Product Madness is a leading developer and publisher of social and mobile casino game. It has offices in SF, Vegas, Austin, London and Minsk. More than 1,500,000 people play a Product Madness game every day across all major mobile and social platforms. During my time as Managing Director I helped grow the company’s revenues 15 times in 3 years to a run-rate of just under $200mm with meaningful EBIT margins. The challenge was doing that while managing a staff of 170 people across five locations – SF, London, Vegas, Austin, Minsk (Belarus) and maintaining a great, fun and productive culture. In addition, we managed to successfully transitioned the company from 98% Facebook driven revenues to a mobile driven company when most of its revenues are generated from mobile platforms. The company's leading product - ‘Heart of Vegas™’ is the 7th top grossing game in Facebook, regularly #1 top grossing in Australia (iPhone, iPad and Google Play), regularly top 15 gross in US iPad, and top 30 grossing in the US on both iPhone and Google Play.
