17 years strategy consulting to payment, web and technology clients; top-tier consulting firm experience; Wharton MBA.
My passion/expertise is helping senior executives make big strategic decisions: how to sequence their software roadmap; at what price to sell a media company; whether to offer a new mobile alert service, buy an IT services company, increase transaction processing fees, or shift to a subscription model.
I usually work with technology companies … particularly web content/commerce/applications and payment products/services. Experience in other industries like healthcare, video games and real estate keeps my thinking fresh.
I deliver results. My pricing recommendations have increased one client's profits over $100 million. Another client is a multi-millionaire after I helped him sell his business to a publicly-traded media company.
Client executives and business partners love working with me. They regard me as an easy-going confidante, a clear thinker, and a rational leader not distracted by the moment’s emotion. I seek and deliver the truth – good news or not. I am very analytical and not afraid of heavy lifting. My analyses hold up to scrutiny.
My broad skill-set allows me to work effectively with all functional areas. I feel comfortable talking specs with engineers, brand image with marketers, depreciation schedules with finance, and contract language with legal counsel.
