Michael Markides
Sales Leadership & AI Implementation@Xeus AI
Verified
All in one commercial strategist and salesman, helping professional services businesses thrive in the era of AI.
Here's how I work:
1) making sure your GTM strategy is good enough to work for now, test it, and optimize for the resources you at your disposal.
2) Design an AI transition framework with you that provides a clear path on what/where AI tools and workflows can help you achieve scale - new products, new markets, new geographies/languages, and so on
I specialize in professional services and brands that have a niche carved out, a strong offering, and need to set up to rapidly scale across new products, new markets, new geographies/languages, etc.
By blending just enough strategy with some practical implementation and vision, we can get the momentum going in the right direction for your business.More...
