Is Your Product Development Process a Mess?
Poor communication, missed deadlines, product roadmaps that lack validity are symptoms of an underperforming product development process.
People I Helped With Product Development
Sean was critical in helping CSBS build a strong product function. He helped us build a data-driven product roadmap that delivers a strong ROI for our organization. I’ve taken to referring to him as the ‘product whisperer’.

Hi there, I’m Sean.
I’m a software product strategist specializing in helping financial services and fintech companies succeed with software.
I’ve built numerous software products and companies myself. I know what works and what doesn’t from my 15+ years of experience.
Why Product Strategy
I’ve been in every seat of a software product company from software engineer to CEO. Over 15+ years I’ve learned that every successful software company has a solid product strategy.
I’ve helped companies like The Vanguard Group, Conference of State Bank Supervisors, Compass Working Capital and more develop and execute successfully with a product strategy that produces exceptional results.
I specialize in helping companies anywhere from financial services all the way to fintech B2B SaaS and Artificial Intelligence.
My process typically starts with discovery to map out the shortest path for your B2B SaaS from where you are currently to where you want to go.
Let’s find out if your company could be more successful with my help. To learn more, schedule a free consultation with me.
