Announcing Product Stride, a product consultancy based on the skills and experience of Sean Sullivan focused on the RegTech and FinTech markets. I have tallied a career of 20 years in various product management and product marketing with a major focus on delivering enterprise solutions to Financial Services Organizations across the globe. Now, as I embark on product consulting, my intent is to focus my expertise where I can add the most immediate value to technology companies at various stages of their life.
Industry Focus
While I have no doubt in my ability to adapt my experience to new and tangential industries, I have decided that the greatest value I can provide my clients is to not only impart my generalized product expertise, but also leverage those areas where I have the deepest domain expertise to supercharge the value of my services. While this necessarily narrows the focus on my business opportunities, I believe that the market is deep enough or a robust business.
Specific B2B enterprise software companies I can best serve:
| Business Maturity | Startup Growth Stage Mature |
| Industries | Financial Technology (FinTech) Regulatory Technology (RegTech) |
| Product Categories | Analytics Platforms Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Solutions Business Intelligence Technologies Financial Crime and Compliance Alert Management, Case Management, and BPM |
| Geographical Reach | Global |
| Deployment/Delivery Models | On-Premise Cloud (Hosted/SaaS/PaaS) Hybrid |
Services Focus
As with the industry focus, I also have a focus on the services I will provide. This is not because I do not want to help my clients succeed by coordinating events or managing their social media content, but these are not the types of activities where I will provide the greatest value.
Here is the initial list of services I will be offering and it will certainly be adjusted over time. For the latest list with more details I encourage you to either visit my Services page or contact me directly.
