What We Do

Traction Gap Partners is the original Market Engineering Studio.

We partner directly with founders and leadership teams of start ups and enterprises at pivotal moments, installing the Market Engineering system that unifies market strategy, narrative clarity, and execution.

Our approach is built on the five core pillars of Market Engineering: category design or redesign, thought leadership, storytelling, messaging, and positioning. We first defined “Market Engineering” in Bruce Cleveland’s book, “Traversing the Traction Gap,” setting a new standard for how market leaders are built.

As former operators and executives, we don’t just advise like typical consultants. We embed hands-on with your team, equipping you with tried, tested, and proven frameworks honed through years of operating, investing, and advising. We help codify repeatable go-to-market artifacts—from the Market Blueprint and Messaging Matrix to systems that drive clarity and results. Every engagement leverages decades of experience building and scaling category-defining companies, alongside proprietary AI-powered clarity tools, to ensure every move is engineered for market adoption and enduring leadership.
