``
 Fischer & Habel presents itself on its website as a full-service ecommerce agency for small and medium-sized businesses, selling through Shopify and through Amazon. Flapen is an Amazon agency that sources and launches brands from zero, with about 1.4 brands per operator. Six written questions separate the two models. ## The short version - **Fischer & Habel states a Shopify and Amazon scope.** Its page title reads as an ecommerce agency for Shopify and Amazon marketing. - **Fischer & Habel writes to small and medium-sized businesses.** Its meta description states 160+ companies trusted to grow Shopify and Amazon sales. - **Fischer & Habel publishes no price on that page.** Its own questions ask what costs can be expected, and no figure follows. - **Flapen publishes a ratio, not a headcount.** Fifty operators carry about 70 brands, about 1.4 each. - **Flapen prices by product count.** $800 a month for one product to $2,400 for five, everything included. ## What Fischer & Habel says it offers Everything here comes from one page on fischer-habel.com, captured on 5 September 2026. The page is in German, so the sentences here are its own text in translation. Its title reads as an ecommerce agency for Shopify and Amazon marketing. The meta description states a full-service ecommerce agency for small and medium-sized businesses, trusted by 160+ companies to grow Shopify and Amazon sales. The headline states millions in sales with your own Shopify online store or via Amazon, or both. A section asks why Shopify and Amazon are by far the most important platforms for your success in ecommerce. Two headings split the offer under it, selling via Shopify and selling through Amazon. A band titled case studies from our clients follows, one entry describing a Shopify store relaunch and another naming Amazon advertising. The percentages there sit against client accounts, not a fee. A heading reading your next steps carries three: make an appointment, preliminary meeting, and initial consultation. After those sit a section about the founders, a heading reading our location, and a heading stating multiple certifications, none of which the page names. No partner badge and no founding year appear on it. One sentence names what it takes to succeed as a manufacturer or brand with your own online shop and on Amazon, in Germany and internationally. Its four frequently asked questions concern the first meeting. They ask why the initial consultation is free, how to secure one, what it involves, and what costs to expect when working together. No figure answers that last one anywhere on the page. ## What Flapen offers Fifty operators here run about 70 brands, about 1.4 brands each. We publish that fraction because attention per account is what a monthly fee buys. Every operator sits on our payroll and nothing goes to a subcontractor. Sourcing and quality control run from our Guangzhou studio, creative from Dubai, and our engineers write the software. All 50+ services come at every tier, from $800 a month for one product to $2,400 for five, with no commission. You stay month to month on 30 days of notice. You leave with the account, the campaigns, the creative, and a written handover, all of it [Amazon brand management](https://flapen.com/amazon-brand-management). [Our system](https://flapen.com/system) runs five steps: market, product, traffic, plan, launch. A market clears $2M a year and holds returns under 8%, and a product is engineered for 0.2 stars above the niche average. Phase 1 puts 200 units live on $5,000 to $10,000. [Our science](https://flapen.com/science) publishes 193,753 niches scored at the 2026-08-26 capture, of which 4.8% pass, on 90+ data points per verdict. Our operators work inside tools we built for ads, marketing, and brand valuation, on the data layer [our platform](https://flapen.com/flapen-ai) serves to 15,000 sellers a month. Every finished task becomes an SOP that trains the agents. ## Side by side | | Flapen | Fischer & Habel |

Its site puts an owned store and a marketplace side by side, so a manufacturer carrying both sees that scope written down. It names Germany and international selling in one sentence, and it publishes a free initial consultation it calls non-binding. A seller who wants the first conversation in German can start there before any figure is quoted. ## A brand we launched and run Every store on flapen.com/results was built and launched through Flapen's Amazon FBA service. [GrillX](https://flapen.com/results/grillx) is a BBQ and bar accessories brand that Flapen manages on Amazon, from the ad account down to the freight quotes. Its headline figure is ACoS 88% to 32%. The outcome sentence reads: _The worst-performing ad line rebuilt into a keeper, while sea freight negotiated to $1.04/kg kept the landed cost honest._## How to test both of us At BRANDED and Moonshot Brands I sat on the buying side of 60+ acquired brands. Sellers reach this page saying _My product is live but sales are not where they should be._ Send these six questions in writing to every company on your list, mine included. 1. Who touches my account each week, and where do they sit? 2. How many brands does that person carry? 3. Which of my products would you refuse to work on? 4. Is the fee flat, a share of sales, or tied to ad spend? 5. What would make you tell me to stop a product, and when? 6. What do I keep on exit, and on what notice? Question two sorts the list fastest, because replies come in two shapes. | The reply to question two | What you learn |
| --- | --- | | a ratio, brands divided by the managers | how much of one person's week you get | | a headcount, a team page, a photograph | how large the company is, and nothing about you | One rule closes it. Hire the company whose answer sits in the top row, and if that is not Flapen, do not hire us. ## What most agencies will not tell you A page one agency writes about another is not evidence, so weigh the answers, not my adjectives. Every fee is a staffing decision, and it moves whenever somebody new signs. | | Priced against the roster | Priced against your account |
| --- | --- | --- | | What sets the monthly number | how many clients one manager can hold | the work your account needs each week | | What ten new signings change | your share of the week, quietly | the headcount, before the load lands | The rule repeats. Ask for brands per manager in writing before you ask for a discount, because that fraction is the only staffing promise you can check later. ## Fischer & Habel alternatives Four shapes cover this decision, and shape matters more than the name on the invoice. Full service hands one team the whole account for a monthly fee, and a specialist takes one function. An in-house hire moves the skill onto your payroll, and a platform sells the data and leaves the work with you. ## Related answersGo deeper [~~Digital Aid & Solutions vs Flapen~~](https://flapen.com/blog/digital-aid-and-solutions-vs-flapen)· [~~DigitFruition vs Flapen~~](https://flapen.com/blog/digitfruition-vs-flapen)· [~~Full service Amazon management for a single SKU~~](https://flapen.com/blog/is-full-service-amazon-management-worth-it-for-a-single-sku)· [~~How to choose an Amazon brand management agency~~](https://flapen.com/blog/how-to-choose-an-amazon-brand-management-agency)· [~~Flapen compared with other Amazon agencies: the complete guide~~](https://flapen.com/blog/flapen-vs-other-amazon-agencies) ## Sources - [Fischer & Habel, ecommerce agency for Shopify and Amazon marketing](https://fischer-habel.com/) Last verified 5 September 2026.
