Martin Doubravský
When I'm not busy contemplating ideas, solving problems, designing and managing products, communicating with stakeholders, CEOs on one side, designers and engineers on the other side, with customers in between, I design and build Webflow sites.
Throughout the years of working for clients from all around the globe, I found out an intersection where both my skills are the most helpful and where I enjoy myself the most: it's when I work with startups, especially startups from the U.S., and the infamous Y Combinator.
It brings me joy when I can help shape and spread a good word about a brand that's not only interesting, but also useful. (If it’s not useful, it better be entertaining.)
If it’s not useful or entertaining, the only bucket that’s left is useless. I've seen the dark side of the startup world — focusing too much on VC money, coming up with a solution even PRIOR having a real problem to solve, and burning money, and people, too.
That's where I come in: I help startups grow by focusing on shipping the right things, at the right time. And I will tell you when I see that something could be done better.
Usually, it's just me working on your product, shaping your unique story so it speaks to your audience. Sometimes though, I need help from way better experts than I am — for this purpose, I created a small studio, Avocado Experience.
Thanks to my base in Prague, Czechia, the heart of Europe, I was strategically born to overlap really any timezone. I have dozens of clients from the East & West Coasts of America, Canada, Europe, even down to South Africa and Australia. And I have never paid a single $ for any marketing, anywhere.
I’m a storyteller, creative strategist, Chief Mind Officer.
I love to wonder. Curious about ideas and quick to see connections and meanings, I inspire others with my visions of the future.
Fascinated by opportunities to explore, I have an inner core of values that guides my interactions and decisions. I enjoy being involved in work that contributes to my own and others’ growth and inner development - to have a purpose beyond the paycheck.
I’ve been helping clients, around the world, with their online and offline experience and their growth.
I have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve.
Creative and driven, I’m a born innovator and a problem solver, using my artistic talent to find new solutions to conventional problems.
A collaborative and curious non-conformist, I love cultivating original ideas, outside-the-box solutions, generating creative possibilities and seeing new, innovative ideas come to life.
As a strategic thinker with an entrepreneurial spirit, I’m agile and forward-thinking by nature, and enjoy using digital tools and emerging technologies to explore the complexities of human potential.
Passionate and empathetic, I care deeply about relationships and I commit to do what's right and focus on creating lasting value.
To warm people’s hearts, for example, we organize “Hug-A-Thons”. Together with my wife and partner, we gave hugs in romantic Paris, in mesmerizing Las Vegas, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Bali and with our friend, Erwin Benedict Valencia, also in Prague. The list keeps growing.
This is for fun, for now. We created a company called Hug Like You Mean It and have plans that goes way beyond.
Having long-range visions, I readily see the whole context alongside many possibilities for the future. I articulate a vision to provide a sense of purpose, persevere in the pursuit of my passion and remind the team of the values, inspiring others to achieve the seemingly impossible.
As an impactful and collaborative leader, I throw myself into projects and enjoy being involved directly and seeing projects through from beginning to end. I can act without a complete plan, having a strong drive to provide the highest-quality output, showing trust and supporting others in getting work done.
“I'm successful thanks to the visions I build on creative and innovative thinking, the ability to learn new things fast and the responsibility in everything I do.”
