MY STORY

From Rejected Intern to CEO OF A multi-million euro SaaS business

Do you know the saying: ‘Persistence pays off’?

I’ve always believed in that, and lived by it.

I was 16 when I built my very first website. It was for a local dry cleaner, and while it wasn’t much to look at, the fact that I could create something online that actually helped someone’s business… that was magic to me.

It sparked something. That spark turned into an obsession with online marketing. I wanted to learn it all: how to attract visitors, convert them, automate sales, scale it.

That’s when I discovered IMU, the Internet Marketing University. I was immediately drawn to the way they taught online marketing — practical, honest, strategic.

I applied for an internship four times.And got rejected… four times.

Every time, the answer was the same: “Thanks, but we’re not looking for interns right now.”
And every time, I came back a little more prepared and a little more determined.

In 2014, I saw a new job opening at IMU for a support position.

I applied, got the job, and jumped in with both feet.

Answering tickets, helping clients, learning everything behind the scenes.

Within six months, I was managing the back office.

And in 2015, when the company hit a tough period, I stepped up — not because I had to, but because I believed in what we were building.

Then in 2017, Tonny Loorbach (founder of IMU) offered me something I’ll never forget:

I BECAME Co-OWNER

Fast forward to today…

We’ve built IMU into one of the leading online marketing companies in the Netherlands.

Our flagship product Plug&Pay, sales funnel software that lets entrepreneurs build profitable funnels in minutes, is being used by more than 9.000 businesses.

Together, they’ve already processed over €850.000.000 in revenue through our tool.

That’s more than €1.000.000 per day. Mind-blowing.

We’ve helped course creators, coaches, consultants, webshop owners, you name it, build automated, scalable businesses they’re proud of.

And the best part?

This is just the beginning.

That little spark I felt at 16?

It’s now a full-on fire 🔥

The biggest challenge for most PEOPLE starting a business?

Not knowing where to focus, or where the fastest growth lies.

Because I’ve worked with hundreds of entrepreneurs and websites, I can quickly spot the bottlenecks… and the biggest opportunities.

I’m known for making complex systems simple.

I help people unlock key insights that make their entire strategy more focused, effective, and results-driven.


Thanks to years of hands-on experience, I can translate theory into real-world examples that instantly click — and can be directly applied to someone’s own business.

Entrepreneurs and marketers often come to me for one reason:

They want better results from their website, funnel or offer.

And they know I’ll give them clear, actionable steps to make that happen.

"I WAS RECEIVING PAYMENTS NON-STOP!"

Thanks to Martijn, my sales are now completely automated. Last summer, my husband and I were in Crete. I was receiving payments non-stop! At first, I thought, "Omg, did we book a hotel that's too fancy?" But we'd already made back our expenses by the end of the day. To me, that's living the good life!
