I personally know Stephan for almost 7 years now and it is a real pleasure working with him. We started with his former position at softdistribution till to our todays Senior Lead Etail at Haufe Group (Haufe-Lexware). Stephan helped us to increase our business significantly. His business knowledge combined with the personal attitude and empathy makes him to kind of special character, very positive, dynamic and powerfull professional. Furthermore he identifys possible revenues and/or problems in the Economy workaround. In example, we build together a hybrid solution regarding physical Software products on Amazon Marketplace to be more independet and changed structures on our webstore after his strategy input on possible optimzations of our website and CX-structures. I like the way he works as he is always willing to go that extra mile to enhance boths businesses. I am looking forward to working with him the next couple of years and can recommend him as highly valuable for any organisation within the IT branch.

I had the pleasure of working with Stephan for 4 years and can confidently say that he is one of the most competent and reliable B2B partnermanager I`ve ever worked with. Stephan has the ability to quickly and expertly implement ideas and projects in the IT business. His work ethic is unparalleled, and he is always willing to take on new challenges. I have found him to be an extremely dependable and professional partnermanager, and I am certain that he always strives to provide the best for his company and clients. I wish Stephan continued success in his career, and I am confident that he is an indispensable part of the IT channel.
