"Carmen is an exceptional networker with a great talent to build alliances within the organisation she works in and has the ability to influence and gain followship whilst demonstrating a balanced style to achieve truly win-win partnerships. I have headhunted Carmen twice in my career and would not hesitate to recommend her again."

"Carmen built and delivered a successful, well structured Global Channel Partner Program for over 10,000 MSPs at AVG. If you need someone to deliver your Partner Program, Carmen is the right choice and will get the job done."

"Carmen is a brilliant strategic and tactical marketing executive. She maintains a relentless focus on maximizing business impact for every company she works with - whether they are going through a transformation, uncertain about their channel and customer engagement strategies or need to accelerate sales. There are few who can match her sheer energy, drive, creativity and clarity around how to achieve results, while simultaneously inspiring her team, colleagues and business partners to also go that extra mile."

"I worked with Carmen in developing new business in mature markets, developing new routes to market, positioning clear propositions for B2B and B2B2C. She was always full of ideas and displayed high levels of energy at all times; whether it was brainstorming along with the team or at Client sites picking up vital bits of information. She is a master at managing project timelines and is an asset to all project teams that she is given to manage."

"I have known Ayes for over 20 years. He joined my board and contributed much especially in regards to how to wow the customer and how this can be achieved with good marketing. Ayes is a complete fanatic about the customer’s experience and how this enables a proper sales process to exist. He hates people trying to sell untested products that do not work."

"I was impressed at how Ayes was able to quickly initiate and support a successful business activity, and on the back of his action plans and initiatives we grew our market share significantly.  All this in less than 9 months!"

"Ayes successfully assisted me in developing and implementing a clear strategy for a significant part of the business - and over the past two years - it has proved to be exactly right. It’s not easy coming into a long-standing engineering business and driving significant business change but Ayes is very good at getting buy-in and bringing focus on to profitable markets, customers and solutions."

"Carmen is a driven executive with a track record of results in emerging markets and mature markets. Carmen has excellent understanding of how to navigate complex global organizations and gain collaboration from internal and external stakeholders alike. She has deep knowledge of how to meet the needs of the most demanding businesses and end user customers, and she knows how to position products and services to offer real value to them. That's why her teams and peers alike trust her. She doesn't stand still, she looks to innovate"

"Ayes has helped me over the years to significantly improve income generation. He is also skilled at helping businesses to develop relevant value propositions and in working with commercial and finance teams to develop prioritised activities which focus on improving the customer experience."

"I had the privilege of working with Carmen on International strategy and development. Through her creativity, strong customer centricity and understanding of markets, she turned the business from static to growing in a few months. The ‘Carmen difference’ is she will not just set the strategy, but will also drive it and do it herself, hands on. She is able to coalesce colleagues and provide focus and purpose. A great person to work with who can turn her hand to anything and across many sectors."

"Carmen is an extremely talented Sales, Marketing and Commercial management professional. She is results orientated, creative and works well throughout organisations. I recommend her very highly."
