"On the paper", this situation can be pretty much like this: level E first (obviously); build some HP (for you're gonna take true damage back as well); get in short range (landing axe first will help you) and BOOM (that is, use E); retreat and wait for CD on E to strike again.

You may want to activate W before dealing true damage, you will get reduced damage back from doing it. And you may wait for the opponent to poke (like Kha) before going in (Olaf is pretty squishy early on). It's been a while since I don't lane with Olaf (been trying on the jungle recently), but like I said, "on the paper" this sounds like Profit.
