"Digital marketing needs computers and people.
One generates data. The other generates meaning."

.companion

Small team. Big customers. Digital pioneer since 1998.

.companion is an independent service provider. A digital pioneer that has been making a name for itself for more than 20 years, which is quite a bit bigger than the company. Our customers stay with us for an average of 8 years. That's down to quality. Because of our clear stance as a neutral advocate for companies. And because of our DNA, which contains a wide range of innovations for marketing and media.

We are digital pioneers and will remain so.

One team, one spirit, many disciplines

How can content in Paid, Social, Owned be played out better? How can more be achieved in terms of response (earned), image and sales? 14 employees with attitude and top references, from mathematicians to communication scientists, are working on these questions. We work together, eat together and go rafting in the summer.

Our common goal is not to generate "insights". Our goal is data-based decisions by people and teams.

Office-Home - an office as a second home

"Exit" is not the purpose of our company. We want to create something meaningful and lasting. Working for us should be fun, satisfying and rewarding. That's why .companion is located directly on Savignyplatz, the most beautiful square in West Berlin, with 100 restaurants around the corner, right on KuDamm. It is a classic Berlin apartment in an old building (formerly a hotel), with stucco under the ceilings and parquet underfoot.

Here are our guidelines for having as good a time as possible between the "engine room", "bus stop" and "red salon".

  • Interdisciplinary work: our projects always cut across data science, media analysis and marketing consulting. That's why we have employees with "hard" skills in IT and BI, but also project managers and consultants with empathy and a deep understanding of organization and processes. The result is a lively and colorful cooperation with steep learning curves.
  • Self-determined work: With maximum lean but well-supported internal processes, self-organization, teamwork and individual communication are the be-all and end-all. This allows each employee to develop according to their own inclinations.
  • Personal development: We not only finance sport for employees, but also further training or part-time studies. Companion encourages people to promote themselves.
  • Flexible working time models: Everyone according to their needs: whether full-time, part-time with home office, or "digital nomad" completely remote - all working time models are possible with us. Overtime is not expected.
