With our topic management, we find the stories that turn our clients' strategic messages into credible narratives. We gather potential topics from all available sources - from internal sources to database-driven market and competitive intelligence, social listening to ongoing media analysis. We match this superset of possible topics with our clients' organizational messages and use them to create editorial plans with topics that tell their story credibly across all channels - on an ongoing basis.

Using market-leading PR software, we send press releases to individual press distribution lists in DACH, Europe or worldwide - geared to our customers' focus countries. Depending on the requirements, we send them in German, English or translated into the respective native language of the editor.
Readable: Media and target group oriented content creation

Understanding creates trust -
the Carta concept
We believe that there is no substitute for personal contact, even in international trade press work. That is why we have continuously expanded our team in Speyer with consultants who speak a second language fluently in addition to German. This enables us to speak to journalists in all major language markets in their native language - whether Spanish or Chinese, Russian or Portuguese. This creates maximum understanding of the topics being discussed and trust even on the last meter to the gatekeeper - and thus the best possible conditions for high-reach press campaigns. Whether in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, throughout Europe, Asia, America or Australia.
At the same time, our PR consultants speak German at a native level. This ensures the quality of understanding in the communication flow in every direction - to the customer and to the journalists in the respective target countries.
