In Today’s Discussion:

1. THE (SALES) JOURNEY BEGINS

Derek’s start in the many facets of sales and marketing, and what he’s brought with him from that world.

2. FLAVOURSYS, THE STARTUP SPRING BOARD

Before it became Projective, FlavourSys was Derek’s first foray into the startup world.
Derek takes us through a misaligned start that eventually led to a re-branding and new beginning as CEO.

3. PROJECTIVE PULLS ITSELF UP BY ITS BOOTSTRAPS

With a few major successes, Projective establishes itself as a player to be reckoned with in the media post-production world.
Victories and stumbling blocks, but always moving forward. 

4. A VIEW TO THE WEST WITH A FOOT IN THE OLD COUNTRY

Lessons from adapting to the German corporate world when you’ve still got American expectations. 

5. WIN LOSE or DRAW

We shoot some concepts at Derek and he gives us his thoughts and predictions about how they’ll turn out:
    1) All media creation moving into the cloud in the next 5 years
    2) Germany becoming a major force in content creation
    3) Sales and Product department valuing each other equally
