The best PMs I know aren’t struggling with skills. They’re struggling with access. After years of quietly helping product people land roles through personal introductions, I decided to see if there was a way I could help even more. That’s why, for years, I’ve helped product people quietly land new roles through personal introductions. From early-career PMs to VPs and CPOs, one conversation at a time.

Every product launch, service ticket, and update is under the microscope of customer scrutiny. And customers are telling you how they feel at every step. The challenge? Turning that feedback into fast, meaningful action. Many tech companies do a great job collecting feedback. They drop in-app prompts, run NPS surveys, and follow up with customers after support interactions.

Without alignment, energy is wasted. This misalignment shows up everywhere: Support teams over-serve small customers.
