Febechi Okolidoh

Bio Summary

Hi! I'm Febe, strategy consultant and budding entrepreneur.

During my ~3 years as a consultant I've particularly enjoyed getting into the minds of customers and understanding what they want and their pain points, and translating these insights into an actionable strategy (considering market dynamics/ competition). This has included running focus groups, conducting in depth interviews and designing and analysing large (10k+ respondents) surveys.

I'm particularly good at talking to and understanding people/customers and extracting meaning from these conversations (likely stems from my philosophy background and explains my interest in life coaching!)

If you think I can help you to conduct your market research and inform your (growth/ commercial/ content) strategy then please don't hesitate to reach out!

I look forward to working with you!
