Über Zsofia

I help companies roll out their digital value proposition across markets and turn market insight into execution – reaching target customers, building partnerships, and delivering winning launches that grow their business.

My background spans strategic business development and go-to-market in regulated financial services.
I incubated digital innovations, explored digital business opportunities "beyond banking", and built the open banking platform at Deutche Bank; led the German market entry and growth at CHERRISK, the digital spin-off of the Uniqa Insurance AG; I advised fintechs and digital banks, such as BforBank of the Credit Agricole Group, on their market expansion challenges.

    Business Development at the German market

    August 2025 - Dezember 2025 (5 Monate)
    Berlin, Deutschland
    In this role, I was responsible for improving growth through iterative improvement of BforBank's daily banking offering post- launch. My focus was on value messaging and scaling acquisition channels under strict efficiency targets.

    Achievements

    KPI optimization: Exceeded acquisition targets while reducing affiliate CAC, customer acquisition cost, below the French benchmark level.

    Strategic partnerships: Built and executed a partnership strategy with platforms, such as Check24.

    Scope of work & responsibilities

    Positioning & messaging: Improved market positioning and differentiation based on continuous competitor monitoring, offer performance, and customer insights.

    Storytelling & trust-building: Monitored customer feedback across channels and improved offer acceptance through improved translation of the French IBAN and specific savings product logic into clear customer benefits to build trust in the German market.

    Pricing strategy: Supported pricing decisions based on competitor benchmarks and the specific dynamics of the German market.

    Stakeholder management: Prepared executive-ready recommendations for management to support strategic and commercial decision-making.

    Distribution & channels: Removed GTM barriers by operationally managing the affiliate channel go-live and coordinating with networks and publishers.

    I built AI-supported workflows to make strategic business development work more efficient and of higher quality. I contributed strategic judgment grounded in my deep market understanding to turn AI-generated output into reliable, relevant, and decision-ready work.

    Berlin, Deutschland
    I helped BforBank position its brand, tailor its offering, and acquire new clients in Germany. I conducted market and customer research, competitive benchmarking, and prepared decision support for executives.

    I collaborated with marketing expert teams to adapt the offering to the German market and provided recommendations for the website redesign and promotional interest rates for the overnight savings product.

    I acted as interim manager of the affiliate channel, setting it up from the ground up before handing it over to the internal affiliate manager.

    I also led strategic partnership development, including partnership strategy, initiation, and closing. In cross-functional expert discussions, I represented German market needs to help ensure product-market fit.

    I built AI-supported workflows to make strategic business development work more efficient and of higher quality. My contribution was not only to use AI for speed, but to apply the strategic judgment needed to turn AI-generated output into reliable, relevant, and decision-ready work. I used AI to structure messy inputs, accelerate first drafts and broaden the range of hypotheses, while ensuring that final recommendations were grounded in market context, customer relevance, regulatory sensitivity and commercial priorities.

Mehrmonatiges Projekt

Zsofia has supported BforBank with our German market entry and has been key to help us define our go-to-market strategy for our digital daily banking offering. Her work on market background and competitor analysis, as well as translating the key insights into concrete, data-driven recommendations for the German strategy has been extremely helpful. Zsofia also led our partnerships development and affiliate strategy, working with networks and publishers. Her understanding of the German market was helpful in adapting our product offering and website components. What I particularly appreciated was Zsofia's ability to quickly fit in and be part of our team. And her knowledge of go-to-market strategies and her capacity to address both operational as well as strategic issues is clearly one of her strengths.
