Iva Vlasimsky — GTM Strategy & Product Marketing for Microsoft Partners

A Go-To-Market System Built for Microsoft Partner ISVs and MSPs
I work with small to mid-sized Microsoft partners that have the expertise and the customer results, but need a focused go-to-market motion that builds trust and generates pipeline.
Not a 12-month agency retainer. A structured engagement that helps you focus on your target, builds messaging that matters, and activates your leadership and sales team with a system that stays with you.

Clients & Friends





Struggling to get leads?
No Clear Differentiators
Without sharp positioning and a story built around how you solve problems differently, you look and sound like every other partner in your area of expertise.
Gen(AI)eric Messaging
AI-generated content and standard Partner Center materials don't build trust. Buyers scroll past what they've seen a hundred times before.
Spray-and-Pray Tactics
Without strategy, you'll only burn budget. Running campaigns before you've nailed your positioning is turning up the volume on a message no one wants to hear.
No Repeatable Pipeline System
Referrals don't scale and cold calling is exhausting and ineffective today. Instead of buying a lead list from broad databases, install a system that creates demand on its own terms.
Enter thought leadership content
Thought leadership is not 'yet another' marketing tactic or buzzword. It's a powerful content strategy that positions a person or brand as a trusted expert in a particular field or industry.
Think of it as the fuel that powers all your marketing and sales.

GTM System Tailored to Your Team
Our GTM System is a structured 120-day product marketing engagement, scoped to one product, service, sales motion, or leadership initiative. It can be customer or partner-focused.
Designed for smaller ISV and MSP teams whose business development and sales reps are tired of cold outreach that goes nowhere, and heavy dependancy on referrals.
Equips your team with:
-
Positioning foundation to work from
-
Sales enablement stack to go to market with
-
Content and thought leadership engine that builds trust and warms prospects
Marketing & Sales Enablement
Differentiation
Team Activation
FOCUS with sharp positioning, precise ICP definition, competitive landscape, and value propositions that resonate. Your sales team leaves with a named account list of 50 prospects to act on immediately.
BUILD the right assets in the right order. First the sales enablement: case study, objection-handling sheet, SDR call framework, outbound sequences, battlecards, core one-pager. Then the marketing layer: solution landing pages, a lead magnet with a nurture sequence, thought leadership assets.
ACTIVATE Two parallel motions. A Team on LinkedIn program for up to three leaders, with AI writing assistants, ghostwritten starter posts, and weekly coaching so your team owns the content engine after handoff. And a social trigger workflow that connects content engagement directly to SDR outreach.
Microsoft Partner of the Year Awards
Strategy & Writing Support

The Microsoft Partner of the Year Award is one of the most competitive recognition programs in the channel, and one of the highest-trust signals you can carry into a sales conversation.
Over the last decade, more than 35% of my clients became winners or finalists. A strong submission is not about listing achievements. It is about knowing how to tell the story that moves judges.
What is included: The right award category discovery, stakeholder interviews, research and project management, writing and editing, award entry design (if selected).

Hi, I'm Iva
With over 25 years in communications, from journalism to B2B content to product marketing, I spent the last decade inside the Microsoft partner ecosystem, working with ISVs, MSPs, CSPs, and SIs across Europe and North America.
I build go-to-market systems rooted in sharp positioning, buyer-centric messaging, and a GTM narrative that holds from your website to your sales calls to your LinkedIn profiles.
I speak at partner events on GTM, positioning, LinkedIn for teams, and responsible AI in content. I co-lead the People, Culture and Performance committee at IAMCP. I am a marketing advisor at The WIT Network.

Klaus Fander
CEO @ acadon AG
Before working with Iva, my LinkedIn presence was rare, with little visibility among potential timber industry clients. Her thought leadership strategy transformed my Microsoft technology and leadership expertise into compelling content across LinkedIn, newsletters, and industry publications, and helped acadon AG rank on Google and AI search.
