Giacomo in a few words
Digital Product Manager specialized in scaling B2C and B2B2C products.
Here's my ground approach to Product Management:
"The Product Manager is the professional who identifies problems and focuses on the ones that are worth solving".
This means being able to do several things:
1. Identifying opportunities through research, talking to customers and internal stakeholders, benchmarking competitors, analyzing data.
2. Being able to estimate the impact and the complexity of solving a problem and prioritize the opportunity accordingly.
In order to do so, you want to reduce the risk of uncertainty by running test and experiments (A/b Test, Multivariate, Fake Doors, Surveys, Toggle Features) and keeping an incremental approach (MVP)
3. Being a servant leader in order to drive a coordinate a team of experts, on which you have no direct authority, towards the same common objectives.
4. Managing the expectations of your stakeholders

Senior Product Manager
I was in charge of identifying, prioritizing, and managing product initiatives for the organic acquisition of new users and the optimization of conversions on our most strategic pages for the SERP.
The metrics I aimed to move were:% Organic Traffic, Ranking on Result Page, Time on site, bounce rate and revenue generated.
I worked with a cross-functional team consisting of 4 developers (2BE, 2 FE), a Tech lead, 1 UX / UI Design, 1 Product Analyst and a QA Manager. The last two resources were shared with other teams.
One of the main initiatives I worked on consisted in going from this: https: //www.mydealz.de/gruppe/iphone-7 to this https://www.mydealz.de/gruppe/iphone-12, for a overall uplift of "incoming organic traffic" of 3pp and a reduction of the bounce rate up to 12pp
