The Team

Ready to explore new growth opportunities in the German market?

Send us a message, and we’ll get back to you shortly.

This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.

As one major pillar of your success in the German market, we’ll make sure your German content is perfectly adapted to your new audience, including proven sales psychology techniques, current trends and tendencies. High-quality texts will increase your chances of converting interested visitors into paying clients.

Entering a new market makes sense if you are already well-established in your current market and now wish to replicate and scale this success in a new market. A new market, such as Germany, offers a new, bigger customer base with a huge growth potential on all levels.

Before translating or writing even a single piece of content, you’ll have a chance to meet the team and share your entire brand identity with us. We need to know your origin story, your vision and mission, values, your product and services, your current target audience as well as your goals throughout our collaboration. The more we know about you, the better we can write for you.

You may have experimented with AI-generated marketing content for your current market and are probably quite familiar with its risks and limitations in its current state. Our recommendation as experts is never to solely rely on AI. Always ask a native German speaker for a style review.

A small team offers the best of both worlds: personalised attention like a freelancer and diverse skills and combined strengths like a big agency, ensuring efficiency, quality, and enjoyable collaboration. Plus, we can manage higher volumes of work without compromising quality. At WordPotential, you are not just ‘another client’ driving our revenue but someone close to our hearts, whom we genuinely want to see grow.

It may take some time for the German audience to become familiar with and trust your brand. However, if you’ve conducted sufficient market research and your marketing strategy isn’t entirely off course, success is likely to come, sooner or later. Trust the process!

This depends on many different factors such as niche, product/service, target audience, timing, etc. Based on your marketing strategy, we will do our best to make your entrance into the German market as smooth and successful as possible — with content that sounds like it’s from a native German brand.

At the outset of every collaboration, our team establishes a bespoke collaboration agreement covering all crucial aspects. Additionally, we have NDAs in place for all members of the WP team, guaranteeing that none of your data or content will be shared with third parties without your prior permission.

We’ve translated over 150,000 words from English into Spanish or German, including

  • Social media posts and paid adverts

Managing such a high volume of translation into both languages while maintaining quality and consistency can be a challenge if you’re working with several independent freelancers.

Why not save time and money by outsourcing to a whole team?

Who is LanzAbility?
Or who is Crazy DAVID? We’re not sure which one is better known. David’s the CEO of LanzAbility, the only holiday provider in Lanzarote that caters for people with disabilities. David initially reached out to WordPotential because he wanted to offer these unique adapted holidays to German holidaymakers. While this is still planned for the future, he became more interested in the power of LinkedIn and how engaging posts can really make a difference.

Service

A perfectly adapted holiday of a lifetime for people with diverse disabilities (wheelchair users, visually impaired, other special needs). This includes not only adapted accommodation and transport, but also unique adapted experiences.

Mission

To make the magical island of Lanzarote accessible to everyone, regardless of their disability, and to help them create unforgettable memories.
Goal
To become visible and increase his reach on social media, especially LinkedIn, to build a strong personal brand that attracts the right people.

How is WordPotential helping LanzAbility?
Over the past 6 months, we’ve helped David with content creation in the form of:
  • Regular social media posts
  • Social media profile makeover
  • Various articles and other content the for LanzAbility website
  • A newsletter collaboration
  • A bespoke collaboration email

Results

David himself says he’s getting a lot more traffic to both his social media profiles and the LanzAbility website.

What’s even better is that he receives frequent enquiries for collaboration from disability organisations and advocates.

This is creating more awareness of LanzAbility and its wonderful mission, which we are sure will soon result in fully booked holiday accommodation in Lanzarote.

Initially, I chose not to promote Laura or WordPotential because she’s sooooooo bloody good at what she does I don’t wanna share her with anyone else. But sharing is caring, and after working together for over 9 months now, I know I can count on her for the long run.

I knew that working with a copywriter would be an ongoing investment, but running two businesses, I also knew I wouldn’t have the time nor the linguistic and creative skills to create proper content for LanzAbility. After 20 minutes of talking to Laura, I knew she was the right fit because she understands my brand SO well.

Everything she writes or “laurifies” is always authentic and on-brand. She asks the right questions to get new input or proactively comes up with her own ideas. I guess she’s a good mix of Made in Germany-quality and Canary Islands easy-goingness. Laura, you are not just a team member, you are a key part of the success of my business.

Logo Eversports
Who is Eversports?

Back in 2013, booking and paying for sports activities online was quite a challenge, with the necessary information often scattered across various websites. That’s when Vienna-based Eversports decided to create one central platform to connect activity enthusiasts with studios, sports centres, teachers, and trainers.

Currently, Eversports are established in 8 countries and offer their services in the B2B sector. Now they’re expanding into the German-speaking B2C sector with the aim of making sports activities more easily accessible to people like you and me.

Service

A modern software tool for businesses to automate administration, increase retention, boost acquisition, and help them grow. Additionally, the Eversports marketplace connects consumers with studios and sports providers.

Mission

Eversports contribute to a healthier and more active society by empowering everyone to improve their lives through sports, fitness and mindful movement. They aim to get people going and keep them moving.

Goal

How is WordPotential helping Eversports?
Eversports’ most powerful marketing channel is blog articles. People are looking to relieve physical pain or try out a new sport will typically open up Google and ask questions such as:
  • “Is yoga really effective for lower back pain?”
  • “Should I keep on training or rest when I have sore muscles?”
  • “Where do I find a squash court in my area?”
These are the types of questions Eversports wants to help people with. Through easy-to-read, fun and informative blog articles, they aim to provide answers to all things sports and encourage their readers to get moving.
To ensure that Eversports’ blog articles appear at the top of the search engine results pages (SERPs), each article must be SEO optimised. This allows the search engines to easily find and display articles that are relevant to the reader’s Google search query. How? Among other things:
  • Reader-friendly article structure
  • Relevant keywords and links,
  • Engaging ToV and a little tongue-in-cheek?

Results

It’s a bit early to compare the results, but we’ll keep you posted. In the meantime, you can click here to check out their German blog.

We reached out to Laura and her team because we aimed to scale our content production on our B2C blog and ensure everything was adequately optimized for Google search. Outsourcing this work was crucial as we were facing internal capacity constraints.

Thanks to the collaboration with WordPotential, we’ve managed to scale our production tenfold while ensuring fully optimized content. Though it’s still a bit early to assess the exact results, to date, we’ve witnessed a 27% increase in organic clicks on our blog articles since initiating this collaboration.

Laura and the entire WordPotential team are very friendly, professional, prompt to respond, and highly competent. They consistently deliver quality work and are a pleasure to work with.

Already established in Spain and Portugal with a community of over 130,000 followers on Instagram, they were looking for new opportunities to scale and help even more people.

Product

Olistic’s unique formula contains over 30 natural ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, collagen, and probiotics – all combined in one healthy and refreshing vial.

Mission

To promote better hair health and overall wellbeing from the inside out.

Goal

To successfully break into the German market and increase their impact.

How is WordPotential helping Olistic?

The first step to expanding to Germany (and Austria) was to get all existing content translated. The WordPotential team took care of:

  • Their entire website
  • Product brochures
  • Packaging
  • Email flows
  • Paid ads
  • Video content (copy)
  • Order confirmations


And so much more.

To ensure that the translations sound as natural as possible while maintaining Olistic’s friendly yet professional tone of voice, we scheduled several meetings with Olistic’s marketing team.

Together, we agreed on specific terminology, exchanged ideas, and gained a deeper insight into their brand identity. Slogans and wordplay in particular require some extra creative thinking.

The icing on the cake was a package from Olistic for the entire WP team to try out the product for themselves.

With Asana, our project management tool, we set up an efficient workflow where both teams could easily access all tasks, communicate as needed, and keep track of the overall progress.

The second step in the German market launch is focused on increasing reach.

One key way to accomplish this is by creating new content to enhance your online presence. This can take place through many different channels.

Currently, WordPotential is helping Olistic with:

  • Their weekly German newsletter
  • Blog articles for their website
  • Also coming soon is their German Instagram account

As the team was already familiar with both the product and the brand, creating fresh content for Olistic was like translating existing content but adding our own ideas.

Our marketing and SEO expertise combined with our creative minds made this a fun experience with excellent results.

Results

Olistic Science successfully launched their product in the German and Austrian markets in September 2023. Their newsletter reaches thousands of readers every week, and their German Instagram channel is poised to follow suit, with plenty of content prepared to launch in 2024.

See for yourself!

Laura provided exceptional support for our new market opening. The speed and flexibility of her team was crucial in meeting tight deadlines at peak times.

Open communication, brand understanding and efficient project management ensured a smooth and efficient process from start to finish. Working with Laura and her team is not only easy but also impressively fast. Highly recommended!
