Clients and references

My clients are mainly small and medium-sized companies but also individual departments and subsidiaries of larger corporations.

For clients who don’t have their own documentation department, I can take on all technical documentation and communication tasks. In addition, I often write accompanying technical texts, such as texts for brochures and websites. For clients who write their technical documentation by themselves, I provide selective consulting on conceptual, didactical, and technical issues. In addition, I take on individual subtasks or subprojects to reduce my clients’ workload.

Upon request, I’ll be happy to send you a detailed project list of all clients who have agreed to act as references.

Testimonials

“… we are very happy with your results … I would like to emphasize particularly positively that when writing the manuals you also ask yourself whether the software has been developed with usability in mind and that you give feedback in this regard if functions are difficult to understand or even faulty.
