What others say
Andy has been totally invaluable as we've been getting Spruce off the ground. He has ensured we've created better product, made fewer mistakes, and much moved more quickly. On top of that, he's just a delight to chat to. I would strongly recommend to anyone looking for product coaching or help with product strategy.
I find Andy’s insights extremely valuable for B2B SaaS execs and founders. As someone who has led a startup to exit, he has a great ability to marry his deep technical experience with a real pragmatic approach to problem solving.
Working with Andy as my direct manager and mentor was a transformative experience for me as a product designer.
He taught me how to apply design thinking to solve complex problems and create products that generate value and delight users. He also showed me how to think strategically and communicate effectively with stakeholders and customers.
He is a passionate leader who supports his team and encourages them to challenge themselves and grow. I am thankful for his guidance and friendship and I can confidently say that he is one of the best product people I have ever worked with.
We had launched our MVP and had a number of clients, however we were struggling with misaligned leadership and a disorganised roadmap.
Andy has helped us to put processes in place which ensure our team are working on the things that provide real value to our customers.
The transformation empowered us to align our leadership team effectively, streamline our roadmap, and enhance the efficiency of our customer feedback process.
Andy’s collaboration played a significant role in facilitating these positive changes.
Andy’s been a fantastic guide in my journey to hiring the first dedicated product person at my startup. He’s excellent at demystifying what it takes to do product well, and gave me the confidence to hire an excellent candidate who turned out to be fantastic in the job.
His input has also fed into my own work, helping me ensure we remain product & user centric.
