About Daniel

🚀 From AI Hype to Business Impact – Finally Use AI to Add Value! 🚀

Many companies know they need to use AI, but not how or where specifically. I help you transform AI from a buzzword into operational value creation. My approach: AI First.

As a Digital Transformation & Innovation Consultant with over 15 years of experience (ex-SaaS founder, Executive MBA), I am not a theoretical consultant, but an implementation partner. I bridge the gap between strategic top management and operational process automation.

MY OFFER:

1. AI Strategy & Consulting (The Strategic Layer)
I will guide you on the path to becoming an "AI First Company".

*** AI Audit: Analysis of your processes, data, and system landscape to identify high-impact use cases.

*** Roadmap: Development of a clear implementation strategy, including prioritization and ROI forecasts.

*** Team Enablement: Empowering your employees through workshops and training to use AI safely and efficiently.


2. Process Automation & Implementation (The Execution Layer)
Strategy without implementation is worthless. I build the solutions for you.

*** Workflow Automation with n8n: I connect your tools (CRM, ERP, Email, AI) to fully automate manual processes.

*** MVP Development: Rapid prototyping and testing of AI solutions in live operation.

*** Make-or-Buy: Neutral benchmarking of tools and partners for the best technical solution.


WHY ME?

*** Entrepreneurial Mindset: As the founder of an AI-powered SaaS platform (ShopVibes), I know how to build scalable products and achieve market success.

*** Corporate Experience: Through roles at HolidayCheck and UniCredit, I understand the structures and requirements in corporate environments.

*** Technology & Business: I speak the language of management (KPIs, ROI) as well as developers (API, Webhooks, JSON).

    Building a Virtual SDR Team (AI Agents)

    Challenge: The client had a first-class product but a manual and inconsistent sales process. Since the Head of Business Development could only dedicate about one day a week to acquisition (bottleneck), the lead volume was only around 20 leads per week. Scalability and time for in-depth research were lacking.

    Solution: Development and implementation of a "Virtual SDR Team" consisting of four specialized AI agents that autonomously manage the entire outbound process:

    *** The Hunter: Identifies companies based on complex, strategic triggers (e.g., ESG goals, new onboarding programs) rather than just size/industry.

    *** The Miner: Finds the exact decision-makers (buying center) and enriches contact data.

    *** The Crafter: Creates hyper-personalized message drafts (email & LinkedIn) based on the target person's recent company news and activities.

    *** The Pilot: Directly transfers the finished drafts and deal information into the CRM (Pipedrive) for final human approval.


    Result & Impact:

    *** Revenue Leverage: Built over €75,000 in new pipeline volume per month.

    *** Scaling: Increased lead frequency from 20 to 100 qualified leads per week.

    *** Efficiency: Automated 60% of research and writing tasks; the human team can focus on strategic conversations and closing deals.

    *** ROI: Project break-even in less than 6 months.
