The General Manager of a prominent financial charting and data platform has recently decided to leave the organization after six years to establish a new initiative known as Merchant Seven (M7). This consulting firm is focused on aiding early-stage technology companies in accelerating their growth and improving outcomes.
In their role at the previous company, the individual served as the General Manager for Enterprise and North America, significantly enhancing the platform’s popularity, particularly within the Retail FX and CFD brokerage sectors. Before joining this renowned platform, they spent five years at a company specializing in social media for finance, where they held several positions, including Vice President of Revenue Strategy and Head of Business Development.
Alongside the GM, two key executives from the previous firm are also transitioning to M7. Milana Ruchkina, the former US Growth Director, will take on the role of Chief of Staff, while Stefan Cheplick, who was in charge of the Global Community and educational initiatives, is also joining the new venture.
The newly formed company aims to offer a fractional, high-impact team alongside operational systems designed to help technology businesses expedite their processes without the need for full-time executive hires. The decision to initiate this venture comes at a time when the early-stage ecosystem is rapidly evolving, and there is a significant demand for the right expertise at opportune moments.
M7 has already secured five clients and plans to grow its team further in the coming months to accommodate additional projects. The organization invites ambitious entrepreneurs seeking support to reach out.
The overarching mission of Merchant Seven is to facilitate accelerated outcomes for firms navigating the complexities of the technology landscape.
