About Michele
Brand & Marketing Strategy | Go-To-Market | CX & Retention
Castelnuovo Calcea, Italy - 4:44 am local time
My work sits at the intersection of brand intent, consumer behavior, and commercial reality. I design the architecture that aligns these elements and translate it into practical systems and operating models teams can actually run. The objective is focus, coherence, and decisions that compound over time rather than remaining reactive or fragmented.
I bring nearly 30 years of experience across consumer businesses, including fashion, retail, ecommerce, and DTC. My background spans merchandising, customer strategy, CRM, and retention, giving me a 360-degree view of how brand and commercial decisions play out in practice — from planning and buying through to lifecycle value and loyalty.

How I typically help
I usually work across three core areas, depending on where clarity is most needed. Each engagement results in clear frameworks and artifacts that serve as inputs for design, marketing, product, or commercial teams — not one-off recommendations.
1. Brand & Consumer Architecture
Brand strategy, positioning, and brand identity foundations
Clarifying who the brand is for, what it stands for, and the territory it owns.
Typical outputs include:
* Target audience and persona frameworks
* Brand positioning and point of view
* Strategic messaging pillars and tone guidance
* Go-to-market and launch logic (who to reach first, with what, and why)
* Clear articulation of who the brand is not for
This work creates the strategic foundation that designers, copywriters, and marketers can execute against.
2. Customer Journey & Value Architecture
Customer journey mapping, lifecycle, retention, and CLV
Designing how the brand and business show up across the end-to-end customer experience.
Typical outputs include:
* End-to-end customer journey mapping
* Lifecycle and value logic (from first interaction through retention and loyalty)
* Clear definition of channel roles and priorities
* Identification of high-impact moments versus noise
This is where lifecycle, CRM, retention, and CLV are aligned into a single, coherent experience.
3. Commercial & Marketing Systems
Marketing strategy, operating models, and measurement
Turning strategy into something measurable, repeatable, and executable.
Typical outputs include:
* Commercial and marketing operating models
* KPIs, reporting, and forecasting models
* Processes and documentation teams can run
* Prioritization and testing logic to guide ongoing improvement
This work ensures teams can operate independently, make better decisions, and scale without losing coherence.

What to expect
Across engagements, the common thread is bringing order, intent, and shared understanding to complex environments. The work consistently drives strong commercial outcomes, often resulting in double-digit improvements in retention, conversion, or revenue once teams have clarity and systems they can own.
I work well with founders and teams who want to build with intention — whether they are setting foundations early or bringing structure to something that has grown messy. I’m not a copywriter, designer, or channel executor by default. I focus on architecture, systems, and decision clarity, and stay involved until those systems are working in practice.
If you’re looking to align brand, customer experience, and commercial execution into something coherent and scalable, let's talk.
