What we stand for

Evidence-based storytelling: Developing great stories from scientific findings that touch clients and their target groups in equal measure.

Consistent client perspective: The agency is the advocate for the target groups. Because even more important than the clients themselves are their clients (the bait must be...) Passion and talent to tell brands and their storiesthe stories of brands in a constantly new and exciting way.

What we do not do does not work with us

Unloving catchphrases such as "...rethink" - especially when „old wine is presented in new bottles“.

Campaigns with database images where hands form hearts.

Lack of commitment from the agency or client, because then appreciation is then missing.

„Communication meets hygiene: SCICOM combines these two areas in an unparalleled way. The decisive factor for me is the professional competence in all aspects of hygiene and the broad coverage of all facets of communication. The results are both innovative and creative. It simply makes all the difference that Ms Niknam has deep and sound expertise in all hygiene-related areas and maintains excellent and long-standing contacts with key stakeholders.“

„SCICOM's courage and creativity in breaking completely new ground with the launch of our skin care products excited me from the very beginning. The agency has a great deal of experience in our market and with our target groups - the prerequisite for ensuring that the great creative ideas actually work. SCICOM finds the right professional approach for all target groups: from buyers to ward managers and users of our products to our sales department.“

„Our exhibition stand was really super - very modern, young and fresh and tailored exactly to the target group. Our marketing materials are coherent, informative and also perfectly aligned with the target groups. Especially the "folding folder"  with the 5 tips for studio customers is very innovative, you certainly won't find anything like it at with any of our competitors. The promo pack for studio owners is at least as innovative and unique, and its presentation was 100% in keeping with the trade fair theme of "sustainability".“
