I had the pleasure of being introduced to Rosemary in 2021 whilst on a business accelerator. Prior to building my business, I had no previous product experience and needed support understanding and implementing the founding principles of building a product. Rosemary provided me with an excellent foundation for setting goals, testing hypotheses with users and ultimately, trying to build a product that people want to use. I would highly recommend Rosemary’s coaching practice for any new entrepreneur building their first product.

I had the privilege to work alongside Rosemary, scoping out a product launch for 2023. Although she was relatively new to Spotify at the time, no one could tell as she commanded the room with the same confidence that she had a command for what the product is and what the product could be. She was the shepherd we needed to guide us through our project in an efficient manner... building out use cases and solutions ahead of schedule. She pushed for high quality solutions without letting perfect be the enemy of the good. Even when projects were ultimately not pursued due to reallocation of budgets/priorities, all of us felt proud of the work we did under Rosemary's guidance. She'd be a godsend to any team she joins.

Early in my product journey, I was fortunate enough to have been trained in Product 101 by an engaging, energetic, insightful, passionate and wise Rosemary King. We've kept in touch over the years and I still to this day continue to use (and teach my teams) the same techniques and theories. But, just as importantly, that passion for Product that Rosemary so expertly demoed all those years ago!
