I'm an awarded brand- and motion-designer, an accomplished business owner and a certified NLP-Trainer.
I coach & mentor because I love to challenge peoples thinking so they get out of their shadows and accomplish bigger goals with more ease and fun.
Throughout my career from freelancer to co-starting, building and selling a globally operating brand/motion studio, I have won big budgets from brave clients and eventually coached business owners to achieve even bigger results.
All this without complex marketing strategies or a big sales team.
Brave clients choose the least risky option!
Not simply the best creative idea.

"Since we started working with Marko, our revenue has increased by more than 30%, and I think even 40%. Over the years, we always had a little growth, but it was never as significant. Marko is a catalyst for new ideas and developing that into your company."
Uwe Nadler
Ravir Film, Dresden
"Hey Marko, it will be probably another week until I’m ready for the next session. I’ve already applied what we’ve talked about and it has made it easy to close deals and I have a bit too much work on!!!"
Daniel Neale
Motionstory, Byron Bay, Australia
"We only had one session with Marko. In that session, we received important thoughts and impulses, which helped us to rethink and restructure some parts of our company. The positive effect for me personally was that I gained back a lot of time. But more importantly, the conversations with Marko felt like having a brother with a similar mindset."
Robin Hofmann
HearDis!, Stuttgart
"While working with Marko, we got to the essence of what clients need and want to hear and how to integrate that into our website. Now, when we get on a call with new clients, they have a clearer picture of what to expect from us, which is a huge advantage because we can close even big deals faster."

Testimonials
"I met Marko at his previous company, which we had hired to do an overall brand review of our platform (and over 50 channels) in Malaysia. — My team and I were very impressed at how Marko seemed to get exactly what we were after right from the start."
Rob Middelton
Astro, Malaysia
"We gave Marko and the team very little by way of a brief, and even less by way of time to complete the job. The job was done, exceeding our expectations."
Cyba Audi
