Monika Kisielewska

SEO & Content Manager

I joined Cognism’s marketing team in 2022, and since then, I’ve been creating in-depth product reviews and easy-to-understand educational guides for SaaS and B2B companies at different growth stages. 

I check facts and follow trends in the sales intelligence industry (read: I spend time on LinkedIn for “research purposes”). I gather information about prospecting and lead generation tools and strategies, making sure my content is packed with actionable advice. I also enjoy collaborating with the sales and product teams to engage the B2B audience. 

Before working for Cognism, I wrote about innovative solutions in e-commerce that help SMBs take their business to new heights. I have mentions from publications like PCmag or The Fintech Times.

Outside work, I take my dog for daily walks and catch up on my favourite podcasts.

I’d love to connect with like-minded marketers, so hit me up on LinkedIn!
