Senior Channel Manager

B2B Berlin

WHAT WE DO:
We bring together a community of the most disruptive B2B tech companies and collaborators in Berlin. We provide them a space to show off the most exciting products and startups in the business, and a network where like-minded people and business can connect and learn from each other in order to accelerate the growth of the entire industry.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Up until now Berlin has been mostly a B2C city; all the unicorns have been consumer oriented companies like Rocket, Ableton, and Soundcloud. But that will change. B2B will take off like it did in Silicon Valley; it’s only a matter of time before Berlin sees it’s own Oracle or Salesforce, but it won’t happen unless we build an environment capable of creating one. That’s exactly what we’re making with B2B Berlin.

MY STORY:
I spent a long time working in tech events in New York; a city with a truly developed B2B tech industry and community. I moved to Berlin only to discover that while there is a fledgling industry, there was no community for enterprise-oriented startups. And because it turns out you really can’t have one without the other, my co-organizers and I sought to finally create the community.

WHO I AM:
I’m the loud American guy who goes to parties and somehow knows and introduces everyone. It just so happens that this has turned out to be incredibly useful when it comes to business community development.

SPECIALTIES:
startup business development | community networking | event management | public speaking

Head of Channel, EMEA: SAP Signavio

WHAT I DO:
I design partner programs that can be scaled and executed repeatedly across global teams with diverse Partners in disperse regions. That means focusing on creating the right incentives and right enablement to help scale and ramp-up in-house teams as well as enabling strategic partners as effectively as possible. Whether they boutique consultants, GSIs, or the Big 4 I ensure they understand how to effectively work to grow their own business with Signavio.

SPECIALTIES:

Partner Program Specialist

Spryker

WHAT WE DO:
We enable system integrators to acquire more business by building coordinated Go-to-market strategies and leveraging best-in-class technology to win projects that would otherwise be resource-prohibitive to tackle

WHY IT MATTERS:
Systems Integrations is becoming increasing more commoditized and it's becoming harder than ever to stay competitive in finding new business while avoiding a race to the bottom line. I find new partners and work with them to use new technologies which enable quicker integrations, larger sales, increased margins, and greater employee satisfaction.

MY STORY:
I've spent years building strategic partnerships with Systems Integrators across Europe by taking the time to truly understand their business, their employees, and maximizing their synergy with new technological solutions.

WHO I AM:
I’m the guy you go to to ensure you have the tools and people ready to conquer new markets and larger customers than ever before

SPECIALTIES:
international growth | strategic alliances | business planning | sales and technical enablement

International Channel Manager

Perdoo - Enterprise Goal Management

WHAT WE DO: 
Perdoo makes your organisation predictably more successful. We allow your full workforce to manage, track and align their Objectives & Key Results, so your organisation is ready to run at Google speed.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Companies with large departments have a serious lack of transparency into how their teams are tackling projects on an individual level, slowing down the rate of progress for the company as a whole. We make it easy for companies to increase transparency and alignment to accelerate the speed of project management, implementing feedback, and discovering best practices.

WHO I AM:
I’m the kid who spent too much time with Legos all grown up; I’ve got a passion for taking apart existing systems and using the latest equipment to rebuild them into something stronger, faster, more profitable, and a whole lot more pleasing to use. I want to help equip companies with the tools they need to be able to recognize and implement their own cutting edge solutions.

SPECIALTIES:
OKR Management | feedback implementation | project management | Enterprise goal management | Business Strategy

Director of Sales

Minodes - A Telefónica NEXT Company

WHAT WE DO:
We measure in-store customer patterns and online consumer behavior, which helps retailers better target their programs and stores to their customers as well as retargeting those customers across more channels than ever before.

WHY IT MATTERS:
There’s no Google AdWords for physical stores. Retailers lose millions of dollars each year because they can’t effectively plan how to market their programs, design their omnichannel platforms, and accrete customers onto those channels. We not only make it possible, we make it easy.

MY STORY:
I’ve spent time working closely with McKinsey consultants and brands like Ecco, XXXL, and Hilti who are struggling to achieve and maintain revenues with millennial consumers. I’ve been helping them figure out who their customers are, what they want, and the most effective ways to reach out to them. My mission is to help bring physical retail into the 21st century and enable profitable and desirable shopping experiences.

WHO I AM:
I’m the kid who spent too much time with Legos all grown up; I’ve got a passion for taking apart existing systems and using the latest equipment to rebuild them into something stronger, faster, more profitable, and a whole lot more pleasing to use.

SPECIALTIES:
omnichannel customer accretion | online and offline advertisement retargeting | store design and staffing optimization | eCommerce development

Lead International Sales Manager

Six Flags

I worked on joint promotions between Six Flags and several major name brands to produce in-park advertisements and events.

Corporate Alliances

WHAT I DO:
➢ I help scale-ups with established direct sales funnels build new indirect customer acquisition channels that drive incremental pipeline, secure bigger deals, drive down customer acquisition cost, and increase customer-life-time-value

HOW I DO IT:
➢ I build go-to-market ecosystems around large ISVs and GSIs that are already driving customers' vendor selection, procurement, and service delivery. By tapping into my personal network from managing previous alliances and experience through multiple M&As with these companies, I build partnerships with them where they are commercially incentivized to push your products onto their existing customers.

BOTTOM LINE:
I build ecosystem-led growth engines; commercial relationships with the world's largest providers that will make it a no-brainer for customers to procure your solutions as part of their ongoing digital transformations, and so deeply integrated into them that churning becomes near-impossible.

WHAT YOU CAN DO NEXT:
Are you at the stage of growth where your company has validated that partnerships could make sense, but don't know how to launch them with the big players? Send me a message and we'll see if I can help you get them off the ground.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE:
International Growth | Strategic Alliances | Channel Management | Sales Enablement

Partner Manager

At the SAP.iO Foundry in Munich i was responsible for program management, communication and execution. I guided startups into the world of SAP and helped them finding the sweet spot for their solution within the SAP ecosystem.

Internship - SAP.iO Foundry Munich

While being part of IBSO my main task was backend development. I used the most common frameworks for this task (mainly Spring, Spring-Boot). I also had the chance to collect experience in frontend development while creating a voice control. Because all the projects were cloud based I gained a lot of experience in cloud development.

Working student at IBSO

Universität des Saarlandes

At the Center for Bioinformatics at University of Saarland I helped Prof. Keller and his team analysing data to gain more insights into the relation between participant's fitness levels and their gene regulation caused by microRNAs.

Research Assistant

Software Developer ⚙️ 👉 Startup Enthusiast 🚀 👉 Partner Manager 🤝 👉 Solutions Consultant ⚖️

Studying bioinformatics and working as a developer at SAP sharpened my skills to not only solve IT-related problems but helped identifying the right questions to ask. Always trying to find the best solution lead my way into the world of startups. 

After working on a solution for the public education system for more than one year, I choose to go to Munich, supporting the SAP.iO Foundry. Working hand in hand with different startups, their founders and teams, made me realise one thing: This is exactly where I want to be. 

After meeting the parcelLab team at the Foundry in Munich, I was absolutely fascinated by the outstanding product and the company culture. I moved from corporate to startup, and after working as Partner Manager for more than two years, building and managing strategic partnerships, I transitioned into Solutions Consulting . Et voilá, here I am, supporting brands and retailers, building outstanding customer experiences post sales, understanding their business' needs, ambitions and pain points.
