Product Marketing & GTM Consulting

Clarity
that converts.

You've built a product that works. Now it needs a system that sells.
I define positioning, build go-to-market systems, enable sales, and help B2B tech companies expand across EMEA, with senior ownership and zero headcount risk.

The Problem

Scaling breaks what used to work.

You've built something real. But as the company grows, the cracks start to show. In your message, your teams, and your markets.

One product. Ten different pitches.

Your product delivers real value. But marketing, sales, and product each tell a different story. When buyers hear inconsistency, trust drops and deals slow down.

Pipeline that doesn't convert.

Marketing generates leads. Sales rewrites the narrative in the room. Without a shared positioning framework, every team pulls in a different direction. And revenue pays the price.

New market. Wrong message.

What worked in your home market rarely lands the same in EMEA. Different buyers, different context, different objections. Copying your GTM is the most expensive way to find that out.

The solution

Senior thinking.
Hands-on execution.
No headcount risk.

I embed into your team to build the positioning, structure, and tools that turn a complex product into a story everyone tells the same way. And a market entry that actually sticks.

1

Market positioning

One story. Every team. Every room.

We define what makes you different, who you're really for, and why it matters. Then we turn it into a shared foundation that marketing, sales, and product actually use. No more ten different pitches.

2

Go-to-market structure

A plan that survives contact with the market.

Defined segments, launch architecture, and cross-team messaging. Built to move fast and stay aligned. Strategy that doesn't live in a deck. It lives in how your teams execute.

3

Revenue enablement

Give sales the story that closes.

Battlecards, narratives, decks, and case studies built around real buyer conversations. Tools your team adopts, not archives. So pipeline converts, not just grows.

Four languages. One consistent story. Built for EMEA expansion.

Who this is for

Revenue shouldn't feel this hard.

That's usually when focused product marketing adds the most value.

Your product works. Your story doesn't.

You have traction, real customers, and a product that delivers. But no consistent way to explain why it wins. Every conversation starts from scratch.

A launch is coming. No time to hire.

There's a real deadline. You need senior ownership that steps in fast and delivers without a 3-month hiring process slowing everything down.

Marketing and sales are telling different stories.

Marketing builds the narrative. Sales rewrites it in the room. By the time it reaches the buyer, the message has shifted. You need one source of truth.

Entering EMEA without a local playbook.

Spain, Italy, France, UK. You know the opportunity. You need someone who understands the buying culture, not just the language.

No one owns the message. So everyone does.

Positioning and messaging get handled by whoever has five minutes. The result is a story that shifts depending on who's in the room.

Growth has slowed. And no one knows why.

Product ships, marketing launches, sales pushes. But conversion stalls. Without sharp positioning, everything becomes optimization without direction.

About

I have built PMM from zero three times.

At PayPal I learned what enterprise-grade B2B GTM looks like at scale. At CornerJob I led the repositioning after a major acquisition, shipping new messaging and launches in weeks. At seQura I built the PMM function from scratch and opened new categories.

I've seen what clarity does to a pipeline. And what confusion costs. 15+ years across B2B SaaS, fintech, and HR tech. I don't do generic strategy decks or six-week discovery phases. I get into the work fast, because that's where the real problems show up.

Barcelona-based. Fluent in English, Spanish, Italian, and French. If you're entering Southern Europe, I understand the buyers, the culture, and how deals actually get made.

FAQs

Questions I hear most.

What does a Product Marketing consultant actually do?

I help B2B SaaS startups define clear positioning, sharpen their ICP, structure go to market strategy, and align marketing, sales, and product around one commercial narrative. From Barcelona, I work with Series A and Series B companies across Spain and EMEA that need senior product marketing expertise without hiring a full time executive.

How is this different from hiring a marketing agency?

Agencies optimize campaigns and channels.
I focus on positioning, messaging, ICP definition, and sales alignment. If the foundation is unclear, more traffic will not fix conversion. I fix the layer that drives revenue.

Is my Series A or Series B startup ready for Product Marketing consulting?

If you have traction but growth feels inconsistent, messaging is fragmented, or sales adapts the pitch on the fly, then yes. Product Marketing becomes critical when scaling exposes structural gaps.

What does a typical engagement look like?

Most companies start with a focused consulting project such as positioning refinement, go to market design, launch strategy, or sales enablement. After the foundation is defined, some teams retain me monthly to maintain alignment as they scale.

What is the difference between consulting and fractional Product Marketing?

Consulting is project based and solves a defined commercial challenge.
Fractional Product Marketing is an ongoing monthly retainer where I provide senior strategic ownership of positioning and go to market, combined with hands-on execution, without the cost and risk of a full time hire.

Can you support expansion into Spain, Italy, France, or wider EMEA markets?

Yes. I work in English, Spanish, Italian, and French and have built go to market strategies across Southern Europe. Expanding into Spain or France requires adapting positioning to local buyer psychology and deal dynamics, not just translating messaging.

Can you work with technical or complex B2B products?

Yes. Most of my experience is in fintech, SaaS, and HR tech. Complex products require sharper positioning, not more slides. I translate technical depth into commercial clarity that sales teams can use confidently.

Do you integrate AI into your consulting work?

Yes. I design structured workflows where AI supports research, iteration, and enablement at scale. Strategy and positioning decisions remain human led. Tools accelerate execution. Experience drives direction.
