I help companies reduce cost, improve cash flow, and gain real-time visibility across finance and supply chain—by transforming ERP systems, redesigning processes, and building decision-ready analytics. With 15+ years of international experience (FCCA, CPA), including leading finance at Domino’s Pizza and Mitsubishi Motors distributor, I bring a rare combination of finance leadership + supply chain strategy + SAP expertise. Most consultants either understand finance or operations. I integrate both—so decisions actually work in the real business. Where I add value: - ERP Transformation (SAP S/4HANA, IBP, EWM) Align finance and supply chain processes end-to-end—from planning to execution to reporting - Business Process Modelling (BPMN) Redesign workflows (P2P, O2C, R2R, warehouse & planning processes) to remove bottlenecks and improve control - Analytics & Decision Support (Power BI) Build dashboards that management actually uses—linking operations to financial impact - Financial & Supply Chain Optimization Cost-to-serve, inventory optimization, working capital improvement, CAPEX & ROI modeling Selected Experience: - Domino’s Pizza Led SAP ERP implementation and finance transformation; automated workflows, improved reporting accuracy, and enabled scalable growth through structured planning and control systems - Mitsubishi Motors Managed €45M financing portfolio; optimized treasury and reduced finance costs while implementing ERP for stronger governance - EVERLAM SAP IBP & EWM Consultant; improved planning visibility and warehouse process alignment, supporting better operational efficiency Recent Work Includes: - Power BI dashboards for real-time finance & supply chain visibility - End-to-end business process modelling (BPMN) for operational efficiency - Advanced Excel-based models for inventory, cost optimization, and ROI analysis - VAT setup, bookkeeping, and compliance support for Netherlands-based entities - Integrated business cases combining finance + operations for strategic decisions I focus on practical impact, not theory—clean processes, reliable data, and decisions that improve performance. If you're looking to optimize SAP, improve visibility, or reduce operational cost, let’s talk.

I am driven by a profound passion for tackling company challenges using new ideas and methods. Throughout my career journey, I have been fortunate to encounter numerous instances where I could apply my ardor to drive business challenges. Over 17 years, I have acquired valuable expertise in vision and strategy development, performance management, process improvement, project management, and M&A across various pharmaceuticals, chemicals, construction, production, FMCG, service, and technology sectors. Furthermore, I have successfully led diverse projects (plan, schedule, and budget) and managed multi-disciplinary teams directly as well as the expectations of different stakeholders. I gained valuable experience in governance and decision-making processes during my membership of the Board of Directors and the Secretary of the Board.

You don’t just need someone to run ads. You’ve probably tried that already and realized it doesn’t move the needle. Most agencies and freelancers can’t fix this. They focus on tactics instead of systems, leaving you with a leaky funnel, wasted budget, and inconsistent results. (And no, ChatGPT won’t fix it either.) You need a holistic growth system that turns cold audiences into paying customers. Ads only work when your offer, messaging, and audience are fully aligned. That alignment is what transforms ad spend into consistent growth, and it’s the single biggest gap in digital marketing today. That’s where I come in. I’m Julian, The Holistic Advertising Partner (THAP). I help online education companies scale by aligning ads, funnels, and strategy into one cohesive system that delivers consistent, profitable growth. Why work with me 💼 Former Marketing Lead for a global wellness brand with 120,000+ students 💰 Managed $2.5M+ in ad spend across education, coaching, and SaaS 🚀 Helped 50+ mission-driven businesses launch, scale with optimal ROI 🧠 Built scalable ad systems that drive long-term growth and snowball over time What I bring to the table ✅ No wasted spend. We fix your positioning and messaging first. ✅ Higher conversions. Funnels and creatives refined for performance. ✅ Tailored systems. Launch, evergreen, or membership models. ✅ Flexible engagement. Done-with-you or done-for-you. ✅ Long-term focus. Not a freelancer; a committed growth partner. Let’s create real, sustainable growth Ready to stop guessing and start scaling? Send me a message. I’ll personally review your business and, if we’re a great fit, outline how to build a profitable ad system designed to grow sustainably. Juilan Robin Blauwhoff
