Hi, I\u2019m Stefan, founder of Friendly, Wortspiel and Clarity.swiss.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been involved with the internet since 1999. I have built companies, made mistakes and carried responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again and again, I\u2019ve seen that the truly important decisions rarely fail because information is missing. They tend to fail because too many things are true at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Clarity.swiss<\/strong><\/a>, I offer entrepreneurs and business owners a focused conversation when a decision costs more than money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Friendly<\/strong><\/a>, we build web analytics and marketing automation for organisations that want digital sovereignty: as a Swiss company, with Swiss hosting and open source instead of lock-in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wortspiel<\/strong><\/a> is my established digital marketing agency business: experienced, pragmatic support for selected mandates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have an exist strategy<\/a>, not an exit strategy: I build companies that are meant to last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I\u2019m a father. That gives my life a great deal of meaning and shapes my view of work: companies and work should serve life, not the other way around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blog<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I write occasionally about entrepreneurship, marketing, decisions, minimalism, personal development and what I learn along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of my essays have been read by a surprising number of people. Others mattered mostly to me. I\u2019m fine with both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read the blog<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featured in<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My work, my companies and my personal experiments have been covered by several media outlets, including Tages-Anzeiger<\/a>, Blick<\/a>, NZZ<\/a>, and Handelszeitung<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That was very nice of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m happy to hear from people who want to build, organise or decide something meaningful:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
