Q1 2026

The first quarter of 2026 marked a strong start to the year for Partner & Söhne : With a new client in the healthcare sector, our designation as a Google Premium Partner, and strategic annual meetings with existing clients, we have laid the groundwork for a successful year.

Launch of the partnership with the Munich Pasing Cardiology Center

We are pleased to welcome the Munich Pasing Cardiology Center as a new client. The newly established private practice, led by Dr. Vera Schneider and Prof. Dr. Jakob Ledwoch, specializes in prevention and longevity, as well as women’s cardiology and modern cardiological care for existing medical conditions. 

The collaboration began with comprehensive practice consulting, including appointment scheduling systems, information architecture, and optimizing the website for the technical foundations of SEO, GEO, and the promotion of the services offered. From the website’s launch, special attention was paid to ensuring data quality compliant with the German Health Services Act (HWG) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) through the implementation of server-side tracking.

Google Ads & Tracking Audit for the Ignite Group

The Ignite Group guides companies through the process of securing grants, from the initial idea to disbursement and beyond. In the first quarter, they commissioned us to conduct a comprehensive review of their existing Google Ads. As part of an audit, we analyzed the campaign structure, ad quality, and performance and developed specific recommendations for further improvement. This kind of external perspective reveals areas of potential and lays the foundation for campaigns that deliver long-term results.

To provide a comprehensive assessment of the current status, we looked beyond the ad networks to examine the tracking infrastructure and the processes that take place after a contact form is submitted.

On-site visit to CITYDECKS

Much of what makes a company unique can only be fully appreciated in person and cannot be replicated through an online meeting. That’s why we took the opportunity in the first quarter to visit CITY DECKS® with the entire team. During a tour of the office, warehouse, and production facilities, we were able to see the products up close and gain insight into daily operations. 

These kinds of meetings are especially valuable to us: personal interaction and firsthand experience with processes and products deepen our mutual understanding and have a positive impact on our day-to-day collaboration.

Google Premium Partner Status 2026

At the beginning of the year, we received a special distinction: Partner & Söhne is a Google Premium Partner for 2026. Premium Partner status is the highest level in the Google Partner Program and is awarded annually only to the top three percent of agencies that rank among the best in their country. The evaluation is based on three factors: the performance of the campaigns we manage, the growth in the volume of ads we manage, and stability through long-term client relationships. 

This award validates our approach: thinking sustainably and working for the long term.

Annual planning and meetings with clients

The start of the year is traditionally also a time for strategic planning. In the first quarter, we therefore held annual planning meetings with numerous clients to jointly set the course for 2026: What goals should be achieved? Which channels and initiatives are the focus? Where is there untapped potential? 

These discussions are a central part of our collaboration and underscore our commitment to providing proactive support rather than reacting to situations.

News from the Partner & Söhne team

In addition to our day-to-day work, we made a point of setting aside time for team activities last quarter. With VR experiences and good food in Mannheim, we were able to enjoy a welcome break from our daily work routine.
