ABOUT KRISTA ROMAN
I’m a Senior Account Executive specializing in helping global retailers and brands get control of their product data and turn it into real revenue. Whether it\'s PIM, PXM, or untangling messy omnichannel workflows, I’m at my best when I’m helping teams simplify complexity and create experiences customers actually convert on.Over the last decade, I’ve built and grown new markets for European SaaS companies (Akeneo & Publitas), often as one of the first U.S. hires. I love the challenge of taking a product into a competitive market, building trust from scratch, and proving value quickly. Along the way I’ve closed $3M+ in ARR, consistently ranked in the top tier of performers, and partnered with enterprise organizations across retail, manufacturing, and distribution.What I’m known for- US market builder: I’ve helped multiple European-based SaaS companies expand stateside—from landing the first six-figure deals to creating repeatable playbooks, onboarding processes, and revenue operations that scale- PIM/PXM strategy: I guide brands through making product data a competitive advantage—improving time-to-market, data governance, workflow optimization, and overall product experience- High-velocity, relationship-led selling: I thrive in consultative, long-cycle deals where collaboration, clarity, and trust matter- Cross-functional leadership: From product teams to implementation partners, I’m comfortable rallying stakeholders and running complex, multi-threaded evaluations.At the end of the day, my job is simple: help organizations create better product experiences so they can sell more, launch faster, and make their customers’ lives easier.If you’re exploring how PIM/PXM can unlock growth—or you\'re building something new in the US market—I’d love to connect.P.S. I’ve traveled through 30+ countries, lived out of a suitcase for nearly two years, and I’ll never say no to a conversation about global business, remote work… or where to find the best ceviche in Peru.
