General Manager

QuickArrow

As the VP of Product Management I defined the product and process changes required to transform QuickArrow from a low-growth to high-growth company.  This included the implementation of a new market strategy which repositioned the product from a single offer to a tiered set of offers based on the needs of multiple customer segments.  This transformation included migrating the product from a seat-based pricing model to a value and customer-based pricing model.  I successfully transformed all Product Management processes to support an Agile development model utilizing offshore engineering resources.  Included in this transformation was the integration of real-time client feedback from a user community / networking site.
