourly rate you have to justify.

Business Development & Revenue Generation

Named accounts, opened doors, signed contracts. We work the pipeline ourselves — we do not hand you a framework and leave.

Go-to-Market & Sales Strategy

ICP, segmentation, pricing, packaging, and the motion that actually converts in your market.

AI-Native Strategy

Where AI belongs in your product, your go-to-market, and your cost structure — and, just as usefully, where it does not.

AI Revenue & Sales Leadership

Fractional CRO and sales leadership for companies selling AI into the enterprise, where the buyer is still learning the category.

Partnerships & Alliances

Hyperscaler co-sell, GSI channels, and platform partnerships built to produce revenue rather than a press release.

Commercial Value Creation

Diligence, revenue architecture, and margin work for private equity and venture-backed portfolio companies.
