Find out more about the intertwining of sustainability and marketing in the Ruess Group Magazine.

In our politically and economically increasingly volatile world, in which environmental and social responsibility are becoming more and more important, companies need to rethink and adapt their position as social players. This includes taking a clear stance on sustainability. Sustainability should not only be understood as an ethical imperative, but can also be used as a decisive competitive advantage from an economic perspective. In order to fully develop its effectiveness here, it is important that sustainable corporate management, sustainability strategy and marketing are well interlinked.

CRSD & sustainability reporting obligations | Ruess Group

The CSRD reporting obligation? Isn’t it only applicable for the 2024 financial year, or 2026, or even 2028? In any case, there’s still time, or is there? What exactly applies? For whom and as of when?

Let’s start at the beginning. The CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) is an EU directive. It requires companies to report on their own impact on the environment and society, as well as the relevance of sustainability factors for the company. Standardised key figures are used to ensure measurability and comparability. And, as with financial reports, these sustainability reports need to be audited externally. 

The CSRD reporting requirements apply in stages:

From the 2024 financial year: Public companies with over 500 employees.

From the 2025 financial year: All other large companies.

From the 2026 financial year: Capital market-oriented SMEs (with certain exemptions until 2028).

What is Composable Commerce and why do we use it?

There are many shops worldwide that decided to go with composable commerce. Suppose we need to offer one answer that sums up all those people and their expectations of composable commerce. In that case, it's the greater flexibility and scalability in the development, and easy maintenance of an e-commerce platform.

But, one of the key benefits is that composable commerce allows different platform parts to be developed, updated, and scaled - independently.

In this article, we will thoroughly explain the connection between composable commerce and microservices, which are independent, modular units of functionality. 

Actually, microservices that can be developed, tested, and deployed independently, make all the changes in an easy approach of maintaining the platform updated at all times.

As a member of the GWA (Association of leading German agencies), the Ruess Group is one of the leading agencies in Baden-Württemberg. We look forward to advising you.

On 1 July 2023, Google is discontinuing Universal Analytics. Online marketers are faced with a decision: Google Analytics 4 vs Matomo.

UA, GA4, Matomo & GDPR: The key questions about Google Analytics

Doing nothing is not an option: On 1 July 2023, Google is discontinuing Analytics. Online marketers are faced with a decision: Google Analytics 4 vs Matomo.

Only in retrospect does it become clear how simple things once were. All you had to do was say “Google Analytics” and everyone knew what you meant. And “data protection” was still an abstract issue. 

Those days will soon be gone. And a distinction is being made between Google “Universal” Analytics and Google Analytics “4”. Or between “UA” and “GA4”. And then, one will be switched off and the other will have to be implemented. And paying attention to “cookie-free” – and possibly even “server-side”-tracking may be required. 

But before throwing yourself into the fray and implementing code snippets, perhaps we should all take a step back. Afterall, “GA” isn’t the only available analytics tool. And for many website operators, it’s not even the best. Why? Here, we attempt to answer this question as concisely and clearly as possible, based on key questions.
