Jonas Artmeier, sales advisor and interim VP Sales in Munich

Jonas Artmeier · Founder of Artmeier Advisory15+ years selling software to enterprises. Now on both sides of the table.

I am Jonas Artmeier. For more than 15 years I have sold software to large companies and led the teams that do it. From 2020 to 2026 I helped build Prewave, from Seed stage to Series B+: first the sales organisation, then the advisory practice that made sure customers got the value they paid for. Today I work with both sides of that table, from Munich.

Building the sales engine.

I joined at Seed stage. ARR tripled four years in a row, from 2020 to 2024, on the way towards €100M. I built the sales org from the first sellers to more than 40 people in five teams, and we won Siemens, Volkswagen, BMW and Amazon.

I prepared board decks, ran the forecast and supported investor due diligence. From July to December 2023 I led sales and advisory at the same time, as VP Sales and VP Advisory.

Making the software pay back.

I built a second business line from zero: an advisory practice that helped enterprise customers get the value out of the platform. It grew to more than 50 enterprise clients.

That is where I saw both sides. Startups need a sales team that enterprise buyers trust. Enterprises need the value they were promised. Today I help with both.

Before Prewave

Enterprise software sales at global companies.

  • Ingram Micro
  • IBM
  • A1 Digital
  • Oracle

I also trained as a full-stack developer, so I can follow the product conversation. And I give guest lectures on B2B go-to-market and building sales teams.

Working on both sides

Three rules I do not bend.

I work for startups that sell supply chain software and for enterprises that buy it. These rules keep that clean.

  • Never both sides of one deal. I don't advise a vendor and its customer on the same relationship.
  • Tool-independent. No commissions or referral fees from vendors.
  • No direct competitors in parallel in the same segment.
