Relaunch for an M&A boutique – with a clear path to the mandate.

A modernised brand, a new website and a well-thought-out funnel: the website is set to become CNX’s most important channel for mandate enquiries.

CNX Transaction Partners is an M&A boutique with offices in Munich and Amsterdam. Since 2010, the team has guided owner-managed companies through their sale – from preparation to closing.

The challenge

Plenty of substance – but no clear path to the mandate.

The previous website had grown over the years: lots of text, three languages and a look that didn’t match the depth of the advisory work. CNX’s real strength – thorough preparation long before the sale process – barely came across.

No real funnel: Clear calls to action were missing – from the first visit to the mandate enquiry.

Method not visible: The firm’s own approach, “Clarify. Navigate. Exit.”, wasn’t explained anywhere.

Person instead of brand: Much revolved around the founder. The new website was to put CNX as a brand and method front and centre – with the founder as its face.

Our solution

Brand, structure, funnel – all of a piece.

01 · Brand

Carefully modernised

Kept the word mark, modernised the typography, added “Clarify. Navigate. Exit.” as a tagline and defined a clear colour palette of dark blue, sand and beige.

02 · Structure

Clear site architecture

Two core services instead of a portfolio list: exit readiness and company sale – with descriptive URLs and a flat page structure.

03 · Funnel

Two routes to a conversation

Exit readiness check and webinar as clear entry points for business owners – visible on every page and tailored to the target group.

04 · System

Built for self-maintenance

A consistent design system with reusable components – bilingual and maintainable by the CNX team without a developer.

The result

From a wall of text to a boutique brand – on every device.

Less text, more clarity: the new website shows method, team and attitude – and guides business owners straight to a conversation.
