The client asked ANXO to support the development and penetration of a new market segment, aiming for an increase in turnover. Goal was to address the market segment of management consultancies in a more targeted manner. As a result, ANXO analysed and presented the market segment of management consultancies in detail, including a scoring analysis model for the product portfolio fit. Based on the findings, the portfolio for the targeted market segment was successfully optimised and recommendations for the marketing and sales concept were developed.

ANXO was commissioned to set up a new organisational structure. Within this framework, an executive committee was established and provided with operational support. Another goal was to further develop and establish the corporate culture. In order to increase the acceptance of the new corporate culture, key resources were engaged as change agents. Furthermore, a management structure was established that also enables inorganic growth. 

MARKET LEADER FOR THE INTERNATIONAL AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
ANXO was requested to support the implementation of an e-commerce strategy. This included an analyse of the e-commerce performance of the company as well as providing best-practices examples of e-commerce relevant subjects. Based on the findings, ANXO developed a company specific e-commerce strategy.
