I'm an experienced Sales and Marketing professional, who focuses on growth strategy for small- to mid-sized businesses. I specialize in communicating complicated value propositions to customers and executing sales plans in B2B industries.
My engineering background, mixed together with my business experience, helps me to break down complex problems and come up with elegant solutions. I am particularly adept at finding ways to explain concepts in "plain English," rather than technical industry jargon.
I enjoy being intellectually challenged, which is why I have worked in a number of different roles and situations during my career. This gives me a unique perspective on business situations that I can then bring to bear for my employers, colleagues, and clients. For example:
- Company Size: large corporations as well as start-ups
- Geography: international and domestic all over North America
- Industry: manufacturing, software, cleantech, construction, finance
- Function: marketing, sales, supply chain
If you're looking for someone to provide assistance with setting a strategic direction, establishing talking points for sales or investor presentations, or creating a sales organization - I'm your guy.
Specialties: B2B marketing, strategy development, presentation skills (both creating and delivering content), coaching and development of team members, structured analysis, negotiations, project management
