Vice President of Sales, EMEA (2010 to Now): Promoted to grow €12M portfolio in Europe and the Middle East. Lead 18-member sales and program management team. Sales Director (2007 to 2010): Recruited to establish European footprint by building business with mobile and CE device manufacturers. Spearheaded First-Ever iPhone Mobile TV Solution, Generating €80M in Annual Sales Situation: In 2008, the major wireless carrier Orange asked if PacketVideo had a solution to enable mobile TV on the newly launched iPhone. Internal stakeholders were hesitant to invest in the then-unproven iPhone and competitors had already begun development on a similar product. Approach: Internally, rallied board of directors and engineering team to fund and prioritize project. Simultaneously, managed expectations of Orange stakeholders who were originally in search of a fully developed product. Engaged early in commercial discussion, building a business case to justify the level of engagement to both sides. Convinced Orange to fund €500K development and pay licensing for each download. Delivered solution in less than 6 months, enabling Orange to be the first operator worldwide to have a live TV solution running on an iPhone. Generated €1M in first-year revenue with quality positioning and product that led to 10% of all Orange users downloading it on the 1st day of release. It still generates €800K/year and is the 3rd most lucrative program in company history. Upped Close Ratio 50% & Spurred 20% YOY Sales Increase by Implementing Value Selling Methodology Situation: Long sales cycle, lack of standardized language to discuss opportunity status, and lack of customer insights were resulting in inaccurate sales forecasts. Actions: Evaluated tools and methodologies that could improve forecasting ability and sales results while standardizing sales processes and concepts company-wide. Concluded that the Value Selling approach met our needs. Negotiated with vendor for best possible value while working internally to get buy-in from teams and to meet Sales P&L plan by convincing HQ to invest in the program. 2013: New Vertical Work-in-Progress Set stage for multimillion-euro deal(s), entry into semi-conductor target market, and boost in Asia business. Leveraged chance meeting with executive team member at target company to pitch Video Pocket capabilities. After several meetings in the US and Asia, the deal looks promising. Used travel to Asia to speak with business network and put several potential deals in the pipeline. European Launch & Other Business Wins Established relationships with all Tier 1 carriers in Europe. Generated €1.6M in <6 months, signing agreement with Orange. Reached €7M in sales by 2010, adding contracts with Deutsche Telekom, Telefonica, SagemCom, and LaCie. Added €3M in profit by doing a deep cost analysis on predecessor’s budget, thought to be fully optimized. Broke into auto market, closing $2.3M deal (vs. $750K stated budget) with Bentley to enable movies for passengers via digital signal. Deal led to $400K project with Audi. Enhanced sales team’s ability to meet quotas as well as explain their needs to and get help from other groups. Equipped VideoPacket to discuss individual opportunities and overall sales strategies effectively. Budgeting is easier and more accurate since sales forecasts are more accurate. Positioned Packet Video as Leading Multimedia Project Leader Generating €10M With T-Mobile Situation: In 2009, new Packet Video customer T-Mobile Europe approached Packet Video and several other vendors. They wanted the vendors to collaborate on a rich media solution with no hands-on involvement by T-Mobile. Each of the vendors was vying for a leadership role on the project. Actions: Used business cases and strong business relationships to convince T-Mobile to award leadership of the project to Packet Video. Convinced internal executives to bear the expense of development. Navigated agreements with other providers who were not immediately receptive as they’d hoped to lead the project. Generated €10M Euros in first 3 years since product release, 20% of that as markup on components from other contributors. Opened doors to other major projects with T-Mobile, especially for Packet Video North America. Set precedent of project leadership for Packet Video which has led to many more projects initiated by other Tier-1 carriers.

S EL E CT E D EN DO RS EM E N TS "Pierre is the sharpest vendor I have met: not putting maximum pressure all the time, but cornering you progressively, respectfully and accompanying the waking knowledge of your final need.” – Martin Conan, Technical and Marketing Advisor at Orange “Pierre has a unique ability to uncover new business opportunities. His relentless negotiating skills helped him close the largest commercial agreements for Packet Video… It would give me great pleasure to work with Pierre again in the future— his enthusiasm, loyalty, optimism and positive energy makes him a perfect candidate and a great asset to any company.” – Arkady Shkolnik, former VP Sales & Business Development at PacketVideo “It is not rare that during a customer meeting, Pierre seems to know more about the customer company than the company members themselves. He builds this knowledge thanks to two skills: his talent to create individual intimacy with customer members at every levels and his ability to draw a global picture. Based on this knowledge, he relentlessly tries to find business opportunities. He never gives up, never seems dishearten; going step by step, keeping on setting up meetings and discussions until a deal is done.” – Yves Ramanzin, former team member at PacketVideo
