I’m an online marketing expert and campaign leader who effectively scales B2B SaaS companies by using strategic marketing channels, enhanced customer success, team expansion best practices, and my 15 years of core industry knowledge.
Passionate. Honest. Reliable.
I really love my job, and my number one goal is to help your marketing team reduce its learning curve, enabling you to find new and reliable ways to notably improve your revenue generation and retention.
With over 10 years of software Marketing experience, particularly in SaaS, and having worked at two Deloitte Technology Fast 50 companies as well as various small venture-backed startups, I have learned to thrive with teams of all shapes and sizes.
In the last 5 years…
- As Chief Marketing Officer at Smartlook, I oversaw 10+ marketing channels that successfully generated paying customers.
- I’ve personally designed and implemented marketing strategies that have generated millions in revenue for several B2B companies.
- I grew a startup from 0k ARR to $4M ARR without any large funding internal or external, helping us to even further retain ROI.
- I organized SaaS Movement, the largest SaaS conference in Central Europe consisting of two successful bespoke events that took place in Brno, Czech Republic.
- I consecutively doubled our revenue 3 times in a row without any major funding, 99% of which was Marketing team-driven, and critical to the company's upgrowth.
By applying my own tried and tested methods, which I developed over the course of several marketing leadership roles since 2012, I can help your team optimize their customer acquisition costs as well as their customer lifetime value, and help your organization optimize its ROI.

You don’t need to take my word for it, the reports below from Forbes, VentureBeat, and TechCrunch speak volumes. Building your company and brand to a sustainable level is no easy task, and my services will help you thrive in today's B2B SaaS jungle.
-
“It has been established that startups, that receive the help of mentors, grow almost 4 times faster in their field and attract as much as 7 times more venture capital than developing on their own.”
-
“That’s right, just four percent of SaaS companies reach $1 million in revenue, and only .04 percent make it to $10 million.”
-
“Entrepreneurs often spend hundreds of hours raising funds from angel and venture capital investors. While these activities are clearly important, analysis of new data on startups suggests that founders should also dedicate significant time to something that many people overlook: recruiting great mentors. This simple strategy can increase a company’s odds of success more than almost anything else.”
Your short-term and long-term marketing planning is critical to your business growth, and I can help you with both.
