Hi commercetools Community! 

 

Happy to see so many people eager to share and learn from each other. 

 

I work as a sales executive in the Norwegian market for commerce related businesses. I work with all of Avensia´s offering, including PIM/MDM, CRM/Loyalty, Strategy/advisory and UX, and by doing so we get in touch with many different prospects and clients and i would say i have a wide knowledge and is a generalist.

I work for a commerce expert company called Avensia, which is a Swedish based company, but i belong to the Norwegian office. We deliver services and products to companies determined to be winners in modern commerce.

We have worked with commercetools since 2019 and have delivered 12+ MACH based commerce projects with partners like Contentful, Voyado, Inriver, Syndigo, Bluestone, Occtoo, Fluent, Inretrn and many more. 

Please check out Haglöfs.com, Nordicnest.com, Outnorth.com, Fjellsport.no, Eurosko.com, chilli.se to name a few. 

Avensia was early in developing an accelerator approach for commerce projects and have a unique framework called Avensia Excite which all of our commerce projects are delivered on. Its not only a accelerator for kicking off projects and reducing risk, but its a full blown product delivering great commerce experience and extreme performance and stability to our customers. It is mainly focused around B2C at the moment, but we are working on building out our B2B offering with some new clients which we have onboarded. 

Avensia is all about building top commerce experiences and by working together with commercetools we really excel in doing this for our customers. 

Love to share thoughts, know-how and learn form the community.

Welcome to the Community Tania! 🤗 Glad you’ve joined us, we are here if you have any questions and of course, we’d love to learn from you as well. 

Montana! that sounds amazing, do you enjoy hiking/trekking? Seems like the perfect place to it. 

 


Hello everyone! 

I am Stefan Vermeulen and work as an independent digital commerce consultant / project manager for a range of companies mainly in Belgium. Typically I help companies search for a new solution and I guide replatforming projects. I come across many systems, including commercetools.

I think my strength is in finding the true requirements within companies, helping them with a commercial angle and finally getting the job done implementing it. I speak marketing, sales and tech. 

I am Dutch (but living in Belgium), have a 10-years-old-son and our family also includes a 24- and 29-years-old.. (I did not produce these :-D) and a granddaughter of 3. I love to sport.. but currently I’m a bit a laggard in that field.

Ciao,

Stefan


@Stefan Vermeulen 🤗 welcome to the commercetools Community! and Happy Father’s Day, hope you had a great one (a bit late, but it’s the thought that counts, right?). 

I am so happy someone with so much knowledge has joined us! I’d love to read your input in this post: 

I know other members who have just recently starting to use commercetools would it appreciate as well!


Hi everyone,
 
I'm a Community Manager, you may see me pop by from time-to-time to support @Lily.
 
I've been a CM for around 10 years and have seen the impact we can have when we share knowledge and experiences to support each other and drive change.
 
Outside of work, I'm a dad to an 11 year old boy. We love building Lego sets together and going on holidays when we can. I'm also a big football (soccer) fan - Manchester United is my team - and cooking for the family.
 
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone a little and learning more about your roles.
 
Oh, a fandom fact from me... male seahorses 'give birth'.

Hello -  I am Sara Horrocks with PayPal and Braintree 

  • Hobbies and interests? Corgis, Puzzles, Harry Potter and Disney World 

I love holidays to Orlando!

I hope I can get back out there once Epic Universe has opened and the rumoured Central America area at Animal Kingdom looks fantastic too.

If you ever want to nerd out about WDW or HP⚡️ I’m your guy.


Welcome to the Community @Mark 😊 thanks for taking care of everything while I’m gone. 🤓 


Hello everyone!

I’m Alex and I work at foryouandyourcustomers out of the Amsterdam cell in The Netherlands. Here I apply my skills as a backend software developer to our commerce solutions.

At the moment I am involved in my 3rd commercetools project, this time with the added functionality of the Frontend part. 

I joined this community so that I can see how others are experiencing working with commercetools as a platform as well as having another channel to ask questions or maybe discover interesting bits of information. I would also be thrilled if, with time, I make a connection or two :)

One interesting factoid about myself is that I used to work on Mainframes and one even more obscure platform which is OpenVMS. 

 

Looking forward to our interactions!


Best regards,
Alex


Once more, welcome to the Community Alex! 😊 And thanks for sharing a bit about yourself.
