Over Sebastien

I help sales teams fall back in love with selling.

For 15+ years, I watched brilliant sales professionals get buried under admin tasks instead of doing what they do best: connecting with customers. That's when I discovered something powerful – sales teams thrive when you give them flow, focus, and the freedom to be human.
Today, I combine proven sales leadership with Kanban methodology and no-code automation to create what I call "Sales Flow." The result? Teams that spend 80% of their time with customers, not spreadsheets.

Here's what happens:

- Smart automation handles the busy work
- Team energy soars as collaboration flourishes
- Continuous improvement becomes second nature
- Revenue accelerates because reps focus on what they love, and customers feel it

I've generated €millions in revenue streams at Thomson Reuters and Clarivate, trained 1000+ professionals across Europe, and achieved 98%+ customer satisfaction rates. My secret? Focus on trust, treat work like a game – productive, joyful, and energizing – and experiment... constantly!
