Armed with these insights, Paul helps business to implement product and marketing strategies to "disrupt by design".The primary, although not exclusive, focus of Paul’s work is startup and early-stage technology companies, assessing whether they have market-disrupting potential and offering specific strategy and tactics to successfully disrupt the market if the potential exists.

These services can range from short-term projects to acting CMO/VP Marketing responsibility.Importantly, Paul views strategy without implementation as next to useless, and is unique in his willingness and ability to get his hands dirty on implementation tactics and actually show his clients how to build, sustain and measure a disruptive business model, rather than simply offering training workshops or strategy documents.Paul invites (and answers) inquiries – just click on the Send a Message link at the top of this profile to reach out.Specialties: Business model design; Business strategy development; Market analysis; Disruptive Innovation; Product strategy; Competitive analysis; Business planning; Complete marketing strategy and planning (incl. segmentation, positioning, pricing, distribution, communication + messaging) appropriate for disruption.
