As a marketing manager and brand strategist I like to build concepts & strategies and follow them through to expected results. I apply big picture thinking to every day planned action. Always built up a strong story and stick with it.As a business developer I dive in new start-ups and use all skills and experience to make it successful. I always take it as a challenge to develop a new project.Here is how I can do it:• Over the past 18+ years I was designing, setting up and running local and international marketing department strategies that generated expansion in other markets, clear portfolio development and drove long term growth, with increased brand awareness. • Whether implementing the strategies of well-known brands or start-up completely new brands and product lines from scratch, brand building is a major part of my everyday interest and passion.• I generated and sustained relevant business relationships, which turned into partnerships, whether with suppliers or local and international distributors. This is the foundation to build on and drive business development.• Built trust and motivation within local teams or international partners’ teams, with honesty, joint standards and principles and even humor. These teams are the heart and soul of everyday activities that bring the growth, but also the fun. Because after all, you have to have some fun also!
