About Marianna

I support growing organisations in structuring their sales performance and strengthening manager effectiveness during phases of scale or transition.

With over 20 years in sales environments and 13+ years across sales operations and enablement in global tech companies, I help teams move from individual performance to sustainable systems.

I typically work with organisations experiencing:

• Rapid growth without structured sales processes
• Newly promoted managers lacking enablement
• Inconsistent conversion and unclear KPI ownership
• Misalignment between sales execution and customer journey

I deliver practical, business-driven interventions, including:

– Sales performance diagnostics (4-week audits)
– Sales process optimisation
– Manager performance frameworks
– Onboarding and ramp-up design
– Sales enablement strategy & execution

My work is hands-on, structured and impact-focused — designed for real operating environments, not theoretical models.

Available for project-based and fractional engagements (remote, hybrid, or onsite if in Cataluña). I work fluently in English, Spanish and Italian across European and international teams.
