@claudiafreudenberg
I build AI-enabled marketing systems that scale B2B growth, brand, and revenue.
What I'm looking for
I currently serve as a fractional CMO for scaling B2B technology and B2C consumer brands, leading positioning, brand, go-to-market execution, and AI-enabled operating systems.
At Neptune Software, I led global marketing and commercial GTM across SAP ecosystems, scaling ARR from under €1M to €50M while sustaining 50% year-over-year growth and achieving Rule of 40 benchmarks. I grew the marketing and SDR organisation from fewer than two to 14 FTEs across Europe, North America, and APAC.
I've built demand generation, ABM, automation, attribution, and brand systems from the ground up, including global repositioning and rebranding efforts. I work closely with executive and board-level stakeholders to connect market narrative, commercial growth, international expansion, and exit positioning.
