People. Technology. Sales.
For co-founders, CEOs and sales leaders.
I'm Gerald Zankl, Co-Founder and CEO of Kickscale. Here I share what building a company teaches me about B2B sales, AI and leadership. What works. What doesn't. And what actually moves us forward.
Co-Founder & CEO of Kickscale · Author · Podcast guest
From experience. For practice.
About me
I'm fascinated by what happens when people, technology and sales come together. I've worked in sales, led teams and co-founded Kickscale. Today, I'm building Kickscale into one of Europe's leading sales AI companies.
This is where I share my perspective on building a business. Not as someone with all the answers, but as someone making decisions, doing the work and learning along the way.
My ambition: help people grow.
And build something lasting together.
My focus
Sales is my starting point.
Growth is our shared direction.
01B2B Sales & AI
Better customer conversations. Clearer decisions. And AI that genuinely supports people in sales.
For me, sales starts with a real understanding of the customer, not a perfect presentation. I'm interested in how we learn from conversations and put those insights to work every day.

02Leadership & Development
Strengthen teams. Give people ownership. Create a culture where people grow and make a difference.
I want to build teams that take ownership and make good decisions independently. That takes clarity, honest feedback and the freedom to improve things.

03Co-Founder & CEO Life
From ideas to execution. Decisions, priorities and honest lessons from building Kickscale.
As a co-founder, I ask myself every day: what will actually move us forward? I share how I think about focus, growth and building an organisation, including the questions I haven't answered yet.
