Summary

Hello from the North!

I'm Hakan and the face behind Ersu Consulting GmbH and even more important – I have a mission: not just to scale companies for the long term, but also to bring fresh air into the coaching & marketing "bubble"!

"Host a webinar", "Just make more calls", "Just sell them something", "Your pace is just whack", "Your content is trash" and more... I just can't listen to it anymore!

Phrases like that or quick-rich methods from gurus are a dime a dozen, but you don't need those, you need honest advice instead!

Why? Because I know the ups and downs of agencies, freelancers and self-employed people from my own experience inside out. From the repositioned "one-stop-shop business" to sleepless nights, lack of structure, irregular retainers and finally "stomachache clients".

That's exactly what I went through as a "jack of all trades".

After a year of frustration, I decided to make a change, turned my marketing agency making millions upside down, set up systems, took it to a new level at rocket speed and finally hit the first million € without any "fancy gimmick tutorials"!

Since other agencies and coaches got excited about these successes, I decided to share all my strategies and launched the brand AgencyRocket.

With this and more trainings, over 350+ entrepreneurs have been able to scale their business to high six- and seven-figure annual revenues.

Our successes? Listen to them in our client testimonials and see for yourself!

I am not a business guru in an ivory tower who gives you empty promises.

You won't get theoretical solutions or some run-of-the-mill pseudo coaching from us!

Authenticity and expertise are our values and far from lip service.

Are you looking for a partner who gets you, thinks along and rolls up their sleeves? Then you've come to the right place!

Our goal: To act as an incubator for self-employed & B2B entrepreneurs, helping them scale sustainably without constantly putting out fires.

From consulting to brand building, funnels & advertising – we are your holistic experience sparring partner with certified, award-winning hands-on expertise & quality!

Predictable client acquisition & scaling. Less time, better structures & more profit margin! And more.
