Anyone who knows Annette knows that she never stands still. She has been actively shaping change in the media industry at Staffel Medien AG for 20 years. When she started in 2005, Facebook and YouTube were still new – today she heads Marconivox, our Content Creation Unit, which has been delivering fresh content for the digital world since September 2024. We spoke to her about formative experiences, the transformation of the industry and her view of the future of media communication. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Thank you very much. After the birth of our children, it was the ideal return to work for me. I started with administrative tasks, soon built up the marketing department and found my place. The graphics industry was new territory - but the learning was worth it. Today, I support Ralf in the management and I am proud of how we have developed - especially digitally with the founding of Marconivox. And even after 20 years, I still really enjoy my work! <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The biggest change has clearly been digitalization. When I started at Staffel Medien, print was still the main medium - today, a large part of communication takes place digitally. Media consumption has changed completely and many print shops have had to close. For us, this meant not standing still, but moving with the times. We expanded our range, looked for new ways - and found them. I am very proud that we now have a strong digital position in addition to printing. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Marconivox is a real passion project for me. We've been producing digital content at Staffel Medien for a long time, but it wasn't really noticed. With Marconivox, we now have our own stage where we can show what we can do - creatively, digitally and with a lot of storytelling. I'm particularly proud of our dedicated team - with a lot of passion and humor, we've built something that really works - that's what makes Marconivox so special for me. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
