Magdalena Niedoba

Warehouse management

Magda is our warehouse professional. She packs all the products and keeps track of them so that all customers and partners don't have to wait long for the BLUE one. Perfection is her middle name. When she's not stacking mountains of cardboard, she climbs the Allgäu Alps and mountains over 3000m.

Ian Hagg

Video editor

Behind every good video there is a brilliant editor who filters out the best content from hours of raw material and puts it together into a masterpiece. And, in the best case scenario, also enter it into the video archive in a structured manner. For us, this genius is called Ian. He has a special feel for timing, tone, colors and effects. As soon as the recordings are in the box, he disappears behind the screen: sifts through, cuts, snips, plays Tetris with them, reaches into his bag of tricks and scatters confetti! Another video ready to go viral is ready. In his free time he makes music, enjoys being out in nature early in the morning and has been taking photographs for over 12 years.

Marvin Gutknecht

Digital marketers

Marvin develops digital solutions in the areas of web design and e-commerce. What poses enormous challenges for most of the team, he solves creatively and conceptually, often with just a few clicks - including a charming smile. Because Marvin is actually always in a good mood and optimistic. In the backend, when it comes to ad placements or e-commerce plugins, the devil is often in the details, but details are exactly Marvin's thing - which you can see in his private life, among other things, in his tuned Toyota GT 86.
