Bei vielen Projekten braucht es einen externen, erfahrenen FREIBEUTER, der gut vernetzt ist und wendiger als jedes große (Agentur-)Flaggschiff. Flexibilität, Schnelligkeit und Mut, neue Wege zu gehen - dafür steht FREIBEUTER.
 
Als Berater mit 10 Jahren PR-Erfahrung konzipiere und realisiere ich Kommunikation für Ihr Unternehmen oder Ihre Agentur. Ob Brainstorming für eine Stunde oder Rundum-Betreuung für ein Jahr...FREIBEUTER hilft Ihnen, Kopf, Herz und Bauch Ihrer Zielgruppe zu erreichen.
