About Juancarlos

Data-Driven Strategies. Measurable Growth.

I turn fragmented market data into actionable commercial intelligence. With over 25 years of leadership experience—including high-level government advisory and driving #1 market share results for global brands like Samsung and LG—I help businesses stop guessing and start growing.

My approach focuses on high-precision forecasting and operational efficiency. Whether you are looking to optimize your supply chain, expand into new markets, or outpace your competitors, I provide the strategic roadmap to get you there. I don’t just deliver reports; I deliver clarity for your most critical business decisions.

How I can help your business:
  • Strategic Market Intelligence: In-depth analysis of import/export trends and competitor benchmarking.
  • The PSI System: Custom inventory management to optimize cash flow and prevent stock issues.
  • Forecasting: High-accuracy sales predictions (95%+) to align your operations with reality.
  • Market Sizing: Granular data analysis to identify exactly where your next growth opportunity lies.
If you are ready to replace intuition with evidence-based strategy, let’s connect and scale your business together.

    Senior Consultant
    CONSULTING AND AUDITS
    April 2025 - Today (1 year and 2 months)
    Guayaquil, Ecuador
    With over 25 years of leadership in market intelligence and strategic development, I specialize in transforming raw data into high-impact growth for the agricultural and bio-business sectors. My expertise lies in bridging the gap between public policy and private enterprise to foster sustainable economic development. I have a proven track record of navigating complex regulatory landscapes, having served as a key architect for national strategic plans that align production chains with global market demands.

    In my recent work, I spearheaded a massive data-driven initiative that involved processing over 500 new business registrations and identifying 1.7 million commercial entities. This project was instrumental in mapping the country’s industrial footprint, allowing for a precise identification of opportunities within the agro-industrial and bio-business sectors. By filtering vast datasets from public and private sources, I provided the clarity needed to mobilize investment, optimize supply chains, and drive territorial intervention strategies that directly contribute to national development.

    My technical approach is rooted in precision. I utilize advanced methodologies, such as the PSI (Purchase, Sales, Inventory) system, to ensure that agricultural projects are not only viable but highly profitable. By maintaining a 95% forecasting accuracy, I help producers and exporters of high-value commodities—including superfoods, dairy, and sustainable bio-products—mitigate risk and maximize efficiency. I focus on building resilient value chains that meet international standards like Global GAP and Fair Trade, ensuring that local production can compete on a global stage. My mission is to convert dispersed information into actionable commercial intelligence. For organizations seeking to scale within the bio-business landscape, I provide the analytical depth and executive experience necessary to transform ambitious projects into sustainable success.

    March 2021 - May 2025 (4 years and 2 months)
    Guayaquil, Ecuador
    With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in transforming complex market data into streamlined commercial strategies that dominate industries. My track record is defined by an unwavering commitment to achieving and maintaining the #1 market share position in highly competitive sectors, most notably within the consumer electronics industry in Ecuador.

    During my tenure at LG, I spearheaded a data-driven transformation that propelled the brand to the top of the TV market. My strategic oversight was not just about growth; it was about resilience. I successfully resolved a critical $7 million debt issue, stabilizing the company’s financial foundation while simultaneously aggressive pursuing market leadership. My impact was immediate: I was recognized as "Employee of the Year" during my first year for delivering exceptional results.

    Under my leadership, the company held the #1 market share position consistently. The effectiveness of my strategies is perhaps best evidenced by the market's shift following my departure—LG immediately transitioned to the #2 position and currently sits at #3. This underscores my ability to build and execute high-performance commercial architectures that drive tangible, market-leading results.

    I offer a unique blend of financial recovery expertise and aggressive commercial exploration. My focus is on replacing intuition with precision, ensuring that every business decision is backed by actionable intelligence to secure sustainable, measurable growth.

  • NEXTLEVEL
    Founder & Senior Consultant
    CONSULTING AND AUDITS
    February 2018 - July 2024 (6 years and 5 months)
    Guayaquil, Ecuador
    From 2018 to 2024, I founded and led Next Level a private consultancy dedicated to converting complex data sets into high-impact commercial strategies. As the technical architect of the firm, I specialized in identifying critical information sources and structuring raw data into streamlined, actionable reports that drive immediate results. My focus is on simplicity and execution: I bridge the gap between "big data" and "ready-to-use" strategy.

    Throughout my leadership at Next Level, I delivered high-value services across several key domains:
    • Market Intelligence & Sizing: I pioneered methodologies for GDP and PIB growth forecasting, allowing clients to anticipate economic shifts. I provided precise market sizing and trend analysis to define exactly where the next growth opportunities lay.
    • Trade Data & Import/Export Analytics: Using specialized import/export data, I developed negotiation strategies for manufacturers and designed competitive pricing models based on real-time competitor movement.
    • Inventory & Supply Chain Optimization: I implemented advanced inventory management and forecasting systems (PSI) to ensure lean operations and improved cash flow.
    • Retail & International Expansion: I conducted deep-dive market studies for placement in major supermarket chains and structured successful export strategies for Ecuadorian products entering the U.S. market.

    I am the "technical brain" behind the strategy. I define the *where*, the *how*, and the *why* of the data. My value proposition is straightforward: I eliminate the guesswork. I provide my clients with a clear, evidence-based roadmap that is easy to execute and designed for rapid commercial success. If you need someone who can turn a mountain of data into a winning business move, I am ready to deliver.
