To achieve success today, companies and brands must not only have a presence, they have to be remarkable. Only in this way will people continue to give them their time and attention.

Since 2001 achtung! has been making companies and brands remarkable – with creative stories, stunts, campaigns, and fresher, more digital media work. The ingredients for a real success story: Today, like in no other agency group, some 160 employees are combining the instruments of PR, marketing communication, and social media with hard-hitting ideas.

With this model of a convergent creative agency, achtung! GmbH with around 120 experts represents the heart: This is where the ideas and know-how of all our talented people come together; this is where we orchestrate and organize the different disciplines. And this is where, on behalf of some of business’s biggest names, unique approaches are conceived that not only reach people but also move them.

This means that in our age of the attention economy, achtung! stands for a more effective form of brand and corporate communication. As proved by our work, our awards, and our growth – and not least by the many clients with whom achtung! has already had the privilege of working for a remarkably long time.

Hi, Düsseldorf – this is achtung! Mary – the youngest, highly-talented brand daughter of our agency group, in the far west of the Republic. It’s also the first achtung! agency that was conceived from the start to suit our typical networking of earned, paid and owned media.

The founder and managing director of achtung! Mary is Babette Kemper. Essentially, she was already cut from the same cloth as achtung! before the two sides ever knew each other: In recent years as a manager, Babette has increasingly combined her immutable PR DNA and her belief in the powerful idea with her substantial marketing expertise – most recently with the Ogilvy Group. Because she was already convinced long before that PR, marketing, and creativity need each other to reach a new level of effectiveness.

When achtung! and Babette met it was a match made in heaven. Around the end of 2018, the two finally joined forces and put together an excellent team that is bringing the convergent, ideas-driven achtung! approach to the Rhine – in compact form but with the same powerful punch. As the accounts won in the first weeks of business show: We can all expect extraordinary things from achtung! Mary in the years to come.
