Maarten Wienbelt
Maarten (1973) is one of our first contacts to help explore how we can support you as an entrepreneur to achieve your goals. He knows which subsidies may be available and after an exploratory meeting he can make a good estimate of how and with whom you can be optimally supported from the Brilliantwork network.
He likes to learn more about the background of your company, where you are now and what your short- and long-term goals are. Maarten also likes to think out of the box about commercial growth plans and tapping into new markets.
To this end, in addition to his sales experience gained in the corporate labour market, he also deploys his knowledge of turnaround management and process optimisation. Maarten is also experienced in company takeovers and management buy-ins.

Marco and Lizanne have taught me a lot in business over the past year. Marco challenged me to get clear on what my WHY was. My style is rather; 'a bit of everything' and non-committal and at the same time ambitious. Lizanne knew how to coach me finely on my complete package of challenges, questions and ambiguities that I did not know how to answer on my own. A great result with: 'a clear picture of what i4facilities stands for and is about', my Business Administration studies resumed towards the completion of my Master's thesis, a new website and above all 'my own clarity & a plan. That in fine conversations, at home, on location or online. Brilliant Work is really a smart club of service people with an open mind and good rapport. Highly recommended if you want to take the step further as an entrepreneur!

I'm an American entrepreneur based in the Netherlands running a startup called Carrus.io. When I setup the business in Amsterdam I was looking for coaching as a first-time founder (on growth/fundraising/positioning) and as a new resident to the country (navigating the local fundraising and sales environment). I was quite lucky to find Brilliant Work. I worked closely with my coach Lizanne for several months (still ongoing!) who has helped connect me to an incredible amount of resources and knowledge in the country that I would not have been able to find otherwise. Through monthly, 1-1 coaching sessions I've been able to pivot my business, revise my pitch deck to raise angel investment, and overall am certain that these sessions helped impact the direction and growth of my business the last 6 months! What I liked the most is that my coach has real business experience as an entrepreneur and she could relate to a lot of what I was saying while sharing stories of her own. I highly recommend getting in touch with Brilliant Work especially if you're a founder or small business!

Lizanne's coaching helped me fantastically to turn my dreams and mission into practical steps. After all, it was my desire to make the world more beautiful with my business without additional stress. With Lizanne's help, I learned to see the business side of what I do and she gave me many valuable insights. For example, how to translate my impact into financial benefit for my partners and how to prioritize so that there is stability in your business. Lizanne thinks well of her client's needs, and is also strict when you try to ignore the business side because you are dreaming very hard. I now have roadmaps for my sales and marketing and tips on how to pitch even better. Thank you so much! Definitely highly recommended!
