What do you do next? Sometimes you get stuck and need a path forward. Sometimes you need someone to bounce ideas off. This is when you need a brand and marketing strategy to narrow down possibilities and determine where you go next. Tactics (SEO, Social Media, Email) change daily. But solid marketing strategy is based on time-tested fundamentals. I am an expert in brand and marketing strategy having spent 10 years working at Procter & Gamble and Coca-Cola across iconic brands. I built my own company (PEREGRUNE) using these skills and discovered a passion for startups and growing businesses. I love branding and growing businesses. Let me help you exceed your business goals.

✓ Experienced Silicon Valley software executive, founder and technologist ✓ 6 co-founder roles in venture-funded startups and 4 substantial exits ✓ Experience with bootstrap, angel and venture funding. Every new venture's journey is different, but the patterns and best practices repeat. Working with a startup advisor and executive coach will shorten your time to success, avoid wasted effort and accelerate your learnings. A small investment near the beginning of a project can have a huge impact on its trajectory and eventual success. Any directional decisions you make about your business, product and technology should be informed by a full understanding of your market and trends, and by an understanding of what works and why. In many business situations, experience is worth its weight in gold. Using agile processes, I work with founders and founding teams to create, evaluate and refine: Market Opportunity: identification, scoping and validation Product Strategy: ideation, needs analysis, competitive & partner landscape, prototyping, primary and secondary research and development Business Plan: multidimensional analysis, work breakdown, stage gate milestones Financial Strategy: pro forma modeling, monetization. debt and fundraising Pitch Development: targets, positioning, messaging, variants and testing Business Development: partnerships, channels, licensing, acquisitions Team: co-founders, stage appropriate executive staff, consultants, sensitivity and diversity in hiring, including headcount planning, sourcing, interviewing, nurturing and separating from team mates Software Technology: cloud, mobile and legacy architectures, AI/ML, tools and platforms, cloud services, user experience Marketing and Market Entry Strategies: segmenting and targeting early adopters, product-led marketing, digital and content marketing, word of mouth/net promoter scoring, organic and viral growth engines, brand development Legal: business formation and structure, contracts including funding, indemnification, compensation and options, trademark and patent IP protection Customer Success: self-service and online support, user communities, app instrumentation and analytics I work in close partnership with founders and founding teams and so can only work with a limited number of companies at any one time. My role is to help in both your professional and personal journey so complementary interpersonal style and chemistry is important to the process. My suggested approach is to have a short conversation about your project and see if there is a good fit.

My name is Matt. I am based out of Minneapolis, MN. I can accommodate any time zone as you need. I have started and scaled multiple businesses in different industries to millions of dollars in sales profitably. I own and operate businesses in 5 different states managing 100+ employees. I have been successful in my endeavors because I understand what it takes to start and scale a company to millions of dollars in sales profitably. Over the past 5 years I have focused much of my business consulting on startups. I love helping bootstrapped founders / business owners launch their products, services & business by identifying founder goals, building business plans, go to market strategies, processes & systems that support the founders goals. My Resume: I have dedicated both my personal and professional life to helping others live with intent. For the past 20 years, I have built and managed multiple businesses that do just that. Through a portfolio of companies, I create opportunities that promote self-discovery and enable our customers to experience emotion. Born into a family of entrepreneurs, I founded my first company while I was still in high school. Since then, I have repeatedly identified new opportunities and moved quickly to build the organizations, products, and resources to open new markets and create meaningful impact. Regardless of the industry-from professional sports to escape rooms-my teams and I work every day to create a world in which we want to live, one filled with intent. Career highlights: ➜ Pioneered a cutting-edge product and service strategy that developed an adventure park into the area’s top-ranked destination for experience-based entertainment. ➜ Launched and led a business that became the nation’s third-largest escape room company. ➜ Established company that became the official statistics provider to two professional sports leagues. Underpinning my successes is my ability to create winning marketing strategies that fuel rapid growth. By fully understanding the market and target customers, I create resource-light and high-ROI growth marketing campaigns across digital and traditional channels. Further, by creating a culture that encourages personal and professional growth, I surround myself with employees that go the extra mile for our customers, our co-workers, and ourselves.

I help early-stage startups turn demos into revenue. As a former GTM and monetization lead at Amazon, Bill.com, and Wayfair—and now a Venture Partner investing in AI and fintech—I bring a hybrid operator-investor perspective to growth. If you're launching a new product, refining pricing, or struggling with trial-to-paid conversion, I can help you build a focused, scalable GTM plan and execute on it with your team. Core areas I support: 1. GTM strategy, funnel design, and customer acquisition 2. Pricing and monetization models (including self-serve and annual plans) 3. PLG and onboarding optimization 4. Retention, upsells, and revenue expansion I’ve helped startups unlock $4–12M in ARR within a quarter by identifying key growth levers, improving monetization, and driving adoption. My approach blends strategy and execution. Let’s connect if you’re ready to scale efficiently without hiring a full-time Head of Growth.

Top 1% Expert-Vetted Talent on Upwork. I don’t just understand what’s possible with AI — I define it. But AI is just one part of the puzzle. I help companies build bold, differentiated product strategies — from scratch or chaos — and turn them into minimum lovable products that are sticky, smart, and built to last. I'm Joshua Segeren — founder, builder, strategist, and hands-on engineer. I’ve spent 10+ years turning ideas into scalable, high-impact products — from launching Microsoft 365 AI features used by 50M+ users, to building two profitable tech startups solo (yes, I designed, built the MVPs, and got them to traction myself). What I Bring: - End-to-End Product Strategy: From zero to MVP and beyond — I’ll help you define what to build, why it matters, and how to make it win. - Product Surgery: Have something live or in development? I’ll rip it apart (and tell you what you need to hear) — product, strategy, plan, roadmap. Whatever’s holding you back, I’ll find it and help you fix it fast. - AI & Emerging Tech Depth: I’ve shipped AI products using LLMs, computer vision, NLP, and more. I know what’s real, what’s coming next, and what’s hype — and how to build. - Technical Strategy & Feasibility: I bridge business goals and technical realities — helping you scope roadmaps, validate ideas, align budgets, and build execution plans your team can actually deliver on. - Customer Experience Focus: I don’t stop at “viable” — I push for lovable. The goal is sticky, differentiated, and emotionally resonant products customers remember and come back to. Employment History: Founder (CEO/CTO) | ShopCierge.ai 2024 – Present I built ShopCierge to give every online store a superhuman sales and support rep. It’s a GPT-4-powered shopping assistant that guides customers through their buying journey — answering questions, recommending products, upselling, and overcoming objections — all in real time, 24/7. It doesn’t just cut support costs. It increases conversions and cart sizes automatically. No training. No scripts. Just results. Bootstrapped, profitable, live on the Shopify App Store with a 5-star rating and adoption across dozens of merchants worldwide. Founder (CEO/CTO) | Fluid.computer 2022 – Present Fluid lets people control software — apps, experiences, displays — using just their hands in mid-air. No hardware. No gimmicks. Just camera + computer vision. It’s the world’s first software-only motion interaction platform. Feels like sci-fi, runs on normal devices, and unlocks a whole new category of touchless, 3D, natural interfaces. We’re piloting it with retail and experiential partners who want to wow users and rethink how people interact with tech — without making them touch a thing. Senior Lead Product Manager | Microsoft 2016 – 2022 I started and built the AI Language Experiences team at Microsoft 365 — before “AI” was a thing anyone took seriously. I connected Microsoft Research, Azure AI, and product teams to deliver the first-ever AI-powered features inside Office. We reimagined how presentations and communication should work — launching Live Captions & Subtitles (accessibility by default) and AI-powered Translation (global collaboration by default). These features now serve 50M+ users daily across PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and more. From zero to shipped: I set the vision, convinced stakeholders, rallied engineers, and got AI into some of Microsoft’s most sacred products. Five years. Zero hype. Real AI, real impact. Client Outcomes: What Clients Get: Outcomes That Actually Matter My work spans startups, public/private market investors, and small businesses — each with different needs, but one goal: clarity and momentum. For investors, I provide deep insight into AI trends, product roadmaps, and feasibility — helping them place smarter bets, evaluate teams, and cut through hype. For founders and product teams, I help shape ideas into products that resonate. I’ve built new interfaces that make complex tools simple — like turning Openbox’s capital modeling software into something usable via natural language. Through my own ventures, I’ve helped dozens of businesses automate support, increase conversions, and stand out in crowded markets. Some of my work is private, but the outcomes speak: better strategy, faster execution, and products that stick. Let’s Talk If: - You’re starting fresh and want to build a smart, differentiated product from the ground up. - You have something live or in development — and need to fix, clarify, or refocus. - You’re interested in AI, but don’t know how to build something truly valuable with it. - You’re in a high-stakes moment and want serious product strategy firepower on your side. - You’ll get honest insight, fast momentum, and meaningful outcomes — not fluff. Let’s start with a 30-minute consult and see what we can build together!
