In dieser Episode des Kassenzone.de Podcasts begrüße ich Randolph Schröder von der Gebrüder Schröder GmbH, die unter anderem die Marke Löwe Original betreiben. Wir tauchen tief in die faszinierende Welt der Gartenscheren ein, die in meinen Augen zu den besten der Welt gehören. Randolfs Unternehmen, basierend in Flintbek, produziert hochwertige Scheren und vertreibt sie nicht nur in Deutschland, sondern in nahezu 100 Ländern weltweit. Besonders überrascht hat mich, dass trotz der herausragenden Qualität und der Innovationen in der Scherenproduktion die Marke Löwe Original kaum bekannt ist. Randolph erzählt von der Unternehmenshistorie, die vor über 100 Jahren begann, als sein Großvater die erste Ambossschere der Welt entwickelte. Diese innovative Scherenart revolutionierte das Schneiden im Gartenbau und hat bis heute keinen Vergleich in der Qualität. Wir diskutieren auch über die Herausforderungen, vor denen Löwe Original steht, wenn es darum geht, die Markenbekanntheit zu steigern und neue Vertriebskanäle zu erschließen. Dabei kommen wir auf Themen wie Amazon-Strategien, Kooperationen mit anderen Marken und die Entwicklung exklusiver Sondereditionen zu sprechen. Ein zentrales Thema unserer Unterhaltung ist die Frage, wie Randolph langfristig mehr Kunden erreichen kann. Wir sprechen darüber, ob der Weg über den Fachvertrieb, der traditionell stark ist, in Zukunft noch ausreicht, oder ob digitale Verkaufsstrategien notwendig sind, um im Hobbygärtnermarkt erfolgreich zu bleiben. Randolf gibt Einblicke in die Zukunft der Scherenproduktion und erzählt von den Herausforderungen der Mechanisierung und Automatisierung, die auch den professionellen Anbau betreffen. Besonders spannend ist die Diskussion über die verschiedenen Vertriebskanäle und die Strategien zur Markenförderung, insbesondere im Hinblick auf den Endanwendermarkt und die USA. Randolf teilt seine Überlegungen zur Nutzung von Influencer-Marketing und sozialen Medien, um die Marke bekannter zu machen, und wir diskutieren kreative Ansätze zur Ansprache neuer Zielgruppen.

This level of tracking ensures brands can identify which partnerships drive actual conversions and which don't.

These practices not only optimize budgets but also protect credibility and drive long-term results.
