com-n-con

com-n-con is a specialized communications consultancy based in Satteldorf, Germany, founded in 2021. The agency focuses on serving small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that lack dedicated in-house marketing, public relations, or employer branding departments. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all retainer, com-n-con provides flexible, project-based support that can be scaled up or down depending on the client's immediate needs. This makes the agency a practical partner for businesses that require professional communications expertise without the overhead of a full-time team.

Flexible, Project-Based Approach for SMEs

com-n-con positions itself as an external resource for companies that feel they need to do more in press relations, marketing, or employer branding but cannot justify a permanent hire. The agency's services can be implemented either on a short-term, project-specific basis or as part of a medium-term strategic engagement. This flexibility allows clients to address urgent communications challenges—such as a product launch, a recruitment campaign, or a reputation issue—without committing to a long-term contract. The agency's tagline, "kommunikationsberatung" (communications consulting), reflects its core philosophy of providing targeted advice and execution rather than generic, ongoing retainers.

Core Service Areas

com-n-con offers a structured range of services organized around four main pillars: press relations, brand management, marketing strategy, and employer branding. Under press relations, the agency writes press releases, actively builds and maintains media contacts, secures expert placements in interviews and podcasts, and organizes press conferences. For brand management, services include brand development and positioning, brand strategy and management, brand workshops, and optimization of brand identity. Marketing strategy covers the development of customized marketing campaigns, market and competitor analyses, creation of marketing plans and budgets, and continuous performance monitoring. Employer branding is a particularly strong focus, encompassing the development of a compelling employer value proposition, analysis of company culture, creation of career websites and employer branding materials, and employee surveys to improve candidate engagement and candidate experience.

Beyond these core areas, com-n-con also provides social media strategy, including channel selection, content planning, resource allocation, and coaching. The agency's expertise in online reputation management, media monitoring, and digital PR further supports clients in maintaining a positive online visibility. While the agency does not offer a full suite of advertising services, its marketing and advertising capabilities are tailored to the needs of small and medium businesses, ensuring that every campaign is aligned with the client's budget and goals.

Who Should Work with com-n-con

com-n-con is best suited for small and medium-sized enterprises in Satteldorf and across Germany that recognize the need for professional communications support but do not have the resources for an internal department. The agency is particularly valuable for companies looking to improve their employer brand to attract and retain talent, or those that need targeted press and media relations to build credibility in their industry. Because of its project-based model, com-n-con works well for businesses that require occasional support—such as for a specific campaign, a product launch, or a recruitment drive—rather than ongoing, full-service management. It is also a good fit for organizations that want to test the waters of professional communications before committing to a larger retainer. With its focus on flexibility, practical solutions, and measurable outcomes, com-n-con offers a pragmatic alternative for SMEs seeking to elevate their public relations and communications efforts without the overhead of a full-time staff.
