Experience

  • CEO at Bidnamic
    Jan 2018 - Present · 8 yrs 6 mos

    Bidnamic is a marketing technology platform that helps retailers unlock the full potential of Google Shopping.   Our platform helps retailers to outrank competitors, increasing revenue and market share – in short, it gives you an “unfair advantage” on Google Shopping.   Bidnamic achieves this by applying machine learning to profile every single product SKU in your catalogue, predicting its optimal bid value algorithmically. Real-time performance analysis and high-frequency bid management increase the efficiency of your ad spend, decrease costs per acquired customer, and enables the full revenue potential of every product. While scaling our own eCommerce store we encountered the same problems faced by all retailers of over or underbidding on Google Shopping at the individual product level, thus Bidnamic was born. We are now working with a selected group of established leading retailers for which we are already delivering 60%+ increases in revenue and are backed and supported by notable Investors; including board advisors to Net-A-Porter, Co-Founder of Booking.com - thought leaders at Google, IBM and founders of many of today‘s fastest growing companies.

    Aug 2010 - Dec 2013 · 3 yrs 5 mos

    Co-founded EcoMarket an online marketplace for Eco-friendly, Natural and Organic products dubbed by TechCrunch as the "Etsy for Eco Products". The site grew to become home to more than 2,000 artisan producers selling tens of thousands of products ranging from fairtrade coffee to organic foods. The platform aimed to recreate the atmosphere found at farmers markets, online, by connecting shoppers directly with producers so they could learn the story behind the products they buy. The business won numerous awards, press features across all national press and targeted blogs as well as investment from high profile Angel investors. I left the company handing over to my Co-founder and the rest of the team to continue the journey.
