During this period, I worked with top-tier players such as MediaMarkt, El Corte Inglés, and buying groups like Expert, developing business, negotiating commercial agreements, and consolidating long-term relationships in high-demand environments.This experience provided me with a solid foundation in consultative selling, key account negotiation, commercial strategy, and a deep understanding of how to build a competitive offering for real markets. This is a vision that I now apply to the digital environment to help brands and businesses sell better, with more structure and a greater focus on results.

My responsibility focused on driving commercial growth, strengthening brand presence, and negotiating with some of the main players in Spanish retail, including MediaMarkt, El Corte Inglés, and buying groups like Expert.Working for years with leading companies and top-tier accounts allowed me to develop a comprehensive business vision: not just from a sales perspective, but from the real logic that drives the market, the customer, and profitability. That experience is what makes the difference today in my work as an eCommerce expert, especially in Shopify, where I combine commercial vision, strategic focus, and conversion-oriented execution to help brands grow professionally.
