Solutions Sales Specialist

Speaking and presenting expert for tech professionals Trusted by more than 6000 at SAP, Salesforce & Google.

Selling ERP isn’t selling SaaS. So why are you marketing it like it is?

If you’ve ever sat through a sales call with an agency that promised “pipeline” but delivered crickets, you already know the problem.

Selling ERP is hard. Long cycles. Complex buying committees. Stakeholders who live in spreadsheets, not LinkedIn. Most sales & marketing agencies don’t get this—and it shows.

I do. 

Together with my team, we have worked across the SAP ecosystem—*including SAP themselves*—to help partner sellers and SAP sales teams build real pipeline in tough markets.

Since 2017, we’ve enabled over 6,000 tech professionals globally, built and executed 750+ outbound campaigns, and helped both SAP partners and internal teams sharpen their outbound, master discovery, and win complex deals.

Here’s how we help:

Demand generation - tailored to ERP buying behaviors (not SaaS fantasyland).
Sales enablement - grounded in buyer psychology, not recycled PowerPoint.
BDR/AE coaching - done-for-you outreach, so your team learns while they sell.
SAP-funded solutions, available through the Partner Benefits Catalog.

We know SAP’s culture. We know the SAP stack. We know what it takes to break into enterprise accounts—because we’ve done it over and over again.

Whether you're a partner or SAP seller—if you're struggling to build outbound muscle, book meetings, or qualify complex deals—Jabba.io is your unfair advantage.

Let’s help your team sell like humans again.
