ABOUT TIMO BRANDL
With over a decade of experience in sales, today, as a Sales Manager at Lakeland, I focus on more than just numbers—I develop sales strategies that work, build high-performing teams, and create meaningful partnerships. Sales isn\'t just about closing deals, it\'s about understanding people, solving problems, and driving growth. Over the years, I have mastered the art of sales training, performance monitoring, and KPI-driven controlling to ensure both my teams and clients reach their full potential. My ability to lead, motivate, and develop employees allows me to create a culture of excellence where everyone thrives. Beyond sales, my background in fitness management and sports nutrition has shaped my mindset. I approach my work with discipline, endurance, and a results-oriented attitude—just like an athlete preparing for a competition. Throughout my career, I have successfully built high-performing sales teams, optimized sales processes, and significantly increased revenue and target achievements. As Sales Manager, I managed a national team of 9 employees, improving their average target achievement from 36.67% to 87.27% within months. Later, I led a regional sales team in southern Germany, ranking among the Top 3 teams nationwide with a 95% target achievement. My leadership approach is characterized by determination, energy, and proactivity. I am always developing new strategies to enhance efficiency and adapt flexibly to changing circumstances. I thrive in challenging situations and encourage my teams to do the same. I strongly believe that great leadership means setting ambitious goals, presenting tailored challenges for each team member, and fostering continuous personal and professional growth. My ability to motivate and mobilize teams stems from my conviction that every employee deserves individualized guidance and support to reach their full potential. I apply an outcome-oriented leadership style, ensuring both team success and long-term development. I continuously strive for professional and personal growth, which is why I recently completed my MBA, Master in Team Management and Leadership & Master in Sales Management and Marketing. My ambition is to further develop my expertise in strategic sales, leadership, and business development to take on even greater challenges in the future.
