Steven Kok


Interim Commercial Director & Sales Transformation Specialist


With 25+ years of experience at the intersection of Sales Leadership and IT (Solera/Sofon/Infor), I bring structure and calm to chaos. Whether it’s building an international sales team or implementing a robust Go-to-Market strategy, I focus on double-digit growth and operational excellence.


My approach combines heavy-hitting commercial seniority with deep insight into Sales Strategy and Sales Automation (CPQ). This allows me to not only design a strategy but also build the ‘engine’ that delivers the results.

Sales Management

High-Performance Sales Leadership & Execution


Sales is the engine of your organization, but it requires precision tuning to deliver consistent results. With 25+ years of experience ranging from dynamic start-ups to complex multinational cloud providers, I don't just "manage" sales; I transform it. I help organizations move from ad-hoc selling to a structured, scalable, and predictable revenue machine.


My focus areas include:

  • Interim Sales Leadership: Hands-on management to bridge leadership gaps, ensuring stability and continued growth during transitions.
  • Team Professionalization: Transforming teams from reactive order-takers to proactive, consultative trusted advisors.
  • Sales Strategy Optimization: Redefining your Go-to-Market approach to shorten sales cycles and increase average deal size.
  • Recruitment & Evaluation: Assessing current talent gaps and hiring the right "hunters" and "farmers" to execute the strategy.
  • Performance Management: Implementing clear KPIs, forecast discipline, and accountability structures.
Is your sales engine sputtering? Let’s diagnose the issue and fix it. Contact me directly.


Marketing

Strategic Marketing & Demand Generation

A marketing plan is only as good as the pipeline it generates. I bridge the traditional gap between Sales and Marketing, ensuring that every marketing euro spent contributes to revenue goals. My approach is data-driven and focused on alignment: Marketing delivers the leads, and Sales closes them.


My focus areas include:

  • Interim Marketing Management: Leading and energizing marketing teams to focus on commercial deliverables.
  • Lead Generation Strategy: Designing international campaigns that attract your ideal customer profile (ICP) and convert them into qualified leads.
  • Sales & Marketing Alignment: Breaking down silos to ensure shared goals, definitions, and feedback loops between departments.
  • Campaign Management: Overseeing the execution of multi-channel campaigns (Email, Social, Events) that drive brand awareness and engagement.
  • ROI Optimization: Evaluating online and offline communication strategies to maximize impact and minimize waste.

Business Development

New Market Entry & Strategic Expansion

Business Development is about unlocking new revenue streams. Whether you are looking to enter a new country, launch a new product, or pivot your business model, I provide the roadmap and the execution power. I use proven methodologies to identify opportunities that others miss.


My focus areas include:

  • Market Analysis & Entry: conducting deep-dive SWOT analyses, competitor research, and trend forecasting to validate new market opportunities.
  • Product-Market Combinations: Innovation workshops using S.I.T. (Systematic Inventive Thinking) to create new value propositions for existing or new clients.
  • Partnership Strategy: Identifying, negotiating, and structuring distribution channels and strategic alliances to accelerate scale.
  • New Venture Planning: Developing robust business cases and GTM plans for new initiatives or start-ups.
