Hanan Khashan / Growth & Commercial Strategy

Growth shouldn’t stop at marketing.

I help businesses connect growth strategy, marketing, CRM, customer journeys and commercial operations to revenue — building growth systems that are more structured, measurable and scalable.

02 / The problem

Good marketing creates demand.
But what happens next?

The biggest growth leaks often happen after the lead arrives.

  1. MarketingUnclear attribution
  2. Calls / WhatsApp / Social / FormsDisconnected conversations
  3. CRMWeak follow-up and fragmented data
  4. Commercial OperationsManual handoffs and unclear ownership
  5. Customer ExperienceInconsistent journeys
  6. RevenueLimited visibility into what actually drives growth

Fragmented systems create friction.

Connected systems create commercial visibility.

I don’t optimise one channel in isolation. I look at the commercial system around growth — and where the connections are breaking.

Diagnose → Design → Build → Scale

Explore How I Work

  1. 01 / Diagnose

    Understand the business, economics, customer journey, data, teams and existing systems — before prescribing solutions.

  2. 02 / Design

    Define the commercial priorities, journey, operating model, infrastructure and measurement required to move forward.

  3. 03 / Build

    Translate strategy into working systems, processes, CRM, measurement and execution.

  4. 04 / Scale

    Use evidence to improve performance, strengthen capabilities and turn what works into something repeatable.

I lead the strategic work alongside your leadership and internal teams, bringing in specialist technical expertise where the engagement requires it.

07 / Point of view

Your CRM isn’t the strategy.

Technology can enable growth. It can’t replace clear ownership, a well-designed customer journey, good commercial decisions or an operating model that connects them.

The system comes first. The technology should make it work better.

08 / About Hanan

Operator.
Strategist.
Advisor.

I’ve spent my career inside growth — building teams, fixing fragmented journeys, connecting marketing to commercial performance, and turning ambitious growth targets into systems that teams can actually operate.

My experience spans growth leadership, commercial strategy, CRM and customer journeys, marketing infrastructure and business transformation across MENA.

Today, I bring that operator perspective into advisory engagements — working with leadership teams on the problems that sit between strategy and execution, marketing and revenue, technology and the customer experience.
