What I bring is the network side of things, and a decent sense of which partner actually gets your product in front of the right decision-maker instead of just adding another slide to somebody’s deck.

What Christian brings

  • Motivating, structuring and scaling successful sales organizations, for Software as a Service (SaaS) as well as in combination with managed services
  • A network of more than 1,000 channel partners in Germany
  • Direct access to security decision-makers
  • Channel strategy: which partner, when, and why
  • Sales enablement and sales training

Why it matters for vendors

Most market entries stall because the channel waits for demand and the vendor waits for the channel. Christian knows both sides: how to win the first customers directly, and which partners to bring in once there is demand to sell into.
