The task 

The project included sales prepa­ra­ti­on, buyer search and approach as well as organi­sa­ti­on and modera­ti­on of the entire sales process. The chall­enge in this project was the locati­on Mecklen­burg-Western Pomera­niawhich did not appear attrac­ti­ve to many MBI candi­da­tes and the very good order situa­ti­on during the sales process, which put a lot of strain on the opera­ting owner.Nevert­hel­ess, the project inneral­ly from 15 months successful­ly comple­ted.  

What the client says about the project

Gerhard Zucker and Micha­el Zucker

The support by Mrs. Kalon­da von KERN was present during the whole Sales processit profes­sio­nal, absolut­e­ly relia­ble and charac­te­ri­sed by deep trust on both sidesWithout the lead accom­p­animent of Ms Kalon­da in this parti­cu­lar situa­ti­on I would not have had the time my compa­ny still so successful to lead and conti­nue to develop.  

From the compa­ny valua­ti­on to the purcha­se agree­ment, the process was purpo­seful and tailo­red to my perso­nal Needs adapt­ed. As a result, the sales process follo­wed a ‘red line’ and me a lot of time was thereby and energy saved. The coope­ra­ti­on was purpo­seful and has thereby not only great funbut also faster than Expects led to success.?
