Lots of companies are great at technology. They have visionary founders, great tech teams and have built brilliant products. The leadership can easily articulate a technology roadmap for the next 3 years but when asked about how they're going to get the next 10, 20, 30 customers, they usually resorted to one sentence answers: "adwords", "word of mouth has worked up to now", "we're going to this tradeshow".When we see great technical companies struggling in the market against companies with inferior products and services, we're seeing technical companies who didn't think ahead with their sales.I can support you building and executing a sales strategy to take you to the next level.

I was contracted part-time by "BBC Backstage” project to administrate the R&D VM cluster known as "“Playground”.
