Client Testimonials
Tony Wester SEO, Scotch and Soda Norden AB
”I’ve worked mainly with Fredrik and find him extremely knowledgeable in retail and very percipient in different situations. I’m also impressed that they can deliver so fast, and that’s probably because they have a huge network and don’t work with some old, dusty CV-archive. Anyone can identify qualifications reading a CV, but Fredrik and Inger-Mharie also have this awesome knowhow about personality, that makes them target exactly the right person for a job."
