FAQ
Strategy, search, shop and execution for foreign brands entering the German-speaking market. One engagement, one point of contact, from the plan to real results, in Germany.
You talk directly to Kai Weber & Florian Elischer – in English
Whether you run an e-commerce business or sell B2B services, entering Germany takes more than translating your existing website and campaigns. Buyers search differently, assess offers against different expectations and rely on local signals of credibility.
This is where market proximity makes the difference. We combine your knowledge of the business with the context needed to turn a proven model into an approach that works in Germany.
German search queries aren’t translated English ones. Intent and terminology differ.
Germans weigh evidence and risk differently. Correct German isn’t enough.
idealo, Amazon.de and Otto shape what buyers consider a fair price.
GDPR and consent, the Impressum obligation, competition law (UWG).
The European Accessibility Act has applied since June 2025 and affects online shops.
Trusted Shops, ratings and clear return rights are dealbreakers, not extras.
At home you might get by with three agencies. Entering a new market, the list grows: a marketing agency, translators, a development partner, a separate search specialist, a local contact and a time-zone gap between all of them.
Our strategists, marketers, content specialists and developers work as one team, with one person accountable for keeping the whole system aligned. We advise and we build it ourselves, in one place.
Market potential, competitors, search demand, your existing assets, technical readiness and the regulatory dependencies specific to Germany. An honest baseline: what’s there, what works, what’s holding you back.
Prioritised initiatives with channel roles, budgets, KPIs, owners and a clear implementation sequence. You’ll know which levers matter for your goals, what we leave out on purpose, what starts first and what it costs.
German-language content, SEO, paid media, landing pages, tracking, websites, shops and integrations. We build it ourselves.
Reporting, testing, optimisation and strategic reviews against the KPIs we set. The strategy stays a working system, not a document.
The people who plan your strategy are the ones who stay when it gets serious.
No handover after the pitch. Whoever builds your plan stays on it, steering the team that delivers and answerable for the result.
Five building blocks, one system. Hover over or tap a card to learn more.
A strategy tied to your goals that sends resources where they pay off. We prioritise, cut the distractions and show the path to the highest return in the German market.
Decisions on evidence, not guesswork: market potential, competitor logic and the barriers to purchase specific to Germany.
Content written for the German market, not translated into it. Localised and built to rank in classic search engines and to be found by AI engines.
We don’t stop at the plan. We build, increasingly AI-assisted, with human control where it counts.
Proof that international B2B clients stay with us. Wieland Global Services has run its SEO and Google Ads with us for over five years, in English throughout, from day-to-day delivery to long-term strategy. The kind of partnership that holds once the pitch is over.

FAQ
Not to start. Many brands sell into Germany without a local entity. Whether one makes sense later depends on tax, fulfilment and payment setup, and we flag it when it becomes relevant.
That depends on where you’re based and how you fulfil. We map what’s needed and work alongside your tax advisor.
You do. Ad accounts, analytics, domains and content stay yours. We work in them, we don’t lock you in.
Yes. Strategy, project management, meetings and reporting run in English. German is our home turf, English is how we work with you.
We’re in Germany, so we overlap with European hours and most of the working day for the UK and the US East Coast. Fixed check-ins mean nothing waits on a time-zone gap.
No. We take the lead on the whole picture or plug the German-market gap. What matters is that one place keeps the overview.
We write it for the market. Translated English rarely matches how Germans search or buy.
No. You don’t get concepts that sit on a shelf. We advise and then build it. Strategy with execution, not slides.
Yes. Shopware, TYPO3, SAP, SEO, paid search, social: the work sits with us, not a third party. That’s why the plan is realistic.
We start with what moves fastest. You’ll see the first results in weeks to months depending on where you start, measured against KPIs tied to your goals.
It depends on scope. The first call is free and sorts out goals and scope.
No pitch, no sales call. A free 30-minute conversation where we show you where your German-market activities should line up and what moves the needle first. You’ll leave with a first read on where your German-market budget is leaking.
