Lokera

I’m Finn, and I run a marketing agency targeting local businesses in Germany. One of the most common objections I kept hearing wasn’t about price, it was:

“We already have more work than we can handle. We need more employees.”

So I thought: Why not actually offer them what they need?

I started helping my clients attract and hire more employees. In the process, we built software that made a huge difference in how I delivered the service - from reducing manual work to giving clients a much better experience.

The model worked extremely well for me. And with the huge demand for workers in Germany, I realized there was a much bigger opportunity here.

Most marketing agencies already help businesses generate more customers. Very few help them generate the employees they need to serve those customers.

So we decided to turn the software we built for ourselves into a product - and Lokera was born.
