Testimonials
Not too long ago, in a very focused coaching session with Petra Wolkenstein Konsultori, we made plans to blaze new trails and look for innovative ways to take Wristbanditz to the glamorous, international places they belong (a.k.a. work on my weak point and substantially improve the sales process). The result is glamorous: an affiliate partnership collaboration with Cvent – the industry leader in event technology.
Very competent in providing tools and strategies. I always feel a genuine passion for the mission to empower startups. Thank you!
I appreciated the enthusiasm for our work and the context-related understanding that helped to look at our company from different angles.
Konsultori and Petra Wolkenstein are extremely professional. Her experience really helped us to get through the first funding round. We were thrilled that the documents and arguments which we produced in the preparations stage were so well received in our search for investors and during negotiations. I appreciated such a straightforward, hassle-free and honest partner who never forgot our goals and timeline. Without Konsultori, we’d never have managed to achieve everything within such a short space of time.
Our participants enjoyed her session on Negotiation In Action which imparted them with the confidence to get what they want. Petra shared her most important negotiation techniques, practical exercises as well as a confidence-building framework that the leaders can put into practice right away!
Petra Wolkenstein your lecture on negotiation was so insightful and engaging, thank you! You are a great storyteller!
I just wanted to thank you for your time yesterday, it was so insightful and valuable – our discussion has given me a lot to think about that I wouldn’t have considered. I will reach out if I have any further questions and of course, update you with how everything goes (fingers crossed!).
Above all, the collaboration is reliable. That’s exactly what you need at the beginning: reliable partners who are there for you regularly and provide constant support. It also feels trusting and not like “off-the-peg counselling”.
