In 2012, the Jena-based e-commerce agency dotSource recorded with a total annual turnover of 4.3 million Euros a sales growth of 10 percent compared to 2011. The number of permanent employees remained constant with 60 employees.
The business success of the agency is a result of the increased demand for e-commerce and social commerce solutions. Especially in the branches publishing, fashion and jewelry, dotSource achieved to lead major projects to success.
For Swarovski, a manufacturer, marketer and retailer of high quality jewelry, dotSource realized the technical integration of a new design concept for the corporate website swarovski.com. The agency also supported the American jewelry manufacturer Chamilia in the development of its online shop. Here, dotSource integrated a jewelry configurator and a blog. With the re-design and implementation of veritas.at, the website of Austria’s largest textbook publisher, and the re-launch of cornelsen.de dotSource could put two more major projects in the publishing industry on the path of success.
A milestone in the young company history was the move to the newly renovated loft office in Building 29 in Jena. At its new location in Goethestraße 1, dotSource welcomed the mayor of the town of Jena, Dr. Albrecht Schröter, and the Thuringian Minister President. Christine Lieberknecht was very taken that dotSource as an important German e-commerce agency created something new at a historic location. This, as she said, would provide further appeal to the economic strength of the city of Jena and its e-commerce sector in particular.
The agency places great emphasis on the interaction between entrepreneurship and exploration. As a training company and partner of many universities in Thuringia, dotSource is well connected with the educational institutions of the region. Besides awarding practical bachelor and master theses, dotSource offers students the opportunity to publish the results of their work on the company’s research platform www.dotsource.de/labs.
Als einer der größten Arbeitgeber im Bereich E-Commerce in Jena konnte dotSource inklusive Auszubildender, Werkstudenten und Praktikanten auf nun insgesamt 87 Mitarbeiter anwachsen, davon sind 60 Mitarbeiter festangestellt.
Mit dieser überdurchschnittlich positiven Bilanz geht die dotSource in das neue Jahr, für welches das Unternehmen erneut ein deutliches Wachstum anstrebt.
