"I have booked Stefan Lüdi for sales coaching several times over the last two years. Thanks to his acquisition strategies and his implementation concept, I was able to massively improve my new customer acquisition. I use his objection handling methods and the new sales pitch on a daily basis. Stefan Lüdi also knows how to motivate you to perform at your best."

"Stefan Lüdi has designed a pioneering eMarketing and acquisition project to acquire new customers in the kitchen segment. He succeeded in optimally linking the acquisition funnel created by Digital Marketing with the downstream offline acquisition processes. The successful integration of a dedicated call center process ensured a high level of processing quality for the leads generated. This enabled Stefan Lüdi to massively improve the sales performance of around 20 kitchen salespeople."
