Bio
Stefan Verhoeven
In my career in marketing and sales I have rarely come across a sales manager with the drive for results and passion for people as demonstrated by Robert. In Philips Consumer Electronics he managed our IT-portfolio in the Dutch business-to-business market, which means working with (international) end-users, system integrators, value-added resellers and distributors. Through his leadership and commitment, he was able to build strong relationships with our customers and deliver great results. As his colleague and manager it has been a true pleasure and privilege to work with Robert.

Robert it was a pleasure working with you while you where in this role. We set goals and tasks to grow the business with the accounts I managed and one of the goals was to sell Peripheral products into ASDA. Which we achieved successfully.
