Tech Agency 4eck Media – What we do

You can do a thousand things – or specialize and do the right thing. We stay focused and develop ourselves day by day in these four core competencies:

Ringer, our agency dog

Matthias and Stefan Petri

We distinguish ourselves by what we do. And we achieve this through:

A disciplined team
Goal orientation & focus
Most modern (AI) tools & data-driven workflows
Agile Project Management
We are a quiet agency – no noise, just impact. Based in Waren (Müritz) and internationally effective. We consciously take on only a few mandates at a time and work as if the project were our own. Measurable results for partners who think and act like we do: self-reliantly and entrepreneurially.

Our company culture

Mutual trust, a strong commitment, and an optimistic approach – these three pillars enable us to successfully collaborate even hundreds of kilometers apart. We communicate in German, Ukrainian, Russian, and Turkish – and primarily with each other in English. We will also find a common language with you.

Design lovers and creative makers

Design lovers, creative makers, and proactive knowledge workers. We are an award-winning agency with years of experience – a brilliant constellation to continue writing our own success and that of our clients.

Preference for cloud- and data-based processes

Working together towards a goal from different locations established a collaborative corporate culture with a preference for cloud- and data-based processes, as well as the latest communication, productivity, and AI tools.

We like each other and love what we do.

Because we learn something new every day and grow through challenges, because we like ourselves and our customers, because the successes of our work are measurable, and because we are allowed to be brave and a little paranoid every day in achieving our goals.

HQ at the Müritz, team in Europe

Our headquarters is located in Waren (Müritz) in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The team works spread out in MV and Saxony, in Ukraine, and in Antalya – from where we found the people who meet our and your expectations.

Key figures

Ken Goldstein once said that for a good company, three things matter: “People. Products. Profits. In that order.” We take pride in our sense for smart people – and in the fact that these clever and creative makers find a nurturing ground in our agency where exceptional projects can thrive.

2023

Subscription & E-Commerce on TutKit.com

After the major relaunch in 2021, during which we completely redesigned TutKit.com’s user experience and developed it using the PHP framework Laravel, additional sprints followed for performance and on-page improvements (SEO). In 2023, we then introduced the latest conceptual development. Our content, which was previously only available through a subscription membership, is also available for individual purchase since mid-year. Thus, TutKit.com offers a combination of subscription and e-commerce with new weekly content produced or licensed by us. As of July 2023, TutKit.com has over 800 products with tens of thousands of individual contents related to tutorials, assets, and design templates.

2015

TutKit.com – our content available for full access as a flat rate

A subscription with full access to all our shop content?! We have been asked about this now and then. That’s how we started in 2015 as a streaming provider for our video training and download flat rate for templates and assets. TutKit.com became our subscription commerce platform, and since then, our customers have had the opportunity to access our video tutorials, assets, and design templates through a membership. From the very beginning, it was a successful model that quickly convinced hundreds to thousands of interested parties.

2010

4eck Media – the leap into the agency business

In 2010, we founded 4eck Media GmbH & Co. KG and entered the agency business. A huge advantage for our clients: all the experiences and learnings from our own projects are directly integrated into client projects. Whether it’s graphic design and layout, web design and development, or digital marketing – through our own portals, we know what actually works and we transfer this practical know-how for the success of our clients. From modern one-pagers to extensive online shops, we have since successfully implemented numerous projects for small, medium, and large companies.

2008

Online Shop – This is how e-commerce works!

Due to the great interest in our video training on PSD-Tutorials.de surrounding Photoshop, InDesign, and Co., we decided to offer the content in our own online shop – our entry into the e-commerce business! Back then, we were still selling DVDs and learned how the marketing, distribution, and sale of “real” products work online. One of our core competencies that we now bring to our clients’ projects: e-commerce. Since 2012, we have been offering the content in digital form for download – the steadily growing product portfolio now includes over 800 items.

2005

Commag – pages that keep up with the times

With Commag, we created a free online magazine for image editing and web design. What started as a slim e-paper transformed into a more than one-hundred-page e-book, constantly reinventing itself in layout and design. When interest in the format of a PDF magazine waned due to changing consumption habits, we ultimately decided to discontinue it. From a business perspective, it is true that when the effort no longer justifies the benefit, one must let go of even the most beloved passion projects. What remains is a success story of over 10 years with more than 125 issues and up to 10,000 readers per issue.

2002

PSD-Tutorials.de – successful from the start

On December 20, 2002, Stefan Petri launched PSD-Tutorials.de online, laying the foundation for our digital venture. Over time, more than 850,000 people registered in the specialized forum. After more than 20 years – and many relaunches over the years – PSD-Tutorials.de still represents one of the largest specialized forums for topics related to design, photography, and image editing in the German-speaking world. While the great era of forums may be over due to social media, PSD-Tutorials.de continues to be maintained and supported by 4eck Media.
