About Olivier

For over 15 years, I have been helping leaders of small businesses and their teams anticipate changes in their business environment to adapt their positioning and development strategies and innovate in the products and services they offer to their clients.

My support is both comprehensive yet pragmatic and very operational: As a co-pilot, I help you establish a winning strategy and break it down into an operational roadmap that covers financial management, team management, organization, and sales development.
Expert in artisanal and commercial activities, I am as comfortable with service industries as I am with those that shape matter by valuing manual or creative know-how.

I also support project leaders who are embarking on an entrepreneurial adventure with a meaningful activity that has social and environmental added value.
I help them define their business model, conduct market research and deployment strategy, as well as seek public or private funding.

Monitoring (competitive, technological, commercial) and information research (qualitative or quantitative market research) are in my DNA: finding the right information, at the right time, for the right decision.

Whether you are a larger structure, regardless of your sector of activity, I provide a la carte monitoring and information research services, as well as various studies: technological state of the art, competitive benchmarking, qualitative study, quantitative survey via social networks, focus group moderation, etc.

Energy, pragmatism, empathy, responsiveness, and creativity are the values I bring to my clients, for comprehensive yet operational support.

  • Ilya Tech
    Marketing Launch Strategy

    I assisted Ilya in highlighting their offering compared to the competition, as well as in customer segmentation, particularly for the B2B sector. Following this, I helped the two founders conduct market/usage studies to better understand the practices of individuals and certain professionals (hospitality, campsites, etc.) through online and qualitative surveys. Then I helped them work on their launch marketing strategy, including pre-orders to initiate production.
    This work enabled them to build their pitch and raise €150k from business angels on the show "Qui veut être mon Associé" (Who wants to be my partner?).
