GMA is the global / international marketing agency treating this city as a buyer-evaluation problem inside market-entry marketing. The work is the local-market website, proof order, offer language, SEO/AI visibility, paid path, and follow-up a foreign or outbound company needs before serious buyers move.
US sales and marketing system fuer CEOs and Geschaeftsfuehrer at Vienna-headquartered firms running a US subsidiary, a recent US acquisition, or direct outbound into the United States. CEE-gateway positioning rewritten into a register the American buyer lands as a peer.
The US subsidiary is operating. Or the US acquisition just closed. Or direct outbound into US accounts is running from Vienna. Something moved from plan to execution, and the first hard data is back. US revenue is not following the Austrian model. The site judges competently. The deck is precise. Pipeline volume is fine. Conversion is not. The pipeline that worked across DACH and CEE does not convert in America.
The instinct is to hire a US sales head. The logic is clean. The US needs a US commercial leader, so hire one. The problem is that the hire inherits the frame the Vienna firm hands them. The website, the deck, the outbound, the follow-up cadence, the EUR price list, the owner's own public register, all of it. The frame is the problem. The US sales head cannot sell out of it, and within twelve months usually attrites.
American buyers filter in the first twenty seconds on three signals: category anchor, outcome claim, and US peer set. The Vienna register runs on engineering depth, certification weight, and a CEE-gateway story that lands well across DACH and CEE. The CEE-gateway frame is the largest single break. To the US buyer it lands as regional positioning, not category leadership. The work is to rebuild the US website, proof, offer, and follow-up before or in parallel with the US commercial hire, so that the hire inherits a frame that can carry them.
The Austrian engineering proof is real. The CEE-gateway story does not move it in America. The system is the thing to fix first. House view on Vienna operator entry into the US
The company is not the problem. The leader is not the problem. The US buyer path is, and the buyer path can be fixed.
Six to ten weeks. Single US category, single corridor. GMA rewrites the offer, proof, price story, website, and sales material for the American buyer, then launches the work. Common first engagement when a US subsidiary or direct outbound is in flight.
See the Sprint →Three to six months. Multi-channel US rebuild and run. Ads, website, search, sales pages, follow-up, and sales material. The standard shape for Vienna operators committed to US scale and preparing for or supporting a US commercial hire.
See the Build →Monthly retainer, twelve-month minimum. Ongoing rebuild-and-run across multiple US website, deck, and sales materials. Typical for Vienna operators running several US product lines, multiple US subsidiaries, or post-acquisition integration of a US brand.
See the Partnership →No legal services. No GmbH, AG, or US entity formation. No L-1, E-2, EB-5, or O-1 visa work. No US tax structuring, FATCA analysis, or Austrian-US double-taxation treaty analysis. No US banking introductions. No fiduciary services. No regulatory licensing, FDA submissions, MDR conformity, or US securities work. No IP filing. No contract drafting. No US recruiting or executive search. No M&A transaction work.
These belong with Austrian counsel who specialise in US entry, with US counsel on the American side, and with regulatory consultants who handle FDA and MDR pathways. GMA works inside the parameters they set. When a marketing decision carries legal, tax, or regulatory implications, GMA flags it and defers before execution.
The Vienna register is engineering-first, credential-weighted, and built on a CEE-gateway narrative. The US buyer expectations is category-first, outcome-weighted, and indifferent to regional gateway positioning. The work is not to dilute the Austrian voice, it is to carry a second voice for US website, deck, and sales materials and conversations. The home-market brand keeps its TUEV, ISO, BME, and AIT markers in full. The US-facing site, deck, outbound, follow-up cadence, and owner/CEO LinkedIn are rebuilt to lead with the category, the outcome, and the US peer set. Both voices operate in parallel. The Geschaeftsfuehrer learns which register belongs to which conversation.
Medtech operators inside the BME and AIT cluster, including diagnostics, imaging, surgical-device, and digital-health firms, industrials with US customers or US plants, engineering-commercial firms running engineer-led US go-to-market, and technical B2B firms selling into US enterprise. Fit is checked against the concrete US move, not published sector lists.
Yes. A US subsidiary is a new website, deck, and sales material the Vienna firm launches in America, so the work is to build a US category anchor, a US peer set, and a US outcome claim the subsidiary can stand on. A US acquisition inherits a category, a customer base, and a brand, so the work is to decide what of the acquired sales and marketing system to keep, what to absorb into the Vienna firm's identity, and where to let the acquired brand operate on its own voice. Both routes start from the same inquiry screening.
Often it is the wrong first move. The US sales head inherits the frame the Vienna firm hands them. If the frame is a CEE-gateway website, an engineering-led deck, EUR-priced quotes, and a follow-up cadence built for an Austrian buyer, the US sales head spends the first year inside a broken sales system and usually attrites. The sequence that works is to rebuild the US website, proof, offer, and follow-up first, then hire the US commercial leader into a frame that can carry them.
With an inquiry through the contact form and an inquiry screening. GMA runs three engagements: Market-Entry Marketing Sprint (6 to 10 weeks), Cross-Border Marketing Build (3 to 6 months), or Global Marketing Partnership (monthly retainer, 12-month minimum). GMA confirms fit and pricing after the inquiry screening. Public prices are not listed. Vienna operator engagements often begin as a Sprint when one US category is in play, and as a Build when multi-channel US sales and marketing system is the scope.

See engagements →If the market is not responding, the first question is simple: what is the buyer not seeing, trusting, or doing yet?
| Action that should happen | The buyer should request a quote, ask for a call, send an RFQ, move a proposal forward, or hand the work to the right internal person. |
| What may be unclear | If that is not happening, the market may not understand the category, proof, offer, price, channel, service answer, or follow-up. |
| What to inspect | Check the page, sales deck, product proof, offer language, contact path, and follow-up before adding more traffic or more distributors. |
| Next step | If the break is commercial, continue to /engagements/ or /contact/#inquiry. |
