Testimonials
As we continue to expand internationally, the EMEA region remains an integral part of our growth strategy. In order to fortify our regional GTM, and accelerate our channel relationships, Appnovation invited John into our business as an advisor and partner in Europe. John's market understanding, diverse network, sales acumen, and strategic approach to revenue growth has helped us establish new relationships and opportunities across the territory, and has helped us drive new revenue growth in the region. He's absolutely brilliant to work with.

It's been a pleasure working with John, who was introduced to us by one of our investors as part of their expert network. John was quick to understand our specific business needs and pain points within the context of our industry and company maturity and then offer sage and insightful advice off the back of it which has already been implemented. John has practical knowledge and delivers his advice in a way that is easy to understand and execute against. For those looking for an advisor to assist with their GTM, we would unreservedly recommend him.

International growth in the UK and European market is very important to us at Kentik as a fast-growing US headquartered business. We engaged John on an EMEA leadership talent initiative, leveraging his vast network in the region. His professional approach, adaptability, collaboration, and consultative communication style were very much appreciated during our engagement. We would recommend John as an Advisor for companies who wish to extend their reach and growth across the EMEA market, in particular to talent-related initiatives.

I hired John as Looker's VP EMEA to build out our expansion in the region. In the 6 years that John was leading our EMEA operation, he grew the EMEA business consistently year over year. This was done by taking a very programmatic & strategic approach. He created a robust EMEA GTM plan, built a high-performing team, and aligned his cross-functional leadership team around the EMEA revenue goals & strategy. This resulted in growing our top markets in UK, DACH, Nordics, and France. He scaled the EMEA business from an SMB segment focus to Enterprise, across multiple industries. He drove GTM initiatives which were deployed at a global level. John's expertise at growing EMEA markets will be a significant addition to any company wishing to internationalise their business.
