Digital Freestyle // Transformation // Visibility

Digital Rebel

Head of Marketing, IT coordination and development at cetrac GmbH, Leipzig

I call it Digital Freestyle: digital transformation without a briefing. I see where a process gets stuck, build the fix and measure what it delivers. ERP, warehouse and stocktaking, AI workflows, websites and online stores, plus visibility through SEO, SEA, AEO and GEO and the design that goes with it.

Digital Freestyle // attitude

Digital transformation is everybody's business

It rarely fails because of the software. It fails because nobody pushes it.

In almost every company people know which processes take too long. What is missing is the person who names the bottleneck, builds the first prototype and stays with it until it is actually used day to day. That is my role, and I have a name for it: Digital Freestyle.

01

Observe

Follow the real process, not the org chart. Where is data retyped, searched for, created twice?

02

Name it

Put the bottleneck into numbers, so the decision is not a matter of taste.

03

Build

A working prototype instead of a concept paper. Better something usable in two weeks.

04

Operate

Put it into operation, measure, refine. A system nobody uses is effort, not a project.

More about Digital Freestyle

No specification, no six months of lead time, but looking closely, spotting the bottleneck and starting to build from a standing start. At cetrac GmbH I am a one-person digital department: strategy, delivery and quality assurance in one pair of hands, with AI agents as the tool.

Most of the projects on this site were never commissioned. I saw the problem and started. Freestyle does not mean unplanned: the order is fixed, only the outcome is not, and things get built while others are still aligning.

Transformation

What I move in companies

cetrac // warehouse and stocktaking

Stocktaking app: every phone becomes a scanner

Every company phone becomes a scanner, the count is signed on the device, the figures go straight into the ERP. Built in-house, in live testing since September 2026.

Read more

Colleagues used to head out with pen and paper to count many thousands of parts. Today the app turns any company phone into a scanner, the counting record is signed on the device and the figures go straight into the ERP system. Stock is live every evening and on the website every morning. Built in-house, without new hardware. In live testing in the warehouse since September 2026.

cetrac // TYPO3 12

Relaunch of cetrac.com

New information architecture, new category and product structure, Solr search in the store. Concept, coordination and quality assurance on my side.

Read more

A new information architecture, a re-cut category and product structure, Solr-backed search in the store. A site grown over years became one that customers in 42 countries can navigate. Redesign together with Philipp Schade and Stephan Gonder, with concept, coordination and quality assurance on my side.

cetrac // 7 languages

Seven language versions single-handedly

Five languages live editorially, with AI support in the TYPO3 backend. Market adaptation instead of translation. One person, seven language versions.

cetrac // 2026 catalogue

A custom generator pipeline in Python and WeasyPrint: 68 parts, 324 vector graphics, a print-ready CMYK PDF from one data source. When an article changes the catalogue changes, with nobody resetting a page by hand. Weeks of layout work became a single run.

Visibility 3.0 // SEO, SEA, AEO, GEO

Visible where people search today: including AI answers

For cetrac.com I built visibility in AI search systems from zero. The curve shows in how many answers from ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews, Copilot and Perplexity the domain is named as a source.

How SEO, SEA, AEO and GEO work together

Roles

Which role you book me in is your decision

The tasks overlap anyway: whoever digitises processes needs the numbers behind them, and whoever is responsible for visibility has to be able to design.

Data Analyst

Metrics from analytics, Search Console, ads and CRM in one place, updated automatically instead of collected by hand each month.

AI Manager

Orchestrating AI agents for research, copy, data preparation and review. Humans still decide.

Digital Transformation Manager

Digitalising processes, ERP and warehouse, from analysis through to running operations.

SEO, SEA, AEO and GEO

Visibility in classic search, paid search and AI answers, treated as one job.

Creative Strategist

Positioning, campaign idea and brand message, through to an investor pitch that actually raises money.

Communication Designer

Corporate design, design systems, screen and type design. Degree-qualified, 20 years of practice.

Languages

Trilingual: Spanish, German, English

ESSpanish
DEGerman
ENEnglish

Not only in conversation but in the product: I set up seven language versions of cetrac.com editorially on my own, and the EasyFlow Suite in seven languages including Hebrew with right-to-left layout.

How I approach international markets

No literal translation but market adaptation, with dedicated keyword research per target market, clean hreflang and contacts on the ground. People search differently in Spain than in Germany, and a site that ignores that will not be found there.
