With 25 year working experience in (leading) roles in sales, business development and a background in the Software, Telco, CRM, Events and Media industry, I experience the convergence of these markets more and more. This is, among other things, due to the excellent and competitive infrastructure in The Netherlands. This development opens business opportunities in existing and emerging markets, and makes the business ideas, mostly derived from energetic brainstorm sessions with your management team, feasible. Because there are so many chances and opportunities, I like to accept the challenge together with your company in achieving our defined, shared goals. Therefore I started NewBizz B.V. Your company, institution, organization, (sports-) league, union and others can create a loyal fanbase via business development and creative online media-solutions!!
Why fans? In addition to my administrative experience, at my beloved pro soccer club N.E.C. Nijmegen, I know that fans are passionate and loyal, but fans can also be critical and very emotionally involved. Being in touch with your fans brings you very important (marketing) value. Get the insights on your performance! Fans can be rewarded with attention, interesting benefits and the fact that they feel that their input matters! Fans tell you what to do, in order to prevent them from leaving you as a customer, there where regular customers never show up again after a disappointing experience….
Creating more value from an existing business environment or discovering new markets, directly leads to business value for you and your fans! NewBizz jointly builds the business case, explores the options, maps potential partners, brings parties together and translates this to feasible ideas and execution. The underlying goal is always to create fans, by enriching the knowledge of your (potential) customers. With the current and future market parties and by using the latest technology, NewBizz creates a potential better defense system against difficult economic times and crises, through creating alternative business models.
Bridging difficult times and setting your goals for growth during these times, is the big challenge. Only achieving growth in sales, mostly boils down to restructuring your company or more efficient sales processes. Real business development, according to NewBizz, results in realizing sustainable growth via new solutions and/or smart product/market combinations.
Do you recognize the many days you and your MT have spent in your agenda regarding the need for growth? A lot of energy and excitement…. What did it bring you next to that? Let’s make a “game plan” together, including execution, in order to get your “venue” filled with fans, real fans…..
What time is it? Game time……

What we do
The plan of action, the business plan: the Gameplan!
In my 25 year career I’ve played and/or coached many “games”. During all these “games” for me there always was one most important basic rule: When you forget to prepare, you prepare to be forgotten! The success of almost very game can mostly be measured by the preparation: the Gameplan.
In order to design a good Gameplan, it is necessary to come to a good definition of the challenge and scope of the expectations. Together we prove the potential feasibility. Examples like: where do we find new, potential customers? How do we get to know valuable information about them? What markets are we going to enter and when and how are we going to do that? How do we see our company in the 2.0 or 3.0 version? What (media-) technology do we deploy to achieve the goals?
Together we come to the description of the challenge. After that NewBizz designs the Gameplan as the strategic foundation to face the challenges and advise on the strategy. If desired NewBizz helps with the execution.
The Gameplan is as extensive as the game decides it to be or as we describe it together. Is it a sparring match or a grand finale. From one-off campaign actions or the search for appropriate sponsors to strategy innovation in the area of media, marketing, online and sales; a Gameplan can comprise a lot of different strategies. As long as it is clear what responsibilities the players have based on commitment and mutual agreement… In the NewBizz portfolio, you will find examples of games I’ve been involved in and during the time you will find the “games” I’ve played for NewBizz.
Does your organization have a need for a fresh outside-in view regarding or via: pragmatic brainstorm-sessions on MT level, quick scans, partnering challenges, business development, fan engagement, business models or in a nutshell: does your organization have a need for creativity and execution? NewBizz is ready to play. Whatever game we are going to play, NewBizz develops together with you the Gameplan and the road to success in your league.

What time is it? Game-time….

Team
With a more than 25 year career at various types of organizations, Leonard has gained a lot of useful experiences.During the 9 years at KPN he experienced the opening up of the telco market for competitors and the rise of internet and mobile data. In various sales roles he was busy with developing his customers within KPN.
After 1 year at at NOB Cross Media he was hunted by Microsoft to join and become the sales director for Microsoft’s top 3 account: KPN. In a matrix company structure, he witnessed Microsoft transforming from a product oriented company to a services seller within 5 years. After a few footsteps in entrepreneurship he could not resist the challenge BrightONE (now CRM partners) gave him and so he learned a lot about digital marketing. When Ericsson offered him a way back in media the temptation was to big to resist. At Ericsson Broadcast & Media services , later on Red Bee Media, he worked in a very competitive market and fought for the deals in the Sports-, Entertainment- and broadcast industry.
Looking at today’s market the convergence of Telecom, Media, Software and CRM services is driven by internet, 5G and IoT. Therefore new opportunities come to the surface that will drive innovation. NewBiz has the enthusiasm, the business network and the experience, next to a strong focus on innovation.
The power of NewBizz contains the creativity in order to meet the goals with a pragmatic approach and feasible solutions. When necessary with the right partners and fed by the right deployment of media technology, challenges can be solved in a way where the benefit is to learn more about your (potential) customers.
Customer data will be the most valuable asset of organizations!!
