"What do the current trend topics of automation, artificial intelligence and digitization actually mean for B2B sales? Tim Cortinovis recently made this clear to one of our customers (a Hamburg-based trading company that trades in production machinery to East Asia) in a very inspiring keynote speech. He impressively showed how sales processes are becoming more and more digitalized and optimized by the triad of ERP, CRM and PIM, and what influence AI and voice assistants have on customer communication. His presentation was one of the reasons why the customer further commissioned us to jointly identify and evaluate digital opportunities."
"With his expertise in the field of sales automation, Tim Cortinovis has provided our marketing and sales target group with many new impulses, food for thought, and valuable tips in his webinars over the past few years. Always with his finger on the pulse, he cleverly picks up on trends and conveys practical implementational approaches. In our collaboration, I particularly appreciate the reliability, the open and creative exchange and his ability to prepare complex content in an exciting way and to convey it (visually and linguistically) in an appealing way. I can highly recommend Tim as a speaker and partner and look forward to many more projects with him!"

Tim Cortinovis's 2025 biography
About Tim Cortinovis
Tim’s talks are entertaining and you can tell that he has already captivated the audiences as a television host and novelist.
His keynotes are energizing, full of excitement, colorful stories and topical examples. Highly interactive, sometimes challenging, and grounded like a good BBC documentary. According to feedback from participants, Tim’s talks are regularly given the highest rating.
Tim Cortinovis has been dealing with all these questions for almost twenty years. The enthusiasm for it was aroused immediately after his studies of German and Spanish language and literature by responsible positions in international sales and marketing, many of them in the area of IT and automation technologies. What awaits you listening to Tim Cortinovis? In any case, the latest findings on digital transformation in the field of B-to-B sales. And a sympathetic and exciting lecture. When asked why the participants are motivated, cheerful and lively afterwards, Tim Cortinovis replies: “Maybe it’s because I’ve already worked as a television presenter and novelist. Even before my studies, I moderated a daily news program on a private television station, wrote a novel and read it as the first German-language podcast novel and published it in sequels.”
He penned ‘This is Marketing Automation! This is Sales Automation!‘, a well-received guide on scalable growth and sales automation, initially published in the USA in 2020. Its 2021 re-release, titled ‘This is Sales in the Future: How robotics and AI are changing sales in SMEs,’ further extends its impact. His latest book, ‘Homo Automaticus: Embracing Our AI-Driven Evolution,’ offers a roadmap to a future brimming with possibilities. It presents AI not merely as a distant sci-fi concept but as a transformative tool shaping modern human potential. This book challenges perceptions, ignites imaginations, and lays out a blueprint for a reality built on silicon and human innovation.
