Volodymyr Krasnobrizhyi

B2B sales consultant for business owners. A practitioner of large deals, a methodologist and a psychologist.

Portrait of Volodymyr Krasnobrizhyi

In brief

I have worked in sales and consulting for more than twenty years. I started by selling ERP and CRM systems, led business development at Kvazar-Micro and De Novo, ran ERP Ukraine and uData.tech, and was responsible for technology consulting at Hewlett Packard Enterprise in Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Georgia.

Over that time I sold and supported complex B2B deals worth more than $6M: SAP implementations, IT projects for banks and the public sector, a project funded by the World Bank. In every one of them the decision was made not by one person but by a group with different interests.

That is why I went on to study psychology. A Master’s degree at Kyiv-Mohyla Academy and doctoral studies at the Kostiuk Institute of Psychology gave me the language and the tools for what I had seen for years in deals and teams: buying decisions, resistance to change and trust follow understandable patterns.

Today I bring three things together: a salesperson’s experience, a consultant’s methodology and a psychologist’s knowledge. I work with business owners who need manageable sales and a forecast they can trust.

Education, certificates and methodologies

How I work

Facts first

Conclusions rest on CRM data, deal reviews and interviews, not on impressions.

Direct and to the point

The owner gets the picture as it is, together with what to do about it.

Confidential

Client names, figures and the content of conversations stay inside the project.

Other projects

Alongside consulting I run the School of Transformation educational platform and the SIGNS 4 SENSE video and photo production studio.
