Bio
Sebastian Forsström
Few people I have worked with reach Jakob's heights when it comes to work ethics. He works hard, but he is also smart about his work. He is one of few marketers I have managed or met who doesn't use market research as an alibi, but actually draws insights and shapes his strategy based on it. It sounds like something a good marketer should do, but in reality very few people actually live up to that. Jakob is one of those people who do. He also understands numbers, and not only in the sense of keeping check of a budget. He understands what moves the needle, which is another fairly rare skill. In summary, Jakob is a gem for anybody who wants to put their product to market. He'll get the job done.

Working with Jakob was a real pleasure. He has a very good understanding of marketing processes and deliverables. He can create a marketing strategy and be flexible enough to adapt it to a changing production timeline while surfacing top risks and ways to mitigate them. He's a good leader for his team, a friendly and transparent team player, very organized and diligent. He's a marketing strength for any product team and I strongly recommend him.
