sehenswert

What sehenswert does

sehenswert is a Swiss full-service advertising and communications agency founded in October 2019, operating from offices in Zürich (Militärstrasse 90, 8004 Zürich) and Chur, Graubünden (Tittwiesenstrasse 25, 7000 Chur). The firm delivers work across four interconnected service pillars: Branding & Concept (strategic positioning, communication strategy, UX design, campaign development), Digital & Content (SEO, SEA, remarketing, social media marketing, newsletters, content marketing), Graphic & Design (corporate design, POS design, print collateral, illustration), and Web & Coding (websites, e-commerce, web apps, mobile apps, screen design). Underlying technology is conventional agency tooling — WordPress CMS, HTML/CSS/JavaScript, e-commerce platforms, video production, and digital advertising tools — with occasional bespoke development such as interactive product configurators. The agency is privately held, founder-driven, and structured around a core team of 8 specialists supplemented by an on-call freelancer network for specialized disciplines (Werbetechnik, video, design). Legal jurisdiction is specified as Laax, Graubünden, Switzerland.

sehenswert generates revenue primarily through project-based fees for branding, graphic design, web development, and digital campaign work, with invoices typically issued quarterly or upon completion of work phases. A secondary revenue stream is emerging in the form of recurring digital marketing retainers (SEO/SEA maintenance, social media management, content creation). Pricing is custom and scope-based, quoted in Swiss Francs with standard 30-day payment terms. The go-to-market motion is consultative and direct, targeting mid-market to enterprise Swiss B2B clients through face-to-face meetings, with event-driven activation through trade fair presence and client-location photo/video shoots.

The agency's client portfolio is horizontally diversified across Swiss industries including paper manufacturing (Perlen Papier AG), steel construction (Jörimann Gruppe), nanotechnology (Heidelberg Instruments Nano), optometry retail (Doctor Eyepoint), water technology (Oxyle), medical technology (IDUN Technologies), construction (Marti AG), electrical/ICT (swisspro AG), and trust/tax services (RRT). Notable engagements include a 150th anniversary open-house campaign for Perlen Papier AG, a job portal with automated applicant management for Jörimann Gruppe, a product launch website with custom configurator for Heidelberg Instruments Nano, and multi-location POS signage rollout across 8 Doctor Eyepoint retail sites.
