Anonymised scenarios instead of a logo wall.
Four typical situations from our core markets, each with diagnosis, strategic response and what was deliberately not done.
In short
We do not publish client names or results from ongoing engagements. Instead, four model cases describe typical situations: a machine builder without market visibility, a B2B SaaS company with a broken handover to sales, a building services firm facing an order gap and a skills shortage at once, and a funded scale-up entering the DACH market.
01 · Scenarios
Four situations, four responses.
Each scenario follows the same structure: starting point, diagnosis, approach, expected impact and what was deliberately not done.
- Scenario 01 · Mechanical engineering
180 employees, unknown beyond the existing customer list
Technically leading, absent from the market. What happens when positioning comes before campaigns.
Read scenario → - Scenario 02 · B2B SaaS
Good product, broken handover to sales
Traffic is there, pipeline is thin. The cause lies at the interface between marketing and sales.
Read scenario → - Scenario 03 · Construction & building services
Order gap and skills shortage at the same time
Two target groups, one brand presence. How both problems can be solved in one architecture.
Read scenario → - Scenario 04 · Scale-up
DACH market entry with funding and twelve months
A funded scale-up from another home market. What gets built first, and what deliberately comes later.

02 · How to read them
How these scenarios should be understood.
Agency references have a well-known credibility problem: they only show successes, rarely state the starting point and even more rarely what else happened at the same time.
A company that gets a new website, hires two salespeople and wins a major customer in the same year will see the entire growth attributed to marketing in the agency reference. That is not accurate.
We therefore take a different route. The scenarios describe which situations we encounter repeatedly, which diagnosis we derive and which sequence has proven effective. They contain no figures that claim a causal link that cannot be proven.
What the scenarios say can be tested against your own situation. If the starting point sounds familiar, the diagnosis probably applies.
Structure of each scenario
- Starting point: what the company brings
- Diagnosis: where the real bottleneck lies
- Approach: which phases in which order
- Expected impact with honest timeframes
- Deliberately not done: what was left out and why

Working together
Let's talk about where you stand.
In a 30-minute first conversation we identify where your growth is stuck and whether working together makes sense. You then get an honest view of a realistic scope.
