With a proven track record as a Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), SaaS growth consultant, and investor, I specialize in helping SaaS companies achieve scalable, predictable revenue growth through enterprise sales strategies.

Having served as CEO, COO, and CRO across global tech and consulting sectors—including cybersecurity, telecommunications, and retail—I bring a unique blend of leadership experience and operational expertise. I leverage data-driven insights, advanced CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot), and tailored sales strategies to shorten sales cycles, increase win rates, and unlock new revenue opportunities.

My passion lies in partnering with SaaS companies to:

Refine and scale go-to-market strategies for enterprise sales.
Penetrate new markets and close complex, high-value B2B deals.
Empower sales teams through hands-on coaching, real-time feedback, and custom workshops.

Collaboration is at the heart of my approach. I build cohesive, high-performing teams by fostering a culture of continuous learning, open communication, and mutual respect. Through my fractional leadership and targeted coaching, I enable companies to exceed revenue targets, secure long-term client relationships, and achieve sustainable growth.

Whether you’re a SaaS startup looking to scale or an established firm aiming to break into new territories, I can help you unlock your next phase of growth. Let’s connect and explore how I can support your success.

Martin Backes - Freelancer

I have been working on Freelance projects since the beginning of 2008 and gained immense experience consulting and designing for brands, mobile platforms and websites, automotive in-car entertainment and infotainment systems, music soft- and hardware, interfaces for museums, financial services, interactive/non-interactive installations, and art installations.

My passion for design spans all known (and some unknown) forms of media, for major companies such as Google/YouTube, PCH Innovations, WHITEvoid, Linde, MINI, BMW, Metadesign, and Mendelssohn Museum. In addition, I have worked in-house for clients such as VW, Native Instruments, Saatchi & Saatchi Pro, and Blinkist.

Besides my work as a designer, creative director, design sprint facilitator, and consultant, I'm an artist playing with the ambiguity between the physical world and the digital realm, reflecting the blurred boundaries between analog and digital, reality and simulation, stability, and disruption, figure, and abstraction. My cross-border and experimental field of activity in the intermediate area of art, science, technology, and culture ranges from augmented reality (AR) and multimedia sound works to theatre dance pieces and installations, as well as sculptural and computer/video works.
