Thiago C.
B2B Sales Closer | Inbound, Outbound & Account Management
Hi, I'm Thiago — an international sales specialist who closes deals and keeps the clients after. I'm hungry, I move fast, and I take direction well. Point me at the offer and I'll get to work. Scroll down and check my testimonials before you read anything else. Real names, real companies, real screenshots of closed revenue. I document everything I claim. Then message me — I'm always happy to talk through what you're building and see if we're a fit. Four years selling AI, SaaS, marketing, and automation across borders. At Cisco I worked accounts across Europe in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Since then I've closed AI systems for founders in Portugal and Brazil, and lead generation for contractors across the US and Canada. Three languages, multiple markets, one job: find the real problem, earn the trust, close the deal. Here's how I work: 1. My clients' results are the proof. In the metal building space, the companies I closed and onboarded went on to win real building projects from the pipeline we delivered. What comes up in their testimonials isn't just the deals — it's the communication, the responsiveness, and the follow-through. Closing is one day. Keeping a client happy is every day after. 2. Inbound, outbound, and expansion — I run all three. Inbound demo requests and form fills, outbound cold calling and email into net-new accounts, and cross-selling additional solutions into clients who are already buying. That last one is where most reps leave money on the table. If a client bought lead gen, they probably need automation. If they bought a website, they probably need paid ads. I look at the existing book before I chase a stranger. 3. I don't disappear after the signature. I onboard every client personally and make sure they understand the impact on their operation — not just what it does, but what it's worth to them. I stay reachable. When something isn't landing, I fix it before it becomes a churn conversation. Clients who feel taken care of renew, expand, and refer. 4. I chase the deal until there's an answer. Most deals die in the gap between the first call and the second, and most reps let them. I don't. I follow up on a cadence, I keep the thread alive when a prospect goes quiet, and I stay on it until I get a yes or a real no. Proactive beats reactive every time — I'd rather make the call nobody asked me to make than watch a warm deal go cold. 5. I qualify hard before anyone gets on a call. Budget, timeline, scope, decision authority — if it's not there, I'm not booking it. Your calendar should be full of buyers, not browsers. 6. Cold calling is where I was built. At Lead Performance I managed SDR cold-calling operations and optimized the outbound workflows behind them. Before that, years of it at Cisco, plus outbound for my own ventures. If the top of the funnel is dry, I don't wait on marketing — I go fill it myself. 7. I sell technical products to skeptical buyers. Consultative sales for AI systems — appointment setting, lead reactivation, automated follow-up — plus SaaS, AI agents, websites, paid ads, and social media management. Real estate, clinics, recruitment, restaurants, galleries, event management. I don't discount my way to a yes. 8. I have a developer in my network who actually builds this stuff. An AI automation specialist who builds chatbots, custom automations, and sales-ops infrastructure, and delivers on time. Lead routing, missed-call text-back, instant follow-up, reactivation sequences, CRM automation: I sell it, he builds it, the client gets it. 9. I bring ideas, not just calls. If the script isn't converting, I'll rewrite it. If the follow-up cadence is leaking deals, I'll rebuild it. If the offer needs repositioning, I'll tell you straight. Whatever it takes to lift close rates. Who I work with: technology and SaaS companies, e-commerce brands, marketing agencies, and B2B organizations. Founder, technical buyer, or procurement team — I don't change who I am for the room. Let's talk. Send me a message and tell me what you're selling, who you're selling to, and where deals are stalling. I'll give you my honest read on it whether we end up working together or not. If it's a fit, we'll both know quickly — and I'll be ready to start. Markets I've worked with: United States, Canada, Europe, Portugal, Brazil, United Kingdom & Ireland. Languages: Portuguese (native), English (fluent), Spanish (fluent).
