We want to further consolidate and expand this position.<\/p>\n

As part of our activities, it is important to always be a competent and trustworthy partner both for you and for the agencies involved or other marketing service providers. We pursue a very high standard and a valuable value proposition.<\/p>\n

In order to maintain our independence, to provide the best possible performance and to always meet all of your compliance requirements, we have imposed the following rules on ourselves that apply to all of our employees:[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Tasks and goals[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We advise and support our customers (usually advertising companies) in all questions relating to agency management and agency selection. We ourselves are not an agency, but a management consultancy. Our goal is to promote successful and goal-oriented relationships between our customers and their agencies along our customers’ value chain.<\/p>\n

Our advice follows a comprehensive approach, i. that is, we are not so-called “pitch consultants”, but always develop tailor-made solutions for our customers that best support them in their respective tasks. This can also mean advising against a pitch or a change of agency. The management of relationships and processes between our customers and their agencies is a central part of our work.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Customers relationship[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We work for companies and institutions that use professional communication to achieve their corporate goals. Our customers can always rely on us to deliver our services and statements unconditionally, with commitment and exclusively in their interests. Existing customers always have priority over new business inquiries, agency discussions or other projects. In case of doubt, we do not place a new order to support an existing customer instead.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Relationship with agencies[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We are now an integral part of the communications industry. In this context, we work exclusively for customers, but of course with agencies. Agencies are always treated with respect and partnership, but not as a friend.<\/p>\n

Agencies sometimes do a lot of work as part of the tasks. We respect this work and advocate an adequate allowance for the agencies in Pitches. We are also committed to ensuring that agencies receive appropriate feedback after a pitch or after chemistry meetings.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Responsibility[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]The results of our work can determine the success of customers and agencies – and ultimately also jobs.

In order to guarantee the agencies a high level of transparency in our work and processes, we always give the agencies involved in agency selection processes and other projects as much information as possible or permitted by our customers. We are also committed to ensuring that agencies also receive appropriate feedback from customers.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Independence[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We always act independently and neutrally. We do not enter into any contractual relationships or obligations with agencies and are in no way financially tied to or involved in agencies, neither as public nor as silent partners.<\/p>\n

This does not apply if we commission agencies for self-promotion, press work or other creative, advisory services and thus act as a customer.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Fairness and equality[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We treat all people equally, regardless of their gender, origin, skin color, religious belief or age.<\/p>\n

In particular, we believe that people with so-called disabilities are a natural part of society, and we treat them accordingly. In agency selection processes, all agencies are entitled to the same fair and equitable treatment. As part of agency selection processes, we are committed to ensuring that all agencies that best suit our customers’ requirements are given a fair chance. Personal friendships or dislikes do not matter.<\/p>\n

When dealing with international or global tasks, we treat all agencies equally, regardless of which country they come from or which language they speak.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Team principle[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]One is good alone, we are professional in a team. We are experienced specialists who are really strong in a team. None of us can know everything and therefore nobody works alone. We always work in a team. For example, for all agency recommendations, an internal workshop with at least three experts takes place in good time before the longlist workshop.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Quality management[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We work according to the four-eyes principle.

Regardless of whether there is a written agreement or not. We work according to the principles of an honorable Hamburg businessman. We always treat all of our customers’ information confidentially and conscientiously, regardless of whether there is a partially punishable agreement or just our word. Only information that our customers have authorized us to be passed on.<\/p>\n

The same principles apply to the information given to us by agencies. Agency information is not shared with other agencies.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]Compensation[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]We are paid exclusively for our services by our customers, the advertising companies.

The following comprehensive, globally applicable industry code thus exists, which we understand as a guideline and support for advice and the associations of customers and agencies:[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_color=”color-jevc” heading_semantic=”div” text_font=”font-762333″ text_weight=”600″ separator_color=”yes” separator=”yes”]The Global Agency Search Consultants Code of Conduct[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes”]As consultants, specialized on agency selection processes, our mission is to select the best agencies or marketing communications specialists to answer the needs of advertisers. Selecting an agency is based on detailed understanding of the pitch brief and assessing the nature and level of skills needed, as well as the fit with the client\u2019s culture. This assessment needs a very high level of expertise, experience, insight and understanding of the marketplace, which cannot be based only on data and price.
Through permanent immersion in the ever-changing communication industry, we help our clients to get a unique and thorough understanding of the agency market. We know the key players, their credentials and professional practices such as their culture and personality. We concentrate on client needs and on the structural, professional and cultural dimensions of the agencies considered for the selection. We use all this knowledge to design a tailored and precise selection process in order to help clients identify the best possible partner.<\/p>\n

We are focused exclusively on marketing communications and live and breathe the industry. Analysing agency mergers, acquisitions and transformations, new entrants and market trends through documentation, presentations, meetings and seminars all year long at local and global levels is our passion.<\/p>\n
