elbdudler GmbH

elbdudler GmbH is a creative agency headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, that specializes in contemporary digital brand communication. Founded in 2009, the agency has established itself as a significant player in the German advertising landscape, focusing on building and maintaining long-term relationships between brands and consumers within the social and digital web. The company's core mission is to deliver meaningful and effective marketing solutions, moving beyond superficial creativity to achieve tangible results for its clients. Their service portfolio is comprehensive, spanning digital strategy, including consulting, brand and channel strategy, campaign conception, and content marketing. In the realm of creation, elbdudler offers digital content production, motion design, photo and video production, as well as copywriting and editorial services. The agency possesses deep expertise in social media management, covering everything from initial concept development and community building to ongoing management and crisis handling.

A key differentiator for elbdudler has been its progressive and unique company philosophy, which is deeply embedded in its operations. This includes a commitment to transparency, competence over hierarchy, and a collaborative environment. This approach has not only attracted a diverse range of clients, including major brands like Volkswagen Financial Services, Persil, Edeka, and Lindt, but also a dedicated team of professionals. In late 2024, elbdudler was acquired by the Danish Obsidian Group, a move that marks a new chapter in the agency's growth. This strategic partnership is expected to enhance elbdudler's capabilities and provide an international platform for expansion. Under the continued leadership of its managing partners, the agency, now operating as a subsidiary of the Obsidian Group, continues to innovate from its unique office space—a converted church in Hamburg's Eimsbüttel district. The integration into the Obsidian Group, a network of specialized agencies, positions elbdudler to offer even more holistic and internationally-oriented digital marketing services.
