MeetTheBoss.tv

At MeetTheBossTV our business model is to connect our solution provider customers with targeted and qualified buyers who have a specific problem or need in their product space. 

We achieve this through our industry-leading virtual roundtables, providing the ideal platform for business conversations with C-level decision makers from some of the world's best known brands across any vertical. In addition, we elevate these conversations via our follow up service, turning direct one-on-one conversations into genuine sales opportunities.

VP EMEA

My role is to listen to our clients, ensure that they receive an excellent experience and support them through their journey with GDS International.

My role is to go beyond what is realistically expected. It is about surprising, and often delighting our customers, turning them into enthusiastic referral sources and lifelong clients. Our clients choose GDS International, not only because we achieve fantastic results for our customers but also because the value we bring goes far beyond just our products.

Gaining all of our customers feedback, understanding their business and personal objectives, their current and future strategies and moving the relationship forward is my main focus. This will ensure that we are constantly evolving, driving results for our clients, improving our products and exceeding our clients expectations.

I believe, if we do not engage with our clients in a real, personal way, then we are just another events company.

VP Client Engagement

According to sales guru Anthony Parinello, 'Selling to VITO - VERY IMPORTANT TOP OFFICER' or lack thereof is the major reason most deals fail to close.

Statistically proven and accepted across every major industry, getting in front of top level decision makers is an essential component of any high value engagement - yet this is the NUMBER ONE area where every sales organization struggles.

This is where we can help.

At GDS, we enable business leaders to gain valuable face-time with 'hard to reach' C-level decision makers, helping them shorten sales cycles, reduce cost per sale and maximize exposure to their target audience.

Whether it's technology, infrastructure or marketing, if you need to engage with the top of the pyramid, we have a solution.

Our industry leading summits, create a unique environment for buyers to meet sellers, discuss challenges and find solutions that help their companies run better, faster, cheaper and more efficiently.

I look forward to hearing from you to understand your challenges and figuring out the best solution to meet your business needs. Email me at paul.clark@gdsinternational.com or feel free to add me on Linkedin.
