Interim Manager

Work Experience

During the past years I developed my own new company in Strategic Marketing and Management based on my experience. After my graduation I started as Product Manager for a technical productline of a Swiss and a German supplier. The productline was developed for the medical and industrial markets with all different certificates and needs. In my position I was responsible for the complete cycle starting with development, contracts, delivery untill after sales. New Business Development was also one of the area's I worked on for the future and build a strong and reliable company with whom customers like to work.

After I spend 5-6 yrs in this adventure I was asked to start a new company as a spin off for a Venture Capitalist. They developed a new technical Product for one customer and it was necessary to develop a Business Plan for the future to answer the questions like: Is this a growing market? Is there a place for us? Is our product reliable? etc.
So, I started with a Senior Technical Engineer and worked together with him to get a better understanding of the patented Product (the USP's). This took a few weeks and in the meantime I started with the marketing side and desk research. After that field research was necessary so I started to attend worldwide conferences and visited many players in the market as well as potential customers like Hewlett-Packard, Lexmark, Kodak etc. During the fieldresearch we already received Orders for new developments from all over the world. Within a few yrs we grew to 8 employees and had many customers all over the world. We also started with a new trading business besides the development while our relations liked our Business Model. After 4 years we acquired our sister company and also developed and produced products for them. Until I started my own business I worked with this company with a lot of pleasure and I developed the skills and experience to advise other companies on strategic descisions that they have to make.
