Founder Story
NetNuu, a division of Extension, Inc was founded by Mazio Barian (you can call him Maze) after almost three decades in executive recruitment and building one of Wisconsin’s leading
recruiting firms.
After starting his career in 1999, Mazio co-founded Extension and helped grow the business from $0 to more than $12M in annual revenue while serving as CEO.
Over the years he worked closely with manufacturers and industrial technology companies across the Midwest including organizations such as Rexnord, Briggs & Stratton, Johnson Controls, Milwaukee Tool, Dedicated Computing, Steelhead Technologies, and Rockwell Automation.
As industrial companies increasingly become software companies, hiring the right go-to-market leadership has become more complex.
NetNuu was created to focus specifically on that challenge — helping founders and revenue
leaders hire GTM executives who can navigate both industrial environments and modern SaaS
revenue models

Why Hiring GTM Leadership
in Industrial SaaS Is Different
- Industrial SaaS companies operate in complex buying environments.
- Sales cycles are longer.
- Buyers are technical.
- Revenue growth depends on leaders who can navigate both operational and software worlds.
- Hiring the wrong GTM leader at a critical growth stage can slow momentum for years.
- NetNuu was built to help founders make these decisions thoughtfully.
