I'm Elia Romano, a B2B sales and GTM specialist based in Venice with a background at Amazon and as a startup founder. I build outbound sales engines from scratch, design scalable CRM processes, and turn greenfield operations into predictable revenue streams. I thrive on turning ambitious plans into repeatable, measurable results and love collaborating with cross-functional teams to accelerate growth. I've co-founded PropTech startups, led sales and partnerships, supported fundraising, and drove market traction—culminating in an exit in 2025. I also bring hands-on experience in logistics, international shipping, and high-volume operations. My approach blends strategic thinking with practical execution to deliver revenue, efficiency, and strong partner relationships.
