The NAYOKI GROUP story_

Constant
Flexible

2004
2008

The NAYOKI Group was established nearly 20 years ago in 2004 by André Soulier. Soulier began his professional journey in online marketing in the USA, working for key lead generation firms such as Leadcreations LLC and One2One Interactive LLC, where he was not just an employee but also an entrepreneurial mind. He raised the initial capital for establishing NAYOKI GmbH through the sale of his shares.

With knowledge of strategies and metrics from the pioneering US digital marketing market, NAYOKI quickly established itself in the German market. Renowned clients such as Samsung, BMW Bank, Tele2, and GFK, who remains a client to this day, propelled the agency to become a significant player in the field of lead generation, achieving a seven-figure fee turnover. This success story unfolded at a time when Google was still in its infancy, and Facebook had not yet come into existence.

In 2008, NAYOKI achieved a significant milestone through a majority acquisition by Bertelsmann AG, integrating into the service company Arvato. This strategic move professionalized our legal data protection processes and technical structures, solidifying our position as a leading Lead Generation agency in Germany. Notable clients such as Proctor & Gamble and Unilever further enhanced our reputation.

2010
2016

By 2010, Bertelsmann AG acquired all shares, propelling NAYOKI into a new era. And with this, NAYOKI evolved further, transforming into a full-service performance marketing agency specializing in key areas such as SEA, SEO, affiliate and email marketing, as well as display advertising. In that same year, we proudly partnered with Adler Modemärkte, our first client, who remains with us today, delivering comprehensive support across all channels. NAYOKI also honed its expertise, delving into sophisticated and challenging sectors such as beauty, fashion, and lifestyle. Our collaboration with Arvato's e-Commerce division allowed us to enhance our e-Commerce capabilities. Consequently, we established three distinct pillars within the NAYOKI service portfolio: Performance Marketing, Lead Generation, and Marketing Technology.

The evolution into a comprehensive omnichannel agency was not feasible within the corporate structure as it stood. Therefore, in 2014, NAYOKI underwent a management buyout led by its founder, André Soulier, re-establishing itself as an owner-managed agency group.

2016
2018

In 2016, ADDFAME emerged as one of Germany's pioneering agencies solely dedicated to Influencer Marketing. Successful Influencer Marketing was only achievable through the seamless fusion of creativity and content, data and technology, and a well-established network of influencers, all underpinned by professional relationship management. Alongside Stephan Fehske, ADDFAME swiftly rose to become one of Germany's top influencer agencies. Recognizing the industry's demand, we decided to expand our digitally-centered model, incorporating media strategy, planning, and purchasing. This expansion allowed us to provide our clients with a holistic Full-Funnel approach. In 2018, under the leadership of Frederik Schott, NAYOKI MEDIAPLUS, a joint venture, was established in collaboration with SERVICEPLAN-GRUPPE SE, Europe's leading independent agency group. Steering the helm of this venture, Christof Baron assumed responsibility for the strategic evolution of our agency's product.

Through our partnership with the MEDIAPLUS Group, we seamlessly merged the expertise of over 500 media specialists and a purchasing volume exceeding 1 billion Euros (Source: Comvergence, 2021) with NAYOKI's digital performance DNA. This combination of services under one roof was the only one of its kind on the German market.
