What Wemessage does

Wemessage is a privately-held, founder-owned Dutch full-service digital agency headquartered in Deventer, Netherlands, with a secondary office in Zwolle opened in September 2024. Founded in November 2014 by two entrepreneurs, Serkan and Murat, the company has grown from a two-person operation to a team of approximately 25 employees serving more than 250 active clients, primarily Dutch SMEs and mid-market companies across verticals including e-commerce, sports, fashion, healthcare, transport, and construction.

The agency's core offering is organized into three integrated service lines: Performance Marketing (Google advertising, SEO, SEA, social advertising, email marketing, marketplaces management, display, linkbuilding), Website & Design (web design, development, copywriting, branding, hosting), and Totaaloplossing, a bundled full-service engagement. The technology stack is anchored by WordPress for website builds with Magento 2 used for enterprise webshops, and integrates Google Ads, Mailchimp, Google Analytics, Facebook Ads, Klaviyo, Copernica, and Flowbox. The firm also operates WeDash, a proprietary marketing dashboard launched in December 2019 that aggregates cross-channel marketing data with white-label reporting and an AI-powered Content Intelligence tool for SEO text generation; this represents an attempt to build a recurring platform revenue layer beyond traditional agency services.

Wemessage generates revenue through project-based fees and retainer arrangements for ongoing digital marketing services, with pricing not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is sales-led direct engagement supported by an extensive case study library, content marketing, a podcast ("Het verhaal achter het succes"), and the Google Premier Partner designation held by only 3% of Dutch partners. Industry recognition includes four consecutive FD Gazelle awards (2022-2025), three consecutive Emerce 100 listings with promotion to the Middel category in 2026, FONK150 Best Agencies rankings, Google Premier Partner status, and Website van het Jaar wins for client work. The agency is owned entirely by its two founders with no disclosed external investment, subsidiaries, or parent company.
