Christopher, last year´s summer transfer from the Bundesliga, is a real goalgetter when it comes to “expert articles”, “communication strategies” and “event planning”. His secret passions are table soccer and crisis communication. After all, you know, anybody can do success stories.
The best way to start my day?
The perfect morning starts with strong coffee, my dog, and the sports pages.
Natalie is actually never called Natalie. She goes by at least ten lovingly name combinations thought up by her colleagues. You never really have to call her anyway; just follow the infectious laugh. In the social networks, she’s usually on the hunt for the best hashtag or the most beautiful photo. But she’s happiest when she can take this into her own hands!
The best way to start my day?
My perfect day begins with a second round of sleep, followed by a journey through the Pinterest and Instagram universe, or with breakfast on the balcony surrounded by the music of Fairouz.
If you could record dreams, Lili would be the Steven Spielberg of the dream content industry. She travelled all places, met every important person and has successfully completed every crisis scenario several times. When Lili is awake, she channels her creative energy into texts, images and event concepts.
The best way to start my day?
My perfect day starts with sunshine, strong coffee, wool socks on parquet and “Inner Smile” from Texas.
Franzi likes things organized, which you can see from her desk. That doesn’t stop her from surrounding herself with little things that always seem to turn up at her workplace. This is because she sees her desk not just as a collection of pens and notebooks, but rather as a little piece of home.
The best way to start my day?
The best way to start my day is with a big cup of black tea with lots of milk. At the weekend this is accompanied by a big breakfast and a book, and during the week a quick look at the latest news.
Ina’s life fills a playlist. How many songs it has, she can´t say because every day she finds a new one that she thinks was written for her. Melody, arrangement, and a play on words that elicits pure joy. A song as a concept: When the bass hits that bass drum and the guitar carries that bass … and then someone sings out and sums up life in just a 100 words! A principle, simple as effective: Somebody sings, Ina receives. Music is communication par excellence! And there goes your circle. Private meets professional.
The best way to start my day?
Ideally: I wake up before the alarm goes off, bounce out of bed, smell the coffee, hear the music – I am dancing into the day!
Really: The alarm snoozes the battery to death, I stumble into the cold bathroom, make the train way too late with a paper cup coffee in my hand, thinking: Life, right? Gotta love it.
Jenny has been a team member since the early days, so she has seen and shaped the history of schoesslers all the way so far. With her experience, creativity and sense of humor, she keeps a cool head even in stormy times and ensures that her clients arrive to any port safely. In her free time she rather steers the sewing machine for her small handmade label, loves the contemporary literature of TC Boyle, and is a passionate carnival “jeck”. KÖLLE ALAAF!
The best way to start my day?
My perfect day starts with a strong coffee, a big breakfast with friends, and “I Sat By the Ocean” by Queens of the Stone Age.
While a few years ago she was a regular guest on the film industry’s red carpets, these days Johanna is passionate about innovative B2C ideas. In her free time you’ll find her in the museum, at the movies, or on the couch reading a good book.
The best way to start my day?
The perfect start to my day is breakfast on the balcony, fresh rolls, good music, and sunshine on my face!
Together with Buffy, she is the longest serving team member at schoesslers. She actually has no idea what she’d rather be doing and happily enjoys the incredible luxury of being surrounded by so many fantastic people day to day. And sure thing, by Buffy, too.
The best way to start my day?
I’m an early bird! However short the night was. I am always cheerful and difficult to bear for people who don’t do mornings. Have to go out with Buffy anyways.
Magda, the fledgling on the team. As a child, she always wanted to be a park ranger in a dinosaur park, as a teen she wanted to rock the stages of the world. Unfortunately, dinosaurs are extinct and the stages are not yet as big as she planned. Where her journey will take her is not yet clear. So for the time being, she rocks our office.
The best way to start my day?
The perfect day begins at 10 AM in a cozy bed with music from Bear’s Den and knowing that I can get up if I want, but don’t have to.
As a native of Berlin, Maria takes things easy. She likes big ideas and small hyphens and has implemented interconnected campaigns for several years. She loves to exercise, preferably in good weather on her bike.
The best way to start my day?
A long walk followed by a long breakfast. Most definitely with a boiled egg.
Without music life would be only half as beautiful! As a passionate saxophonist, Corinna loves music of all types and enjoys playing jazz and film soundtracks. She loves traveling the world, is always interested in getting to know new cultures, and has a passion for baking.
The best way to start my day?
A perfect day for me begins with a clear blue sky, sunshine, birdsong and a big breakfast—preferably in the fresh air!
Juliane communicates an average of 21,548 words a day, ranging from baby talk to big data, from business calls to after-work drinks. She is a true Taurus – hardly ever flustered, always structured and prepared to give advice.
The best way to start my day?
Child sleeps until 7, I have coffee before kindergarten and client coverage in the inbox.
“A day without laughter is a day wasted,” was Charlie Chaplin’s credo, and Sophie’s motto is just the same – even in stressful situations, she never loses her sense of humor. Her desk may look as if “orderly chaos” has taken over, but sure enough there is always room for a cup of coffee.
The best way to start my day?
My perfect day starts after a sound sleep, with good coffee and sunshine.
As an Elvis fan since her early childhood, Stephie is self-confessed old-school when it comes to music, but professionally she is always curious about what’s new – whether it is interesting clients or relevant trends that will shape society and our future. As a sociologist, she likes to think laterally – unconditionally and always to what´s ahead.
The best way to start my day?
The best way to start my day? My daughter’s little hands on my cheeks, still warm from sleep, and her mouth close to my ear. Then, before the alarm goes off, and as loud as a bear: TIME TO GET UP, MAMAAAAAA! That’s a real waker-upper and it puts a spring in my step too.
Born and raised in “Branne” (think Wisconsin), she keeps the rest of the team firmly grounded should they go all too crazy with the buzzwords at times. She is also extremely reluctant to write about herself in the third person. So I’ll stop now.
The best way to start my day?
A great day for me starts with enough time to roll over and hit that snooze button at least 10 times.
Tim loves technical innovations. Thus, he is looking for great new apps every day. Currently there are 241 of them installed on his phone, tendency rising. He claims to use each one of them or to use them eventually at some point. Maybe you buy yourself a new apartment and how cool would it be, when you are able to measure the floor plan with your smartphone??! Tim is happy to be prepared and he likes it tidy. How else would you be able to keep track of all the programs?! His elaborate folder structure on his phone, he proudly declares, has already impressed many – and he is convinced to possess the best-organized iPhone in the world! Who can say that about himself?
The best way to start my day?
With a cold shower in the early summer sun, followed by breakfast on the terrace. Or in the winter with an episode of the current favorite series – in the unlikely event that little Niki sleeps longer than daddy 😮
If organization is the key, Verena has the whole bunch. Armed with paper and pen, she loves writing to-do lists and making sure that nothing important is forgotten. The best thing about the lists: Striking through what’s done—pure happiness for organizational freaks!
The best way to start my day?
My perfect day starts with a delicious coffee, a sumptuous breakfast with my nearest and dearest, a cuddle with my cat, and loads of Earth Wind & Fire in my ears.
Lena – as she lives and breathes. And she already seems to have lived almost everywhere around the world, at one time or another. From Africa to America, she just doesn’t like to stay in one spot for long. That’s just the way she is. Always on the move over the weekend, visiting friends. Simply “doing nothing” is not a strength of hers. Much to the joy of her boyfriend because Lena is even happy when she’s cleaning. Apparently, even cleaning is better than doing nothing.
The best way to start my day?
Get up and get coffee! That’s the routine every day of the week. At the weekend, though, this works without the alarm and the morning coffee is usually ready about 5 hours later than workdays.
Darja has always been crazy about books and magazines. Her enthusiasm for reading goes hand-in-hand with a love of writing, which is why she enjoys working on good texts on a wide range of subjects. In her free time she loves riding her bike in Berlin (even though she considers it nothing short of dangerous) and she loves yoga (because – not so dangerous).
The best way to start my day?
Get up early (which I do like, really), make coffee, and then go back to bed with that coffee and read Der Spiegel (print edition!) for an hour or so in peace.
You are what you eat … or something like that. Nora not only likes eating cakes, she loves baking them too. And a great cake starts with the planning. Another of her passions. A pinch of pragmatism, a few grams of empathy, a handful of wit, creativity and diligence. By the way, her secret fetish: Spring cleaning!
The best way to start my day?
With Nutella!
“Let me google that.” When you need facts, that’s what you’ll hear from her first. She researches, writes, designs and organizes. All at the same time. As a freshly baked mother of twins—easy peasy! The most wonderful thing about all this: However much the heat is on, she’ll has a smile for you.
The best way to start my day?
After a hopefully uninterrupted night and at least 7 hours of sleep, the start into the day is a cappuccino— just to wake me up.
True to the hashtag #totravelistolive Steffi keeps her passport at her fingertips and the next destination in her heart: the entire world! On other days the Berliner-by-choice loves to discover the German capital and all its hidden gems with her friends and friends-to-be. Sometimes she simply stays home to pursue her talent watching an entire season of her favourite TV show. The chocolate bars eaten during these marathons are her fuel for the weekly jogging round through the park.
The best way to start my day?
When I manage to get out of bed before the snooze alarm goes off for the tenth time. Ideally, it starts with a delicious breakfast (nothings beats pancakes and a pineapple shake at the beach in Thailand) on the other side of the world before I jump into the day to discover something new.
The secret CV of our working student Laura features some rather curious career steps: she worked as a postwoman, as an extra in a children´s series and as a singer in a teen band. Nowadays, she tries to minimise the world-famous North-Hessian slang with her intense literature studies while supporting the team very energetically.
The best way to start my day?
The perfect morning includes an extensive breakfast during which I am completely at ease and able to watch one episode of my favourite TV series with disruption!
When Katrin isn’t jogging, reading or writing, you’ll find her chasing her children across the playgrounds in Friedrichshain. In the evenings, she enjoys listening to music, as well as the occasional karaoke session at Monster Ronson’s – where catchy songs will stuck in her head. Katrin is very happy to share the memorable songs by singing the melody all day long. When she needs to relax, she enjoys sitting in the Briefmarke wine bar on Karl-Marx-Allee, or on the sofa with a book.
The best way to start my day?
Her idea of a perfect morning is jumping straight out of bed into her running shoes and heading for the sunny Volkspark to wake up. If the weather’s bad (0 degrees or less), there’s a more comfortable option: espresso in bed.
Mathias likes good design in all its facets, from coffee-table books to glasses and thought-out exhibitions. Originally from Saxony, now living in Berlin since several years, he loves to get inspired by everything that´s new.
The best way to start my day?
Sleeping in with coffee, cereals and omelette, digital morning newspaper, sun and plans for the day
Gude! Jelena is originally from a small town close to the Hessian-Bavarian border. Almost 10 years ago, she moved to Berlin and is in a constant love-hate relationship with this city ever since. But what she likes at all times are words; words form sentences, create stories: written down in books or creative texts or sung, preferably by David Bowie. Combined with images and sound – awesome! All-time favourites: travel, pizza, music, humor!
The best way to start my day?
Coffee and a decent breakfast belong to a good start into the day. During the week, I treat myself with cereal mixed with everything. At the weekend it´s going to be a full English breakfast and a round of running in the park.
As an only child with a sunny disposition, Natalya was always surrounded by lots of love and affection. She is classically interested in politics, literature and social developments, particularly in the area of equal opportunities for disadvantaged children and young people. She also likes dreaming of a better world – as what would life be like without big dreams?
The best way to start my day?
Rolling around in bed, enjoying the perfect hardness of the mattress, slowly standing up, making coffee, immersing yourself in the first news of the day
Recently, Ari moved from the Sauerland to the urban jungle of Berlin and is currently discovering the city while trying not to get lost in one of the various districts (clearly, she doesn´t have the best sense of orientation). Apart form that, Ari always has a cheeky slogan on her lips (thanks to her daddy!) and she will not give up until she gets what she wants.
The best way to start my day?
A perfect morning starts early for me (I do not know why, but sleeping is unfortunately not my thing – but I give it a try every weekend) with a sleepy look through the popular social media channels, a hearty breakfast and the MoMa !
Proudly presented by the Ruhr area, Beatrix has only been around on the streets of Berlin for a few weeks. But big cities are nothing new for her – after Hamburg, Munich and Cologne – her choice fell on the capital, preferbaly foerever. In addition to working in the office, she describes herself as a travel bug and prefers to explore foreign countries and cultures. In addition to German and English, she also speaks Dutch and some bits of Italian and Chinese.
The best way to start my day?
Turning on my favorite playlist on Spotify for half an hour in the morning, then having a coffee and I am ready to start into the day. I am not a morning grouch, but an early risers, which has infuriated so many family members.
Our working student Anna-Lena is originally from Dresden, but you do not even hear a tiny bit of an Saxon accent. She is quite proud of that. Anna-Lena is also proud of her competitive volleyball career. As a former professional athlete, it is not that easy to fluster her and she gladly accepts any challenge. Studying business administration, Anna-Lena loves everything minimalistic, neat and structured and it is very easy to bribe her with chocolate and other sweets. She supports the team wherever she can and she is not shy of almost any job.
The best way to start my day?
The perfect day starts with sunshine, delicious breakfasts, strong coffee and a good movie or favorite series in bed. Just when I feel really ready for it, I get up and dress up calmly. There is nothing worse than stress in the morning!
Although he regularly succumbs to the retrotopic charm of supposedly antiquated technology and prefers the warm, analogue acoustics of decades old polyvinyl chloride over digital perfection, he also has a soft spot for the postmodern world of zeros and ones. The native Berliner can be characterized by the ambivalence of digital nativity and analogue socialization. However, he sees no immanent conflict in that. He ostentatiously cultivates a lifestyle that combines the advantages of both worlds while maintaining a balance between screen and print. Just as he browses through small shops on the eternal search for new and old records for his collection, he combs through the digital jungle with great curiosity on the lookout for technical innovations of all kinds and complexions. If he is searching neither online nor offline, the longtime tennis aficionado collects occasional winners and torn strings on the dearly beloved claycourt.
The best way to start my day?
The perfect morning he knows only from hearsay. Isn’t that paradoxical in itself? Aren´t “perfect” and “tomorrow” negating each? Are subject and attribute not diametrically opposed on the downwardly open scale of human well-being? Favouring factors such as espresso, sun, sport and world peace can alleviate the morning ordeal of awakening, even if only moderately and without reliability.
Digital meets analogue: As much as Johanna likes to browse the Internet for the latest trends and innovations or share some snippets from her everyday life on Instagram – she prefers to relax in the so-called “real world”. The passionate tennis player belongs to the dying breed of people who still write their letters by hand. Therefore she hoards rough amounts of the most beautiful stationery and picks up even the most bizarre postcards. On the weekend you can find Johanna looking for cake in various cafés in Berlin, her perfect holiday would be a mobile phone free hiking trip through Canada. But until this becomes reality, Google, Pinterest & Co. have to help again to fuel the wanderlust…
The best way to start my day?
Sleep in, sip a perfectly tempered green tea and dance through the apartment listening to music.
The rolling “R” exposes her – Larissa comes from beautiful Bavaria. Born and raised in a little village, she moved to Berlin in 2016. Going to concerts is her passion – from small club concerts to large stadiums, whether Leon Bridges, the Stones or Andrea Bocelli – the range is wide. She loves cooking and baking and is very happy to delight friends and colleagues with the (hopefully!) tasty results. During the first one to two hours after getting up, you should keep distance because she doesn’t like getting up in the early morning at all. But the rest of the day, she’s in a good mood and always ready for some fun.
The best way to start my day?
Back to bed with the first coffee, checking the world events on my mobile phone, then getting the second coffee and being spoken to as little as possible until then.
As a true Berliner, she – of course – doesn’t live in Mitte, but loves the green and quiet outskirts of the city. She uses her car no matter the length of the journey and also abuses it as a wardrobe. After work, she goes straight to her dance classes. Three days without standard/Latin dancing and Julia’s otherwise always good mood vanishes quickly. Besides music and art, water is one of her passions. If Julia sees an accumulation of water somewhere – no matter if pool, lake, sea or puddle – she will be there three minutes later at the latest. As a conscientious micro-influencer, she likes to record this in detail.
The best way to start my day?
Julia belongs to the species of early risers and likes to do all kinds of things immediately after getting up, because she won´t have left any motivation left later on. Afterwards she rewards herself with an extended sweet breakfast on the terrace – als at 15°C as long as she gets a lot of fresh air while reading the newspaper and doing some yoga afterwards.
Nearly unimpressed by the general euphoria caused by her presence in the office, Buffy prefers to take a nap in her elegently designed residence consisting of a huge dog bed and cowhide. As agency dog, she is defintely far more creative than others of her kind and she is easily thrilled by everything which can be kicked through the office by the foot of her choice. She is a self-marketing genius and perfected her “Play with me! Pleasepleaseplease…!” – facial expression which she uses quite successfully.
The best way to start my day?
Kicking Julia out of bed at 5.30 a.m. and collecting sticks, bark mulch and blades of grass outside – I am quite spontaneous. Chasing my collection for a while, having a snack and heading back to bed.
As experienced and successful Petfluencer, Mila is the perfect fit for our agency. In her day-to-day work as Head of Happiness, Mila’s tasks are clearly defined: galloping through the office joyfully and collecting as many cuddles as possible, thus putting a smile on everbody´s face. When nobody is watching, she tries to snitch Buffy’s food as inconspicuously as possible.
The best way to start my day?
Getting up briefly to have a quick bite and rushing to bed again, or in my case, disappearing in Christopher´s sports bag.
