From Cold Calls to Digital Growth – The Journey of Sebastiaan Duijvestijn
Sebastiaan Duijvestijn began his sales journey on the front lines, long before digital marketing dominated the scene. In his early career, he honed his craft through old-fashioned cold calling and one-on-one sales, learning how to engage customers directly and build trust face-to-face. This hands-on start in physical sales taught Sebastiaan the value of perseverance and personal connection – skills that would become the bedrock of his later success.

As the world shifted online, Sebastiaan spotted an opportunity. In the early 2000s, he launched one of the first webshops in his market, marking his bold transition into e-commerce. He eagerly embraced the digital arena – mastering SEO to drive organic traffic, SEA (Search Engine Advertising) to capture quick visibility, and the rise of social media marketing to engage audiences in new ways. Sebastiaan didn’t just study these techniques; he applied them firsthand. He built and grew several online ventures from the ground up, experiencing the thrill of scaling an e-commerce business and even successfully exiting one. This hands-on experience building and selling online gave him a 360° understanding of what truly works in the digital marketplace.
