I built this website for companies that are exploring hiring their first product manager.
I help companies grow by improving their user engagement, conversion, and retention metrics.
You can hire me directly or use all the free resources on this site to build a better product function in your company.
Hey, guess what? Product management is happening at your company, even if you don't have someone officially wearing the 'Product Manager' cape. Often falls to founders, developers, and marketers who unofficially take on this role. In the chaotic world of startups, where everyone wears multiple hats, daily product decisions occur without coordination or clarity.
Here's the catch: this lack of structure makes sense in early-stage startups. Yet, as your startup matures, these product-related tasks can impede strategic business growth. Those acting as surrogate product managers must shift focus towards core business functions, like founders concentrating on hiring and fundraising.
In essence, while your team may initially thrive in this 'many hats' environment, it eventually becomes essential to establish clear roles, responsibilities, and communication channels to sustain growth and success. Product management should transition from being an afterthought to a strategic pillar of your business.
Because they’re the heroes you deserved, but not the ones you need right now.
Embrace continuous learning and iterative improvement through disciplined product management. Whether it's creating an MVP or launching an internal product, commit to effective practices: clear communication, user-centered design, strategic planning, data analysis, and customer value delivery.
You need someone who thinks holistically along product, engineering, marketing and growth and is willing to try their hand at all of them with you in the trenches. Often the role is more about helping install a cultural shift and new ways of working than anything else.
Go ahead and use all my free resources on this website.
Sign up to my email and you’ll get all the above plus juicy extras.
We can chat over video calls as long as you want. That right, as many sessions as you need. Honestly, no strings, no conditions, it would be my pleasure. Why?
1) I do not want to exclude any startups based on money. Been there.
2) This helps my sales tremendously (obvs huh?)
3) I LOVE speaking with startups!
You can hire me per hour, per day, project based, contract or full time.
Per hour;
I keep my hourly rates ridiculously low. Why? I believe in ‘try before you buy’.
Also, similar to the free calls and free resources;
Unfortunately I can only do a limited number of hours per month. If I have a full time role this option will of course not be available.
Contract and Full time roles
I am open to full time - contract or permanent - roles within Product Management. Open to being approached by recruiters and hiring managers. Happy to share my CV and go through your application processes like everyone else.
Working with startups tends to be all consuming, so of course I only work with 1 company at a time. Once I get hired, I tend to only be available for pro bono work on the weekends.
Book a FREE clarity call with me to see if we have any chemistry! We’ll discuss your challenges, your current constraints and create a roadmap for you to meet your goals.
If it's not a great fit, at least you’ll pick up a bunch of quick wins and knowledge bombs to help you!
