Who is Jochem?
I’ve been working as an independent marketing & business development adviser since 2013.
Mainly for professional services firms.
Before that, I was a marketer in the theater world, a project manager for online agencies, and a social business consultant at Deloitte.
In my free time, I like working on DIY projects, going to the gym, and – recently – the padel court.
I enjoy meaningful conversations with friends, traveling the globe, good food, and outings with my wife and our 2 daughters.
My core values
Dedication
When we work together, I always give my 100%.
Momentum
I set people in motion by making things easy to understand, practically applicable, and fun.
Impact
Actual business results and a lasting impact for your organization are always my aim.
Connection
I’m all about cultivating real relationships and trust.
My mission: better marketing
for professional services firms
Better marketing and business development for professional services firms, that is my mission.
Because, for many professional services firms marketing can and should* be better.
Especially if they want to become (or remain) the professional services firm people want to work with and for.
Curious how I can help you overcome your growth and positioning challenges?
* A Harvard featured study by DCM Insights shows professional services firms experience a sharp decline in client loyalty.
