Digital Strategy & Implementation

Digital Branding · B2B Communication · Digital Business Models

Branding and digital strategy are my specialty. My approach bases on lean & digital brand management. It combines the best of two worlds: The strategic depth that is practiced in corporations and the pragmatic and direct approach of a start up. It is holistic and involves full scale digitalisation as well as modern web techniques.

Typical themes of my work include:

• Concepts
• Team building
• Value proposition
• Finding and managing vendors and agencies
• Media and resource planning
• Qualified purchasing of services, as well as managing contractors
• Accomplishing projects
• Auditing / optimization / controlling
