We recently started working with Michael Kubiena from Konsultori to set up our internal project management and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the progress. Michael stands out for his proactive support, always thinking ahead before and after meetings. We particularly appreciate his calm and composed demeanor, which creates a productive and collaborative atmosphere within …
Petra Wolkenstein is an extremely knowledgeable coach, she is very creative and often has a solution to a very difficult problem within minutes. She has helped us with business planning, customer acquisition, internal processes and much more.
We have worked with Petra for almost two years and every meeting we have had with her has been a blast. Not only is she highly professional, but she has such a positive nature that always makes for a friendly and supportive exchange. I highly recommend working with petra and her team as she has …
Petra showed me different perspectives on my financial planning, including how to calculate market size, prioritise certain client groups, and optimise professional activities. Today I see the added business knowledge not only as a benefit to my business, but also to my clients as I can think along with their professional needs in a sharper …
Working with Petra has been an absolute pleasure. Her deep understanding of our startup and her ability to navigate the complex world of Vienna’s VC funds and customer relationships were invaluable. She was always quick to respond to our needs and provided valuable insights that helped propel our business forward. Couldn’t have asked for a …
I recently attended the Growth Lab from the Vienna Business Agency. It was perfect for us, as we’ve been building our cargo bike event solution for five years, and now it’s time to expand internationally. The program provided a great overview of essential processes: how to scale a business, review your business model, evaluate your …
We are grateful for being part of the Growth Lab organized by Christopher Wippel and Gregor-Robert Posch at Wirtschaftsagentur Wien. It’s been a great chance to dive into professional workshops with top coaches from Konsultori like Petra Wolkenstein and Franziska Kolk. Last week’s input on internationalization was super helpful and a great refresher session from …
Excellent and very helpful discussion. Improvement of the strategy of the company. I would absolutely reommend Konsultori.
Petra was highly considerate of the environment and high-paced nature of the business. She was patient and knowledgeable on the subjects discussed.
Our previous experience was that business development consultants did not understand our sector (humanitarian, development cooperation, and peacebuilding) very well and therefore the advice was not very useful. Our experience with Konsultori was very different: Petra Wolkenstein gave us a lot of food for thought and very useful recommendations tailored to our needs.
Michael Kubiena, thank you! Eye-opening workshop with great insights for our Fybra venture in Austria 🇦🇹🚀
Hi Petra, thank you for your support during the Vienna Startup Package program in 2019. It was a pleasure to learn from you and your amazing insights. For us, this program has been an important step to be awarded by Gartner as a Coool Vendor in summer 2020 and currently to be part of the …
Not too long ago, in a very focused coaching session with Petra Wolkenstein Konsultori, we made plans to blaze new trails and look for innovative ways to take Wristbanditz to the glamorous, international places they belong (a.k.a. work on my weak point and substantially improve the sales process). The result is glamorous: an affiliate partnership …
Thank you Konsultori, Michael Kubiena and Petra Wolkenstein for a very insightful and engaging Scaling Readiness Lab session. The framework and tools you shared were very relevant for any startup who is on a scaling journey.

With your support, we were able to engage in comprehensive long-term strategic and financial planning, which …

I appreciated such a straightforward, hassle-free and honest partner …
Petra Wolkenstein your lecture on negotiation was so insightful and engaging, thank you! You are a great storyteller!
I just wanted to thank you for your time yesterday, it was so insightful and valuable – our discussion has given me a lot to think about that I wouldn’t have considered. I will reach out if I have any further questions and of course, update you with how everything goes (fingers crossed!).
Above all, the collaboration is reliable. That’s exactly what you need at the beginning: reliable partners who are there for you regularly and provide constant support. It also feels trusting and not like “off-the-peg counselling”.
Thank you a lot for the session this week! Some of the feedback from the founders (NPS 100!). “The practical approach. Petra was super useful and clear and knowledgeable. The practical exercise super useful points for the negotiations. The combination of theory and practice. Even though we only learned about term sheets the negotiation practice …

Petra Wolkenstein is THE expert when it comes to growth hacking strategies.
Petra Wolkenstein from Konsultori on #crowdbuilding in #crowdfunding, #tribes and #growthhacking. An ingenious workshop as part of the Accelerator Crowdfunders’ Hub from Wissenstransfer Ost!

I was able to enjoy another great workshop at i2c last week. Petra Wolkenstein shared her knowledge on B2B negotiations with us. My personal highlight was a role-play we did. We formed teams of two-each person representing one of two parties- with the task to negotiate a deal. The scenario was about a scientist and …

Wirtschaftsagentur Wien offers a Growth Hacking workshop with the fantastic Petra Wolkenstein??
Thank you very much for the great morning! I felt very comfortable and go into the day full of impressions and well briefed for the next meeting! You can be sure that the following briefing talks will be different for everyone present. That is thanks to you.
Congratulations on this great event for female entrepreneurs. The speakers really had something to say. As the organizer, you succeeded very well in creating a relaxed atmosphere for discussion.
Petra’s “let’s do it” attitude is a perfect match to the dynamics of a startup team. Her work leads to impressive results.
Petra led a strategy revision process in a dynamic, expanding medium-sized company across several divisions under time pressure. She has the ability to get the most diverse division heads on board, even with difficult topics. The result was a perfect fit.
Petra is quick and clear in weighing up success factors. She gave our company excellent advice – with a scalable and profit-orientated business model, we were able to achieve market penetration right from the start.
Growing with (network) co-operations. A practical workshop. With pragmatic tools, each participant works out their personal next steps!!! It couldn’t be more efficient and to the point! Respect and high praise for Petra Wolkenstein!
The workshop “Marketing and Acquisition for Creative Professionals” was a great success. Petra’s competent, goal-oriented way of giving feedback, analysing problems in start-ups precisely and quickly and providing practical examples as comparative values, combined with an interactive, “creative” workshop leadership made the event very exciting and definitely recommendable.
Vienna, where there are many opportunities and contacts, helps us time and again. Petra Wolkenstein, who does M&A consulting, helped us with the financing round.
The expansion coaching by Petra Wolkenstein helped us a lot, as she was able to take in what we do successfully already and make a suggestion on how we can apply this to enter a new market.
Thank you for the really excellent support and advice.
Petra has the amazing ability of diving into your entrepreneurial world, grasping the challenges you’re facing, and pushing you forward with the right questions and insights. The moment you sit down at a table, Petra is not a consultant but a vital part of your team!
Petra created targeted campaigns with a highly diverse team, delivering quick results.
I was impressed by how well Petra adapted to our communication and working peculiarities as a startup and at the same time had a professional, classic demeanour towards potential customers. I found the collaboration very pleasant.
Thumbs up for Petra! Sparkling with ideas, a great network, focused and structured approach. All of this paired with her engaging and congenial personality is the perfect match for bringing your business to the next level!
