Communication Agencies in Cologne

We place your brand in the mind of your target audience. We are out of line, dance our name and shine in the high as well as in the low notes. We turn around on the spot, look with confidence for possibilities and dig in niches for new markets. Because expertise is not always purely a matter of rationality. We push creativity to the max, story-tell until the pen gives out and live for emotional brand marketing. Loved as seen, done as thought, sleek to a peek. Everything with a new twist and freshly served for you. Ranging from A all the way until Zebra, from color to collective.

We are the black sheep wearing a white west. We are looking for the red thread in the yellow of the egg and give it to you black on white. We let the meaning go - go for what fits best. We are not a marketing agency, we only do marketing.

This is not an agency. This is farbenkollektiv.

We support internal teams with reliable, agile marketing support in day-to-day business – hands-on, flexible, and efficient. Whether it's social media, newsletters, performance campaigns, or content maintenance: we act as an extended arm of the marketing team and provide noticeable relief.
