Facilitation

As facilitators, we run workshops and help organize the outputs into stakeholder aligned and agreed projects for execution.

Operators

Advisory

I've been subject to startups hiring so-called 'advisors' who contribute jack-didly-squat to real world requirements while demoralizing teams.

Rest assured I work with leadership to find an appropriate contribution that I or other Cyclic Media, Inc. partners can provide — without stepping on toes within your team. 

Our advisory service goes beyond dishing out academic advice. Build on real-world experience operating across dozens of industries we'll add practical advice for any growth challenge.

Contact Gavriel about your situation and I'll connect with you the right person in my network or if you're looking for a full-time Head of Growth or Strategic Product Marketer see my full profile page.

Feedback

Joost Schouten

Founder, Nestr

Gavriel supported us in sharpening our business case and pitch.


He has a razor sharp eye and always manages to focus in on the areas of concern your business needs to pay attention to.


Running a business is all about managing your time so you prioritise the right things. Prioritise Gav and you won't be disappointed 🙂

Jerome Kelsey

Founder, freeos

Gavriel has amazingly sharp insights into marketing, and business acumen.


He has a special gift to be able to break these insights down clearly. His mentorship and generosity is unmatched.


We are extremely grateful to have Gavriel interface with, and guide our senior leadership team to increasing levels of success.


We cannot imagine having a more suitable marketing and business advisor to work with, and I personally cannot imagine how he would not be able to bring massive, transformational value to almost any organisation that wishes to improve their operations, or thinking.

Sterlin Lujan

risk specialist, CCAS, CISC

Gavriel is a marketing genius.


He especially excels in the crypto and fintech space, where he not only understands how to market sophisticated technologies, but he also grasps the complexities of navigating the space and maintaining forward momentum in a fast changing environment.


Gav is also a team player who leverages his skills to get things done. He also comes equipped with characteristic British humor that is needed in almost any fintech/crypo team.


If you ever have a chance to work with Gavriel you won't be disappointed. He is a master of his art and works hard to meet goals and take care of his clients.


He is one of my favorite people to work alongside.
