Digital foundations and market entry for startups.
From the first digital step to successful market entry — we guide startups with practical advice and concrete action steps.
Startup advisory in Zurich — what do you really need? In the early phase of a startup, resources are scarce and decisions are consequential. Every wrong turn costs time and money. With the right advice, you avoid typical beginner mistakes and focus on what truly matters: a valid business model, the right channels, and a solid digital foundation.
DLM Digital advises startups in Switzerland practically and implementation-oriented. We help you validate your business model (before you invest too much money in the wrong direction), build the optimal digital infrastructure, and win your first customers through the right channels.

Free e-books
Three books. Less guesswork, more enquiries.
We do not just build pages — we build systems that bring in customers, and we think a few steps beyond launch day. What we have learned doing it is in these books. Pick what interests you; the PDFs arrive by email.
Please note: the e-books are written in German.
Frequently asked questions
As early as possible — ideally before the first major investment. Many startups seek advice only when they've already invested in the wrong direction. Good advice in the early phase saves a lot of time and money later. An initial consultation at DLM Digital is free and non-binding.
Validation means: Test your core assumptions (who buys, why, at what price) with minimal effort before building a complete product. Methods: Landing page with pre-orders, interviews with potential customers, small MVP. We guide you through this process and help ask the right questions.
We advise on pitch deck, story, and presentation — not on direct investor introductions. We help you clearly formulate your value proposition, present the right numbers, and anticipate typical investor questions. Network introductions are outside our offering.
Accelerators take an equity stake and offer a structured program over several months. Our advisory is independent, without equity participation, and tailored directly to your specific situation. You pay for the time you actually need — without fixed programs or equity shares.
