Virtual Solution Sales Manager delivering consultative B2B SaaS and fleet solutions across the DACH market.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Business Economist focused on European management with a professional background spanning over 20 years. Since 2022, I’ve specialized in B2B sales and fleet management solutions, currently serving as a Virtual Solution Sales Manager for Ford Pro Software at MSX International GmbH in the DACH market.
I manage the complete sales cycle from lead qualification to contract closing, running live demos, negotiations, and contract management with a strong emphasis on customer retention. I build and maintain reporting systems to drive continuous sales process improvement, while working virtually across borders in an international team environment.
Earlier roles strengthened my commercial execution and customer focus, including B2B outbound prospecting, upselling strategies, and proactive contract renewal to reduce churn. I also bring deep support and documentation experience—using CRM (Salesforce) to track activities, follow up efficiently, and ensure solution-oriented customer care.
