About Navid

Most deals don't fail because of the product.

They fail because no one on the team knows how to structure the offer, handle objections, or go for the signature at the right time.

I step in as an external senior Business Developer — integrated into your organization for the duration of a mission, owning the complete BD cycle from first contact to signed contract.

What I do concretely:
— Identify and qualify the right decision-makers
— Structure offers based on buyer psychology
— Negotiate and close partnerships, distribution agreements, and strategic contracts
— Open new markets (Europe, Middle East, India)

Recent missions:
— Kotzilla (tech, developer tools): opened Middle East & India markets, generated 100+ qualified leads
— Vivify (luxury wellness): structured and closed UAE partnerships, 8 qualified partners in 3 months
— Lumene (Nordic beauty): mapped GCC distribution channels, initiated conversations with regional buyers

I work on long-term missions (3 to 6 months minimum) with 3 to 5 clients in parallel. No more.

Daily rate: €600-€800/day depending on complexity and mission duration.
