What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own go-to-market execution, grow revenue through strategic partnerships, and drive measurable pipeline performance—combining lead generation, CRM rigor, and digital marketing to accelerate client acquisition and brand positioning.

I’m a results-driven Business Development professional with proven experience driving revenue growth, building strategic partnerships, and executing go-to-market strategies across local and international markets. I specialize in lead generation, stakeholder engagement, and sales pipeline development—converting opportunities into measurable business outcomes.

As Founder & Director of Marvel Resolutions, I established digital marketing strategies (SEO, content, and social media), acquiring 30 new clients in 12 months and executing 80+ lead generation campaigns with a 45% conversion rate in the tech industry. I also align go-to-market strategy with commercial and B-BBEE objectives, delivering a 10% increase in market share, and I’ve contributed to pipeline and proposal wins across APAC/UK and B2B sectors.
