Summary

As an international B2B Revenue Marketeer and Fractional CMO with 25 years’ experience globally, I am very interested in helping you solve your B2B Revenue growth, commercial and Board-level marketing ROI challenges.

As a 30-year B2B marketer who has built his career at the intersection of technology evolution, team and business transformation, I am uniquely positioned to serve as your market lead evangelist and drive your next Board & GTM chapter of growth in the AI-led space.

Proven Track Record in Complex Technology Positioning

My experience aligns perfectly with your needs.

AI-Native Leadership for the Modern Era

I've positioned myself as a "CMO to Watch 2025," specifically focusing on how the next era of B2B marketing belongs to leaders who blend AI power with mature, experience-built human expertise.

This philosophy directly mirrors what you need—someone who can navigate the "increasingly noisy AI & complex buyers space" with authenticity and substance over showmanship.

Revenue-Focused Marketing DNA

Your requirement to understand enterprise, mid-size & tech fields/buying cycles resonates deeply with my approach. I've spent years developing structured, pragmatic programs that transform B2B marketing into "ROI engines," helping CMOs prove 200-500% marketing ROI to their CEOs.

Mentorship-Driven Leadership Philosophy

The recommendations from my former team members highlight what I consider my greatest strength: mentorship-centric leadership. I gave space to develop career & skills while staying on top of the latest trends with an analytical, data-first mindset. This collaborative approach will be essential in recruiting and developing your top talent needed across thought leadership, content, and product marketing functions.

Ready for the Challenge

Having successfully navigated multiple business transformations—from traditional consulting to AI-powered marketing, from startup to scale-up environments—I understand the "evolving org structures" and ambiguity that come with pivotal growth moments. My willingness to work remote/hybrid and engage markets directly aligns with your requirement for proximity to customers and partners.

I am excited about the opportunity to translate your differentiated capabilities into market-defining narratives that drive measurable business impact. I would welcome the chance to discuss how my experience-built, AI-powered approach can accelerate your transformation from well-kept secret to category-defining platform.
