Rabbit Hole Group C-Level Meeting from September 21–23, 2025, in Vienna

Rabbit Hole Group: C-Level Power Days in Vienna!

/in /by
2 Min.

Once a year: All top decision makers of the Rabbit Hole Group around one table – across all departments. In 2025, the C-Level team is not only treating itself to exciting topics, but also a really nice location: Vienna! From September 21 to 23, there will be three days of discussion, planning and making the future.

Three days full of strategy, innovation and networking

The big issues are tackled in four crisp working groups:

  • Digitization and integration from top to bottom
  • Fresh distribution models
  • New AI targets that pack a punch

The message right from the start: tech topics are a must – especially now, when the economic situation demands smart decisions more than ever. Especially in the sales area the course is set for the future. Since November 2024 Matthias has been at the helm here – and is bringing a breath of fresh air.

His approach: “How do I build a sales strategy that really works in the age of AI?”

AI in sales: more output with less input

Because one thing is clear: AI is the number one topic in the sales department when it comes to achieving more output with less input. Now is the time to cleverly combine knowledge and tools – so that sales figures not only remain stable, but really increase.

Of course we will keep you up to date here as always and will report on the event in detail!

AI takes care of the first step – humans provide the magic in the content

Efficiency meets emotion: how modern content marketing works

/in /by
2 Min.

After years of intensive practice with AI tools in text, image and video, we know pretty well where artificial intelligence shines – and where it still needs fine-tuning. Our conclusion: It’s all in the mix!

Because when used correctly, AI not only saves time and costs – it also enables genuine quality with personality. And that is precisely the key: semi-automated use of AI, combined with a human eye for detail.

How it works for us – example social media

Let’s take social media: AI can prepare a lot here. From text and graphics to video clips – the tools provide a solid foundation in a flash.

But blindly accepting everything is dangerous and is often immediately noticeable, which is why our team comes into play: our editors, graphic designers and video professionals check, delete or edit – depending on the platform, target group and tonality. This is how good input becomes great content. What makes it special: We work closely with our partner Rabbit Hole Group and link man and machine at all editorial interfaces – whether online or offline. This ensures that the content ends up exactly where it is supposed to: precisely tailored, stylish and coordinated across all media.

More time for ideas – we take care of the rest

What does that mean for you? Quite simply, you get a well-coordinated team that can not only operate AI, but really use it. You save time, retain full control over the quality – and your content gets the finishing touches that only real professionals can deliver.

We provide you with teams of experts who let the AI do the routine work – and concentrate on what really counts: Style, emotion, understanding your target group. And all this in a workflow that works. We promise!

A look back at an inspiring event with Yvonne and Karla :)

Between AI, data protection and digital freedom – the Rabbit Hole Bar Camp at the Mainstation

/in /by
4 Min.

What happens when sales experts, data protection nerds, AI enthusiasts and marketing heads end up in the same room? That’s right: there is intense discussion, questioning and forward thinking – and that’s exactly what happened at the Rabbit Hole Bar Camp – Mainstation. Between inspiring talks, coffee, post-its and lots of nerd power, everything revolved around the digital future.

Here is the summary of our little trip through the Rabbit Hole:

1. distribution in the digital jungle – smarter, not louder

“Selling was yesterday, data-driven is today.” This or something similar was the mantra of many sales professionals at the event. The main focus was on how to be heard in a world full of stimuli and competition – and how to do so with brains:

  • Data-driven sales: those who know their customers sell better. AI helps to understand target groups precisely.
  • Social selling: LinkedIn is more than a digital CV – it’s the new marketplace for trust and proximity.
  • Personalization: Off-the-shelf is a thing of the past. Customized offers bring better conversions and happy customers.

Interactive session with Yvonne on Europe's digital independence and European tech alternatives

2. data sovereignty – Europe wants to know

Bye bye Silicon Valley?
Not quite yet, but the Rabbit Hole showed that there is a great desire for European solutions. When it came to data protection in particular, it became clear that trust is gained by those who are independent.

  • GDPR-compliant and proud of it: more focus on European cloud services is not a trend, but a necessity.
  • Decentralization rocks: Open source tools are on the rise – away from monopolies and towards more freedom.
  • Trust through transparency: data protection becomes a real brand factor.

Discussion about effective marketing strategies and the influence of branding on performance

3. cyber security – trust is good, zero trust is better

At a time when phishing emails are getting smarter and hackers are getting more creative, you need more than just a good password:

  • Zero Trust principle: Every identity is checked first – whether human or machine.
  • AI against attacks: Whether phishing or ransomware – smart systems detect threats before they happen.
  • Cloud security: Anyone using the cloud needs clear protective measures – ideally with a system.

Insight into the workshops and presentations on AI, data protection and digital strategies.

4 AI – between hype and responsibility

Artificial intelligence is here to stay. But how do we integrate them into our working lives in a meaningful way without losing our humanity?

  • Automation with brains: from chatbots to CRM – AI simplifies many processes, saves time and resources.
  • Don’t forget ethics: Regulation is not a brake pad, but the safety net in an AI-driven world.
  • Man & machine: The question is not whether, but how they work together.

Karla presents exciting insights into AI investments and their economic impact.

5 Branding vs. performance – why not both?

There is often trench warfare in marketing: brand or direct conversions? The answer: both – with the right balance.

  • Long-term trust vs. short-term sales: If you only focus on quick clicks, you will miss out on sustainable brand building.
  • AI in marketing: analyses that tell you exactly what works – without having to look into a crystal ball.
  • Cookie-less future: The marketing world must find new ways to reach users – GDPR-compliant and creative.

The discussions from the workshops were continued in a relaxed atmosphere over dinner.

6 Europe digitally independent – reality or wishful thinking?

A hotly debated topic: How much do we actually depend on the tech giants from the USA? Answer: Still too much – but something is happening.

  • European alternatives are booming: Nextcloud, Tutanota & Co. are competing with Google and Microsoft.
  • Search engines without tracking: Qwant, DuckDuckGo or Ecosia as data-safe alternatives.
  • Open source as a game changer: the community is growing – and with it the trust in independent technologies.

Our conclusion:

The Rabbit Hole Bar Camp was not just an event – it was a wake-up call. For more digital responsibility, more European independence and a well thought-out integration of new technologies. It became clear: AI and automation are huge opportunities, but only if data protection, ethics and security are on board.

Rabbit Hole Group - Insights into digital solutions

A complete success: our first Rapid Hole Sales Department event

/in /by
2 Min.

Two months ago, the Rapid Hole Group began setting up its new sales department – and the first event was a complete success. Together with Anton Dollmeier and Matthias Brinkmann we invited potential partners, customers and committed members of the Rapid Hole Group to our premises in Nuremberg. Rapid Hole Group participated virtually.

Focus on best practices and B2B sales

The event was all about best practices, partnership-based exchange and the presentation of our approach to B2B sales. We shed light on how the Rapid Hole Group approaches customer projects in a structured manner, creates synergies between partners and always focuses on the greatest possible customer benefit. Questions about cooperation, contract design and general terms and conditions were also discussed openly and transparently. After an intensive first hour, virtual breakout sessions offered participants the opportunity to exchange ideas in small groups and discuss specific questions in greater depth. The response was clear: our community would like to see more events like this!

Topics of the future: AI, data analysis and practical workshops

In particular, topics such as AI-supported training, workshops on data analysis and practical solutions for the B2B sector were suggested by the participants as future focal points. The lively participation and inspiring discussions underline the high demand for innovative and partnership-based approaches in sales. The feedback motivates us to continue! We are already looking forward to the next event in February – stay tuned and join us!
