BBK

What BBK does

BBK – Agentur für Kommunikation AG is a privately held, family-operated full-service advertising and communication agency headquartered in Sirnach, Thurgau, Switzerland. Founded in 1980, the firm has operated for more than 45 years serving Swiss businesses with integrated classical and digital communication services. Its offering spans brand strategy, corporate design, online marketing, advertising, event and trade show execution, photography, and film production, delivered through direct, quote-based client engagements without disclosed pricing.

The agency is structured as a Swiss Aktiengesellschaft (AG) and runs a compact seven-person team anchored by multiple Kammermann family members in executive, administrative, and online marketing roles, with senior creative leadership via Markus Kammermann (also an ADC member). BBK's technology footprint is non-proprietary: it relies on standard industry and SaaS tooling — Microsoft 365 for operations, ClickUp for project management (hosted on AWS), Brevo for newsletter distribution, Teambox for collaboration, and Ping Internet Agentur AG for hosting — with documented Data Processing Agreements supporting GDPR compliance. The agency maintains an organic presence on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and LinkedIn and operates a newsletter for prospect and client engagement.

BBK's go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with no intermediary channels, and its distribution is concentrated within a single country (Switzerland), primarily the Thurgau and eastern Switzerland region. Its visible client portfolio spans unrelated verticals — including wood construction, distillery, brush manufacturing, government (Kanton Thurgau), banking (Raiffeisenbank Wil), construction, painting, electronics, solar energy, and ritual services — indicating a horizontal segmentation strategy targeting medium to large Swiss companies seeking comprehensive communication solutions. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Jung von Matt: Swiss-origin full-service creative agency with strong B2B and brand work across classical and digital channels. Like BBK, it offers integrated communication services but at significantly greater scale, making it the most relevant direct comparable for an established Swiss full-service agency.
• Wirz Group: Long-established Swiss full-service advertising agency based in Zürich, offering brand strategy, design, digital, and campaign execution. Highly comparable to BBK in scope of services, though Wirz operates at a much larger national and international scale.
• Farner Consulting: Swiss communications and PR consultancy offering brand communications, public relations, and integrated marketing. Comparable to BBK in serving Swiss enterprises and government-related clients with classical-plus-digital communication, but with a much broader national footprint.
• Hotz Brand Consultants: Swiss brand and corporate-design consultancy delivering brand strategy, design, and integrated communication. Highly comparable to BBK's corporate design and rebranding offerings (e.g., Blättler, A+B Bürsten), with a similarly SME-focused Swiss client base.
• Spillmann/Felser/Leo Burnett: Swiss full-service creative agency operating under the Leo Burnett network, providing brand strategy, advertising, and digital execution. Directly comparable to BBK in service mix, with a stronger emphasis on creative advertising campaigns for Swiss and international brands.
• Hiltl Brand & Communication Designers: Swiss design-led communication agency offering branding, corporate design, and digital solutions. Comparable to BBK's design-heavy work and SME focus, though typically positioned at a higher-end creative tier.
• CRK Kommunikation: Swiss full-service agency with capabilities in brand, digital, and integrated marketing. Comparable to BBK in serving Swiss clients with classical and digital communication services.
• Metzgerlehner Partner: Swiss agency offering strategy, branding, and integrated communication for SMEs and enterprises. Directly comparable to BBK in service breadth and Swiss Mittelstand client focus.

Broad incumbents

• Dept: Global digital-first agency with Swiss operations, offering digital marketing, technology, and creative services. Comparable to BBK's digital capabilities but at much larger scale and with proprietary technology platforms BBK lacks.

Others

• AdSwiss (Advertising Switzerland / Leading Swiss Agencies): Industry association of leading Swiss advertising and communications agencies. Relevant as an ecosystem peer and benchmark network rather than a direct competitor; useful for understanding where BBK sits within the Swiss agency landscape.
