Denver, Colorado, United States
I am an experienced founder of software companies where I have worked in various roles ranging from Product manager, CEO, CTO to Sales Director. I am specialized in taking a company to the next level, growing and building sustainable healthy software companies. I am a proponent of a user first approach when designing and creating new products. Data informed not just data driven. In 2001 I founded Servoy, a supplier of an agile development and deployment environment that enables companies to effortlessly move to SaaS (Software as a Service). Servoy helps ISVs and corporates that need to modernize their legacy and/or 4GL based applications to a modern Java platform with capabilities of running both locally, client/server and over the internet from a single codebase. Broad international experience with clients in over 30 countries across the globe. After fourteen years of running the company as CEO I relocated to the USA to help grow the sales organization into a scaleable and reproduce-able organization. Probably my most important role at the company was not only to come up with the product but over the years also lead product management to continuously improve the product. At Servoy we created one of the very first ways of running native and browser based business applications over the internet. Frequent speaker at SaaS University, EuroCloud, Nederland ICT about SaaS and Cloud Computing. Formerly: Entrepreneur, CTO, Application Developer, Database Administrator, and Project Manager in a wide variety of business applications. Interested in SaaS, client/server applications and ISV business models.

DutchBasecamp is fully geared towards helping tech startups and scale-ups to become internationally successful. As an international strategy coach, I help founders to create and validate their internationalization strategy. I have helped 13+ Dutch scale-ups with their international growth, including sales strategy, product-market fit and personal growth. For more information have a look at: www.dutchbasecamp.org/coaching. Or contact me directly for more information. If you are a Dutch based company most likely the NL government will pay for the coaching. Which is a smart move because with a small investment from the Dutch government you will have the chance to start growing revenue and then pay more taxes! ;-)
In my past 10 years as a SaaS co-founder of multiple companies I implemented Sandler as my sales methodology. The results were: more sales and better and more predictable way of growing revenue. I am now training SaaS companies to share my experiences and improve them step by step to master the sales process.
