The resume highlights his past role as Marketing Director at Electrostar Home Appliances, where he was responsible for marketing planning, sales analysis, advertising, sales support, market research, and competitor surveys.
This document outlines the key topics and challenges for marketing in Europe in 2022 based on a survey of nearly 6,000 marketing/sales managers. The top issues identified include digital marketing, customer experience management, content marketing, and data analytics. While individual digital tools are understood, the challenges lie in orchestrating cross-functional teams and taking a data-driven, personalized approach across all customer touchpoints. Successfully addressing these topics requires integrating strategies, overcoming organizational barriers, and developing the needed competencies from the strategic to implementation levels.
The document discusses key considerations for technology startups, including 6 questions entrepreneurs should answer about their product, market, team, investment requirements, and exit strategy. It emphasizes the importance of solving a significant problem, clearly defining the target market size and competition, trusting the capabilities of the founding team, and doing thorough homework before approaching investors to secure funding. Entrepreneurs are advised to advance their idea into a product and prove its potential without funding if possible, as it builds credibility and reduces dilution of the founder's ownership.
