Grow companies better, faster.
About me.
My name is Ferdinand Goetzen and I help companies grow. I first ventured into the digital sphere almost a decade ago and have been helping companies -primarily startups and scale ups- scale their business ever since.
I believe that new technologies and opportunities make it more exciting than ever to start and grow a business. I also strongly believe that the key to growing any business is creating as much value as possible.
I am currently living in Amsterdam, working as the Chief Growth Officer (CMO) @ Recruitee, one of the fastest growing SaaS companies in the Netherlands.
I am a passionate public speaker and an advisor to a number of early stage startups. I also frequently write about marketing, technology and innovation on my blog.
What I do.
I develop and execute scalable strategies for growth, by focusing holistically on the entire customer journey.
Customer Acquisition
I align marketing and sales and create automated funnels to generate quality leads through paid ads, inbound, SEO, lead magnets, CRO, email automations, and more.
Product Growth
I maximize activation, retention and referrals through a combination of UX, onboarding, feature prioritization, user analytics, product marketing and product localization.
Branding
I help set up brand tracking and build strategy and guidelines to ensure a brand that has a large reach, is highly recognizable and is perceived favourably throughout the market.
