ABOUT

Built for analyst evaluations.

Gordon works with enterprise software, SaaS, and hardware companies in markets where analyst evaluations shape buyer perception. Magic Quadrants, MarketScapes, and the briefings that lead into them.

His approach connects product, marketing, and sales priorities into a unified narrative, then brings discipline to the way that narrative gets delivered to analysts. He's led AR programs at PTC, Schneider Electric, Dassault Systèmes, and ServiceMax, and has spent 25+ years across marketing, PR, and AR. Long enough to know which AR processes are worth keeping and which ones hold programs back.

What he brings is sharpness. The kind that makes analysts immediately recognize what makes a vendor different.

Gordon operates independently as GB Marketing & Communications and partners with KCG through FARNet.
