Great chat with Yasmine talking about the fundamentals of marketing a new product and the kinds of questions we should be asking ourselves, and the kinds of 'moments' we should be aiming to achieve in a user journey. One important takeaway is that others (read: investors) will look at the business in a particular way and place focus on particular metrics, but we do not need to define success in that way alone, or at all.

Yasmine is incredibly kind and incredibly smart, both at the same time! I have in my notebook over 20 highly specific, immediately-actionable to-dos out of this conversation. Everything she shared with me was invaluable but I also really appreciated her open-mindedness and radiating positive energy. These made the session that much more enjoyable.

Peter Antonov

Great call with Yasmine on product-market-fit, she gave us valuable insight in how we should change our strategy and apply a better focus on our customer, thereby saving loads of money and build a better product.

Bio

Leveraging a customer-centric, data-driven conversion optimization methodology, I close the gap between marketing, product, sales, and customer success, placing marketing as an operational system within organizations. I design and implement growth strategies that mix digital and traditional tactics prioritized by impact on revenue. CORE SUPERPOWERS: > Build full-funnel data-driven B2B Growth Marketing Strategies (Acquisition tru to Referral) > Remove marketing that has no impact on your revenue > Turn your website into your best salesperson > Identify leaks in the buyer journey > Build a customer-centric product roadmap > Optimize revenue leaks and highlight opportunities through CRM data information architecture > Untangle growth challenges and identify rinse & repeat growth opportunities > Nail your brand positioning, value proposition, and persuasive messaging > Assemble and coach high-performing teams to implement on-time and budget > Execution & Project Management: I get things done! Tap into 20+ years of customer-centric marketing, advertising, & business development experience working across multiple industries & different stages of growth. I leverage my ever-growing database of problems and solutions, to help startups align sales, customer success, product, and marketing, to find their voice and build their path to accelerate revenue. Fractional CRO/CMO Services: - Find product-Market Fit (min. 3 Month Engagement) - Unlock Series A (min. 3 Month Engagement) - Build high-performance teams - Develop Growth Strategy & Manage Execution - RevOps & Revenue Architecture - Build the foundations for growth As former Head of Client Growth at a B2B SaaS digital marketing agency, I spent +6 years helping disruptive tech startups align product roadmap, services, marketing, sales, and customer success for sustained growth. My strength is optimizing marketing resources and turning vision into an executable marketing roadmap that is prioritized by business impact. After 2 years as Chief Growth Officer at Huddol, a People Empowerment Mobile App with a vision that well-being is at the intersection of being healthy and doing healthy, I then led the growth marketing team at Embodied Labs, a First-Person Immersive Training solution that empowers caregivers to see the world through the people they care for. I am an active contributor on GrowthMentor.com and Tech2Impact where I help startups unlock quick wins and reignite their drive. As an active parent at school, I realize that no matter how small a contribution may seem, it is inestimable and has a visible impact on my children, their friends, teachers, and the community. Born and raised in Monaco, I lived in Dubai, London, Beirut and Montreal. This has sparked a profound interest in human behavior and culture and has taught me to empathize and connect with humility.

Expertise


  • Design / UX

    Do you know what to say on your website to convert visitors into leads, or customers? Don't fall into the common pitfalls of website design. Messaging should always precede design. If you are looking to quickly identify weak areas of your website, that are preventing users from converting, let's talk, because it is not a matter of opinion - but rather data.

  • Growth marketing

    Through targeted questions, I will help you untangle complex challenges and identify growth opportunities. From a marketing & sales perspective, one way to unlock growth is by finding the right angle to position your business using customer-centric qualitative and quantitative research.

  • Product market fit

I will guide you through the most effective quantitative and qualitative customer research methods to help you identify your USP as a base to building an integrated strategy that bridge the gap between sales, marketing.
