Business Development Intern
About the team
Yanisa is an AI-first business growth and execution ecosystem built to help founders and businesses turn ideas into scalable companies.
Yanisa combines AI, technology, growth, media, and physical infrastructure under one ecosystem. Rather than operating like a traditional consulting or marketing agency that primarily provides recommendations, Yanisa focuses on hands-on execution—identifying business constraints, building the required systems, and owning the execution until measurable outcomes are achieved. Yanisa Execution
The ecosystem operates through four core engines:
- Yanisa GaaS (Growth as a Service): Sales, operations, GTM, and revenue execution.
- Yanisa Tech: AI agents, automation, CRM, software, and technology infrastructure.
- Yanisa Media: Personal branding, content, podcasts, distribution, and inbound growth.
- Yanisa Coworking: A founder-focused physical environment and community for building and operating businesses. Yanisa Execution
At its core, Yanisa believes that the future of business growth is not about simply working harder, but building better systems. AI-native execution, automation, data, human expertise, and structured operating processes come together to help companies move faster and scale with less operational friction.
Today, Yanisa states that it has served 100+ founders and deployed 50+ AI systems, with its operating model focused on achieving tangible results quickly rather than producing strategy decks without execution
