Our team

Simon van Heerden

Founder & ceo

With over a decade of international sales and marketing experience across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, I have driven transformative growth across all companies I work with, one example of scaling one companies revenue by 20x within two years and expanding their footprint from a single province to multiple continents. Not only was this a success but the foundation of scalability was built in such a way that the business has seen exponential growth year-on-year with the foundation that was built.

My innovative approach and strategic mindset have not only rapidly boosted brand presence and customer acquisition by adding significant, high-profile logos, but also sustained profitability over the long term. Success should not only be seen by the immediate results, but the replicable ones that scale over a period of time.

I pride myself on building scalable foundations that set companies up for enduring success. My passion for innovation, combined with a deep commitment to empowering teams and fostering strategic partnerships, has enabled me to consistently deliver measurable results across small-to-medium companies.

My vision is to lead by example by integrating creativity, data-driven insights, and relentless determination. With this I aim to inspire change and achieve sustainable growth. I firmly believe that success is built on a foundation of strong values, collaborative leadership, and a commitment to both short-term wins and long-term excellence.

I look forward to partnering with your organisation and driving positive change with meaningful results.
