Dr. Clemens Riedl
“I am passionate about sales and growth. Nothing is more fulfilling than helping to take organisations to the next level."
Approach
Clemens’s approach is to start with the customer and work backwards. Instead of applying a fixed concept or format he listens extensively to customer calls via audio files or joins the sales rep on their appointments and meetings. He uses AI based software to transcript and analyse calls on a scalable level. From the conversation between the sales agent and the customer he derives what is the structure of the most successful sales pitch in terms of conversion. He later teaches this structure and the best "do say" lines via role plays. He monitors the successful application of the new sales pitch via his AI based software and display the "do say" words in real time for the agent. This approach ensures classic sales coaching to be scalable for the first time.

Clemens has more than 3 years experience as a motivational speaker and international trainer. As a consultant and trainer, he coached senior positions and worked with diverse companies such as BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz, Allianz or Axel Springer on digital transformation.
