Sales experience. Marketing expertise. One point of view on revenue.
I started my career in sales — and that never really left me. After over a decade of selling, I moved into marketing, and the difference was immediate. I understood what sales teams actually needed, I understood how buyers thought, and I stopped treating marketing like a brand exercise and started treating it like a revenue tool.
My career has been agency-side — but not in the traditional sense. I have held direct accountability for strategy, budget, and pipeline across multiple sectors simultaneously. That breadth is not a limitation — it is an advantage. While most people spend their careers going deep in one industry, I have navigated the commercial pressures, buyer dynamics, and growth challenges of regulated financial services, cybersecurity, enterprise software, and institutional investment all at once. That exposure sharpens your thinking in ways that a single-sector career simply cannot.

You cannot manage what you cannot measure. Sales and marketing have one goal. The elements that lead to it are different — but they must tie up.

Why a sales-first career matters
Revenue first, always.
Every decision I make gets evaluated against its contribution to the pipeline. Not brand awareness scores, not engagement rates — pipeline and revenue. That comes from having been accountable to a number before I was ever accountable to a marketing budget.
The buyer is a person.
B2B buying cycles are long because they involve trust, relationships, and internal politics. Having spent years on the selling side changes how I design demand generation programs, ABM strategy, and GTM motions from the marketing side.
The system connects the two.
Most misalignment is not about people — it is about structure. No shared ICP definition, no consistent handover, no feedback loop. I build that structure. It is where the compounding starts.
South Africa-based. Available Globally.
Running global accounts from Johannesburg is not a workaround — it is 18 years of proof that geography is not a constraint. Having operated across 17 time zones, 24 languages, and every major market. The capability is built in. There is no adjustment period.
