Dear Treasure Team,
Working with uncertainty and testing assumptions has shaped the core of my business strategy approach. I started building websites in the early days of Internet. After project delivery, I found clients would often ask - now what do I do? Thus, began my journey into learning tactical and strategic approaches to building digital businesses.
Today, I've evolved my own framework to help project leaders think strategically their business models. As an architecture graduate, my sweet spot is working with creatives to help them validate their hunches and creative instincts. After all, I have personally learned the hard lessons that great art and design does not insure success in the marketplace.
The framework above illustrates my thinking to building the marketplace strategy for Trove. The underlying foundation of my approach has evolved from working in creative endeavors to build durable business models while addressing the common missteps that threaten long term sustainability.
I’m excited to meet the Treasure team and discuss the opportunity to help build the Trove marketplace.
Thank you.
