Yes, I am always exited and enthusiastic! Already active for more than 28 years in the POP-Industry, (co-)founding and (co-)managing 9 companies related to research, design and manufacturing of in-store and retail @ marketing tools I believe I have gathered some intelligence and knowledge which I would love to share with some of you. Of course after all these years in trade I realized I am NOT good at everything. Even worse, I really suck at some of the more general and operational tasks and this is certainly not where my ambition lays in future projects. I love setting and showing the way, create and support new challenges, inspire a team and their customers,… and I even think I am good at it! My specialties are International B-to-B Sales and Marketing with focus on : - Creating new markets for new and/or existing products/services - Developing new strong and comprehensive product- and brand stories - Change- in combination with people-management (people are the basis for every success) - Dealing with complex global and regional customers which include cultural diverse environments (Europe, North- and South-America, Asia,…) - Strong multi-platform (including social media) communication in different languages and settings. - … I am passionate about everything I do and this includes work! If you need an “outsiders” look & advice on your current business, if you are researching a new business and need someone to challenge you,… just give me a call and I am happy to have a look at your story and support where I can.

"Golf Beats Cancer" wants to support the Belgian golfcourses/clubs and Federations to keep the recreative golfer active and motivated and at the same time inform and raise money for the continuous fight against cancer. By creating a competitive and professional platform we want to challenge the amateur golfer to participate in this specific tournament at his/her home club. We are still looking for sponsors major-, in-kind-, media-, and other -sponsors who can make the tournaments a unforgettable experience for participants, the clubs and of course the charity (this year KOM OP TEGEN KANKER). Hope to hear from you soon!
With more than 25 years of experience in sales & marketing positions in the POP-, Marketing @ Retail, Promotional cooling-, consultancy-,... and other businesses I love to share my expertise with new and growing companies in these and other domains. Working with and for other people who have a clear vision, have a large strive for excellence and who love to share their experience is great fun. I love to support young and ambitious people in their professional development and I am proud that most of the youngsters I have coached or "bossed" are still in contact.

We started this company mainly to support ASTE Finland in their strive for International growth. Although the start was effective and prosperous, especially with the 'road shows' demonstrating all the new and inventive ASTE-products to new and potential customers, we had to stop all marketing-efforts due to the take-over of ASTE by DRU International. Finally and unfortunately the collaboration was stopped in september 2017 and the existence of the company was no longer sustainable.
