Our Handprint:

EcoQuent models marketing as a tool for system change.

My Mission:
Help small businesses create an eco handprint.
And channel more money and momentum to organizations saving people and planet.
Hi! I’m Nicole.
EcoQuent is a one-woman business, and I’m the woman behind it.
2002, I started working for a better world.
EcoQuent was born in 2015.
But news on the state of our planet & its people became ever more bleak. As a solo activist entrepreneur, I felt utterly powerless.
Have you ever struggled with eco-anxiety & fear of the future?
I have. BIG time.
And I had to make a choice:
Go offline. Or reimagine my role in the big picture.
I’m still here because I found help and a sense of belonging.
Thanks to Carbon Literacy, Climate Fresk & my online ecosystem,
I got to go all-in on marketing as a tool for system change.
Now, I help solopreneurs & teams send messages of hope, activism & community.
And I’ve joined talents with some of the best of them:
Experts in translation, UX writing, reporting, social media, design & inclusive communication join talents for your sustainable project.
It takes a planet to save the world.
That’s why hyper-collaboration is at the core of what working with EcoQuent looks like:
One competent contact person.
And if you need it, a custom team to take your project to the finish line.
We pride ourselves on expertise and experience:
Every process and tool we use has been tried, tested, and poked with a stick.
The same, minus the stick, goes for my partners and the aid projects I recommend.
My focus as your sustainable marketing scout:
Make you fall in love with the process and spark inspired optimism for your role in the big picture.
Last but not least:
I’ll make you feel seen, heard, and excited about the space between where you are and where you want to be.
EcoQuent’s Impact Forest.
How your project with us creates a world of change:
You hire us: We plant a tree.
You recommend us: We plant a tree.
And upon every project completion: We happy-dance. And plant a tree.
For every month in business, EcoQuent pays to restore a piece of wetland.
Every team birthday and business anniversary adopts a stretch of coastal mangrove forest.
And 3% of every retainer contract goes to social charity projects.
Carbon Footprint: mini
The bigger the business, the higher its toll on the planet and people:
Ressources. Emissions. Compromises.
But what if our businesses had a built-in source of Good?
Since 2018, EcoQuent has been 100% digital.
Meetings.
Bureaucracy.
And quarterly client updates on our collective handprint.
2019, I went all-in on digital networking, keynotes, and workshops.
There is one exception:
If you need me on site, my electric car has been to Spain, Austria, Switzerland, France, and all over Germany.
Sustainability is my core value for EcoQuent:
We’ve been a Climate Action Workforce since 2021.
I track and offset the carbon emissions this website creates via this certified forest project.
EcoQuent electricity is 100 % regenerative, B-Corp certified, and supports small-scale e-collectives.
My web host is certified zero-emission.
Privacy is a human right: This website runs without cookies.
And I do all things money via the most sustainable bank in Germany: GLS.
Eco Handprint: MAXI
What is an eco-handprint?
The good you do grows beyond your direct range of impact.
When you inspire business partners.
When you publish your path to empower your network.
When your industry copies your sustainable pioneer work.
Together, we’re growing the GOOD:
We work exclusively with green-hearted people, from freelance creatives to start-ups to common good associations.
By vetting our clients and their business trajectories, we impact all 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in a second—and third-degree capacity.
Pro bono projects:
One working day per month I donate towards pioneer initiatives:
As a speaker for digital events and strategic support for non-profit organizations.

That’s what the Coffee Chat is for:
30 minutes, no charge, ask me anything.
Let’s talk first steps, milestones, and marketing strategy.
Once we have a plan in place, you’ll receive a custom contract.
For non-profit projects and charitable organizations, we work out a pay-what-you-can.
