The Growens Voices series continues and takes us today inside the Product & Technology department of the MailUp<\/a> business unit, where we’ll get to know Alessandra, Product Manager<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A 2014 graduate from the Cattolica University in Milan, Alessandra has always lived and breathed digital<\/strong>. She started her career in the field of mobile apps, designing 360\u00b0 digital marketing campaigns. She joined MailUp in 2017 and today is a Product Manager.<\/p>\n

Alessandra, what is your role at Growens?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I am part of the MailUp Product & Technology team<\/strong>. Initially, I joined MailUp as a Product Marketing Specialist, supporting Product Managers in the activities of the development team with a focus on the launch of new platform features.<\/p>\n

This proximity to PMs made me realize that my path was that of Product Management. 4 years after my first day at Growens, thanks to the trust of my manager, I moved to be a full-time Product Manager<\/strong> within the Activation, Acquisition and Monetization squad.<\/p>\n

How did you get to where you are today? Tell us a bit about your path.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I started my professional career in Buongiorno SpA – a multinational company focused on the creation and distribution of multimedia content – in the Digital Marketing team, taking care of global launches of digital products<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As I liaised on a daily basis with development teams to design marketing initiatives, I started to realize that the discovery and design aspects of digital products<\/strong> were what really fueled my interest.<\/p>\n

In 2017 I joined MailUp to be a Product Marketer, thus merging these two souls: Marketing and Product<\/strong>. My goal was to create the best storytelling about the platform’s potential, and to support its adoption.<\/p>\n

What is your work all about?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It’s all about being always ready to question yourself. The constantly evolving context and the emerging needs of customers always offer us ideas for improvement and continuous challenges<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The coolest part? Receiving positive feedback and appreciation from our customers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What drew you to Growens?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The MailUp product. In my previous company, while working in the Global Marketing department, I often found myself creating and managing communication campaigns. When we started using the MailUp platform, I immediately understood the potential of the product and I decided that I wanted to be part of it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Today, I can say without a doubt that Growens’ added value lies in its people<\/strong>. Many professionals with a great desire to build and work together to achieve common goals.<\/p>\n

When did you realize what you wanted to be as a grown-up?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I think I’ve always known what I’d end up doing. Even as a little girl, I was attracted to technology<\/strong> and its power to improve people’s lives.<\/p>\n

After graduation, my path was already written: in fact, after a few months I started my career by launching globally an app for pre-school children.<\/p>\n

What are your hobbies?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I am a serial traveler<\/strong>. I love to find the best flight deals and just go! It doesn’t matter for how long, even a single day is enough.<\/p>\n

My goal? To taste as many typical dishes as possible.<\/p>\n
