Fresh on the net: EGE - Society for the Conservation of Owls
I am thrilled and very happy that as a web designer I have the opportunity to use the "EGE" - the Society for the Preservation of Owls - with the creation of a new website. As an animal lover and environmentalist, the preservation and protection of our natural world is particularly close to my heart. And since owls, as animals of the night, play an important role in our ecosystem, it is all the more gratifying that I can contribute to their conservation with my expertise.
Designing the website was an exciting challenge and I endeavoured to create a modern and appealing design that authentically reflects the message of the association. I am very grateful for the opportunity to use my skills and passion to contribute to the protection of these animals and I hope that the organisation's new website will inspire many people to get involved in the conservation of our natural world.
Bonus or loyalty cards in marketing
Bonus or loyalty cards are a popular marketing tool aimed at building customer loyalty and retaining customers in the long term.
Customers can use these cards to collect bonus points when purchasing products or services, which they can later exchange for rewards, discounts or other benefits. Bonus or loyalty cards allow companies to increase customer loyalty and customer satisfaction, as the rewards give customers an additional incentive to shop with the company and come back again. Customers feel valued and have the feeling that their loyalty to the company is being rewarded. This can also contribute to customers recommending the company to others in a positive way and thus attracting new customers.
Contact me if you would like me to create bonus or loyalty cards for you as an effective marketing tool to increase customer loyalty and customer satisfaction and attract new customers.

Writing pads as promotional items with practical and versatile benefits
Promotional items such as notepads in your corporate design are perfect as customer gifts and are indispensable.
Notepads or writing pads with your company logo are a useful marketing tool that have a practical use and, unlike other promotional items, are not disposed of immediately. They can be used as a thank you to existing customers or as an incentive for potential customers to strengthen brand loyalty and the image of the company. On the other hand, they can also be used as an advertising medium by printing the company logo or corporate design on the pads, providing a cost-effective way of promoting the company and its products or services.
Notepads or writing pads as Promotional gifts are also popular because they are often used in everyday life with customers and business partners. According to the Central Association of the German Advertising Industry, writing utensils are the most popular promotional items of all. They are also extremely effective, as customers and business partners often use them over a longer period of time and therefore come into contact with the company's corporate design again and again. A printed notepad or writing pad is therefore an ideal means of spreading advertising and remaining in the memory of your customers.
Contact me if you would like me to support you with notepads or writing pads as an effective tool in your company's marketing mix.
Tips & Tricks No. 12
In the "neunmalklug" section, I publish tips, tricks and technical information about graphic and web design at irregular intervals. Today:
What is responsive web design and how does it work?
"Responsive web design" is a technique for developing websites in which the layout is designed to automatically adapt to the size and resolution of the device on which the website is displayed. This ensures an optimal user experience on all devices, including desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones. This is achieved through the use of flexible grid systems, flexible images and media queries.
Here are 9 recommendations for a responsive website:
- Use of a flexible grid structure for the website to ensure that content automatically adapts to different screen sizes and devices.
- Use CSS media queries to customise the layout and size of images for different screen sizes.
- Use fonts that are easy to read on all devices and adjust their size for different screen sizes.
- Avoid unnecessary elements that could slow down the loading time of the website.
- Use of images and graphics with a resolution that is suitable for the respective device.
- Use of clear and concise menus and navigation elements that are easy to use even on smaller screens.
- Testing the website on different devices to ensure that it looks and works well on all screen sizes and devices.
- Minimise the use of pop-ups or other elements that force the user to click on certain buttons in order to use the website.
- Use of a content management system (CMS) such as WordPress, which supports and automatically adapts the creation of responsive content.
Fresh on the net: Wackenbus 2023
In 2023, the Wacken buses will be travelling to the legendary Wacken Open Air, the biggest heavy metal festival in the world, for the 14th time. It's a very special bus service that takes rock fans from different parts of Germany, Austria and Switzerland to the festival, which takes place annually in Wacken, a village in Schleswig-Holstein, and attracts thousands of fans. I had the pleasure of designing a new and fitting layout for the website.
Fresh on the net: Conny Bauer
Sales is more than just selling products or services, the customer needs a holistic strategy. In her sales training, Cornelia Bauer works face to face or in small groups with comparable target groups and analyses where the relevant customers can be found, how to look after them perfectly, retain them and turn them into enthusiastic regular customers, because professional training is necessary and essential for success in sales. I am happy to support you in this with a small and sophisticated website.
Making it big with impressive formats
Expertly designed poster advertising offers you the opportunity to reach target groups that are difficult to address in their individual media consumption.
In this way, a successful poster quietly and patiently courts the favour of passers-by and becomes more familiar with every encounter. I get the most important elements right for you so that everything essential is captured at first glance and attention is quickly and specifically drawn to your product, your event or your motif.

Workbooks on podcasts
I was extremely pleased to be able to work for the Didactics of Social Sciences department at Trier University again: The school workbooks, in conjunction with the appropriate podcasts, are intended to give students the opportunity to combine media skills and action-orientation. In this way, media knowledge is conveyed and research skills are learnt in a very practical way. I have created the corresponding layouts and hope that this will motivate the young listeners particularly well!
The classics: expressive adverts
For target groups that purchase services or products regionally, a regional marketing strategy is still important in the age of online marketing. Display in newspapers, trade journals and advertising journals still makes sense.
Advertising in print media is particularly worthwhile for current offers that encourage spontaneous purchases. This type of advertising also works traditionally well for certain occasions or events. Advertisements can be regionally limited for targeted advertising and in sector-specific newspapers or magazines they reach exactly the right addressees.
I design customised print ads for you with recognition value that stand out and are read.
