Trusted by ambitious Dutch brands expanding into Germany
THE CHALLENGE
Expanding to Germany Sounds Simple.
Until You Actually Start.
Most Dutch brands underestimate the complexity of the German market. Here's what typically goes wrong without the right guidance.
Complex Compliance Requirements
German marketplace regulations, packaging laws (LUCID, EPR) and tax obligations can be overwhelming. Getting them wrong can shut you down before you start.
Localization Beyond Translation
Translating your listings isn't enough. German buyers have different expectations, search behaviors, and conversion triggers than Dutch consumers.
Wasted Ad Spend
Running Amazon Ads without understanding German keyword dynamics and competition leads to burned budgets with minimal return.
Agency Dependency
Traditional agencies take control of your account, lock you into retainers, and you never build the knowledge to operate independently.
Slow Time to Market
Without a clear roadmap, brands spend months figuring out the basics instead of launching and generating revenue.
No Local Network
No connections to German marketplace contacts, fulfillment partners, or compliance experts means you're building from zero.
In-House First
Build marketplace knowledge and operations inside your team. No external dependency. You own every part of the process.
Execution, Not Just Theory
This isn't theory. It's structured implementation with expert feedback, regular check-ins and real submissions reviewed by native specialists.

RESULTS
What Our Clients Say
"Valuable Onboarding & Strategic Support. Highly grateful for the valuable support during the onboarding process and beyond. Definitely recommended. They know what they're doing and look beyond just Amazon."
Wojtek Sierszynski
Owner of VANN Bottles
"The way to go for Bol to Amazon.de. Absolute recommended! When entering the German market (Amazon.de), they supported us exceptionally well. After becoming a successful sales partner on bol, they guided us through the right steps to also succeed on Amazon, something we simply couldn't have achieved without their expertise. After trying to enter the German market ourselves last year, we realized just how challenging it is and how different it is from bol. Max and Jakob did an amazing job helping us take the right steps this time!"

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is the InDEpendent offer?
InDEpendent is a guided expansion service designed for Dutch DTC e-commerce brands that want to enter and scale in Germany. It combines hands-on expert support, strategic feedback and a complete resource library, all focused on helping you build marketplace operations in-house.
Who is this for?
The program is built for Dutch e-commerce brand founders and teams who want to sell on Amazon.de and other German marketplaces. Whether you're launching from scratch or optimizing an existing presence, if you want to build in-house capabilities instead of relying on agencies, this is for you.
How much time do I need to invest per week?
We recommend (minimum) dedicating 5-10 hours per week to implementation. The service is designed as a done-with-you partnership. We provide the strategy, feedback and resources, but the actual implementation is on your side.
Do you do everything for us?
No, and that's by design. We only work in a done-with-you model, not done-for-you. We guide, support and review your work, but you execute. This way, you build real in-house expertise and never become dependent on an external agency.
Which marketplaces do you cover?
The service starts with Amazon.de as the primary marketplace. Once your Amazon foundation is solid, we help you create/execute a strategic roadmap for expanding to other German marketplaces like OTTO, Kaufland and more.
Is this a long-term partnership?
Absolutely. That's what we aim for. After the initial phase, you can continue with ongoing access to all elements, including expert calls, feedback submissions, events and partner benefits. We want to be your long-term partner for the German market.
Do I need to speak German?
No. Everything is delivered in English. All your work is reviewed by native German specialists and with their feedback you can be 100% confident the results are the same as if we did it for you. You focus on building your business, we make sure the German side is spot on.
What's the free 1:1 Expansion Audit?
It's a free 1:1 strategy session where we discuss your goals, assess your readiness for the German market, define priorities, and map out concrete next steps. There's no commitment, it's designed to give you clarity on your expansion opportunity.
