In short
I work remotely with Zurich teams as a fractional growth lead: owning SEO & GEO, paid media, CRO, attribution and AI automation — and building Shopify stores when the store is the bottleneck. Engagements start with a one-week audit (≈ CHF 1,200).

Zurich is Switzerland's financial and technology centre, home to global banks and insurers, a large engineering community and deep-tech spin-offs from ETH Zurich. The Swiss market is small, multilingual and wealthy: customers pay for quality, but they expect precision, discretion and flawless local detail in every interaction.
Swiss users mostly search on Google, but language varies by region and many people search in more than one language. Swiss German searchers use local words such as 'Velo' for bicycle and 'Natel' for mobile phone, and written Swiss German uses 'ss' instead of 'ß'. Prices must be shown in CHF with Swiss delivery details, and AI assistants recommending suppliers for Swiss queries lean on Swiss media, directories and review sources.
Swiss law is generally more permissive than the GDPR about analytics cookies, relying on transparency and the right to object, but any site targeting EU visitors must still meet GDPR consent standards. I usually set up one consent model that satisfies both, with server-side tagging to keep measurement stable.

FAQ
Yes. I invoice in CHF, EUR or USD. Services imported into Switzerland are usually covered by acquisition tax (Bezugsteuer) on your side where it applies; your fiduciary or accountant confirms the treatment.
I plan campaigns and SEO across German-, French- and Italian-speaking Switzerland, and native speakers write or review content in each language so every version sounds local.
Yes. I build compliance review into campaign workflows and work alongside your legal and compliance team. Final approval of any financial advertising always remains with them.
Often, yes. Galaxus is where many Swiss shoppers compare products, prices and reviews, so a well-maintained listing adds reach and credibility, while your own store protects margin and customer data. I help decide which products belong on each channel, keep pricing consistent and measure what each one contributes to revenue.
