Hi, I'm Connie Kwan.

Your fractional

Chief Product Officer

B2B technology companies from seed to Series A hire Connie Kwan.

Why? To

1) clarify their product story,

2) focus on the right product priorities, and

3) set up Product Management that scales.

For companies pre Series B, a fractional CPO will give you the best bang for your buck.

Why? Because you avoid expensive mistakes early on without paying for a full-time CPO. For example, having an immature feedback loop for your product can cost you 3 -6 months of development burn. Perhaps you're not sure if you need a fractional CPO. Use Kwan's Hierarchy of Product Needs to assess your needs. Then, reach out to me if you have unmet Level 3 or Level 4 needs.

I specialize in deeply technical products that have a harder time telling their stories to customers and investors. My clients tend to either

1) Have a technical background and want help on go-to-market, or

2) Have a sales background and want help with building an effective product engine

I have 17 years of Product Management experience at Microsoft, Atlassian, SunPower, OMG Network and more. I've led teams in Product, Marketing, Design and Support. If you need help, please reach out .

As your fractional Chief Product Officer, I'm your sounding board on all things Product, Design and Marketing.

Testimonials

Our product is very complex. It is an infrastructure B2B product and I've always had a hard time communicating what we do to the external layman. Connie's superpower is empathizing with people and helping them understand the story on their own terms. Our story both internally and externally has been lifted by Connie's involvement.

Connie was instrumental in helping our company ‘grow up.' The workshop she facilitated for our team was painstakingly planned and well executed, and infused with energy and humor throughout. We would unhesitatingly work with Connie again, and I would highly recommend her services. Her ability to combine both the ‘poetry’ and ‘prose’ in articulating one’s brand is truly unique.
