What eMotions media solutions does

eMotions media solutions gmbh is a Zurich-headquartered digital agency and consultancy founded in 1998 by Mirco Schmid, with a secondary office in Singapore. The company builds intranet/extranet platforms, web and mobile applications, and delivers branding, communication, and organizational transformation services structured around proprietary Way to Win and Way to Work frameworks spanning People, Performance, and Perception dimensions. Its technology stack encompasses custom CMS integrations, enterprise search, knowledge management, digital asset management, POS systems, screen management, and ticketing systems, and it integrates the ECHONOVUM employee/customer experience platform as a strategic technology partner.

The firm serves enterprise and mid-market clients primarily in Switzerland, with selected international engagements in Southeast Asia. Disclosed customers include psychiatrists (Psychiatrische Universitätsklinik Zürich), financial institutions (Credit Suisse, UBS, Julius Bär, LGT Group, Mastercard, VISA), consumer brands (Coca-Cola Schweiz, HUGO BOSS), retail (Migros Bank, Migros Klubschule, Migros Kulturprozent), transportation (SBB CFF FFS), telecommunications (Swisscom AG), manufacturing (Franke), and trade promotion (Switzerland Global Enterprise). Revenue is generated through project-based digital services (milestone or upfront billing), recurring support/maintenance contracts (monthly/quarterly/annual flat-rate with SLA), hosting subscriptions, and hardware/software resale, with no publicly disclosed pricing.

The company's 2023 'emotions reloaded' repositioning, anchored by partner Erwin Brunner's arrival and integration of his Way to Win methodology, expanded service offerings by approximately 65% and shifted the business from a pure web agency to an integrated brand-and-digital partner. Distribution is direct via enterprise sales across the Partnering to Win engagement model (Plan to Win, Test to Win, Pitch to Win), with marketing primarily through website case studies, the Future Fitness Test lead-generation tool, and LinkedIn presence.
