Applied Pragmatics is a software product consultancy in San Francisco.
Interim Head of Product. You have a couple of junior PMs but the team is missing targets and things feel unfocused. I'll get the team running smoothly and hire a permanent Head of Product.
In case of emergency, break glass. You have a Head of Product, but they're stretched thin. You need an experienced PM to make sure a critical milestone doesn't get missed.
Forward thinking. You need to figure out (and potentially pitch to investors) an important new opportunity. I bring a wealth of experience in defining and selling new offerings.
Help you focus on your most important opportunities. For startups, focus means speed and speed is everything. We use qualitative and quantitative evidence to help you choose the right target to focus on.
Get everyone on your team aiming at the same target. You don't just need a target, you need everyone at the company working in concert to hit it. That means listening, not just selling (hint: this bullet is not separate from the bullet above.)
Define it. Human-centered product design and clear specifications based on engineering and business realities.
Make it real. Define milestones, build the roadmap, organize sprints, launch and iterate - the fun parts.
