Hersteller finden – der kostenlose Workshop mit Margot Königshofer

Die meisten Produktideen scheitern nicht am Marketing, sondern an einer Lieferkette, die nicht funktioniert. In diesem Workshop zeigt dir Margot Königshofer, wie du den passenden Hersteller in Europa für dein physisches Produkt findest – ohne endlose Suche, teure Fehler und böse Überraschungen. Den kompletten Workshop siehst du oben auf dieser Seite.

Das lernst du im Workshop

  • Strategie & Positionierung: dein Produkt so klar definieren, dass Hersteller sofort verstehen, was du brauchst – inklusive Material, Qualität und Zielpreis.
  • Sourcing-Strategie: die bewusste Entscheidung für die Fertigung in Europa – und warum sie gerade bei Patenten und echten Innovationen die sichere Wahl ist.
  • Lieferanten finden: warum du mit einer Long List aus 70 bis 100 Herstellern startest, wenn am Ende nur zwei bis drei wirklich passen.
  • Ausschreibung (RFQ): Pitch, vergleichbare Preisabfrage und Produktspezifikation richtig aufsetzen – und warum ein NDA deine Idee schützt.
  • Angebote & Verhandlung: Incoterms, Mindestbestellmengen, Staffelpreise und Zahlungsbedingungen verstehen, bevor du unterschreibst.
  • Bemusterung: das freigegebene Golden Sample als verbindliche Referenz für jede spätere Lieferung sichern.
  • Finalisierung: den besten – nicht den günstigsten – Hersteller wählen und praxistauglich vertraglich absichern.

Warum Fertigung in Europa?

Wer in Europa produziert, profitiert von kurzen Lieferzeiten, gemeinsamer Produktentwicklung vor Ort und Verträgen nach europäischem Recht. Gerade bei der Skalierung zählt Geschwindigkeit: Statt monatelang auf Ware zu warten, arbeitest du mit Herstellern, die mit dir mitwachsen – oft mit fairen Zahlungszielen von 14 bis 30 Tagen netto.

Häufige Fragen

Für ein neues Produkt startest du am besten mit einer Long List aus 70 bis 100 Herstellern, weil am Ende meist nur zwei bis drei Kandidaten wirklich passen. Je größer die Ausgangsliste, desto höher die Chance, den richtigen Partner zu finden.

Der günstigste Hersteller ist selten der beste, weil ein niedriger Preis weder Qualität noch Zuverlässigkeit noch echtes Interesse an deinem Projekt garantiert. Entscheidend ist, wie gut ein Hersteller zu deiner Unternehmensgröße und deinen Anforderungen passt.

Ein Golden Sample ist das von dir final freigegebene Produktmuster, das als verbindliche Referenz für alle folgenden Lieferungen dient. Es wird datiert, fotografiert und aufbewahrt, um spätere Qualitätsabweichungen eindeutig belegen zu können.
Wenn du dein Produkt stressfrei in Europa produzieren willst, sichere dir ein kostenloses Erstgespräch. Wir prüfen deine Produktidee und zeigen dir den konkreten nächsten Schritt.

I really enjoy working with people who know what they’re doing and still have their heart in the right place. Procfit has both. Very cool.

I would like to express my sincere thanks for the professional service provided by Procfit.
The clear process management and forward-looking approach were simply fantastic. In addition, a big thank you for the friendly and open manner of everyone we had the pleasure of working with on the project.

I am happy to recommend this service and Procfit GmbH without reservation.

Margot and Daniel from Procfit exceeded my expectations! Not only was the project goal achieved on time, but the entire process was structured, transparent, and efficient from the very beginning. I was particularly impressed by the professional yet friendly manner in which we were treated as equals.

As a young entrepreneur in the start-up phase, you really appreciate being taken seriously – and that’s exactly what happened here. During the start-up phase, I worked with many service providers who made big promises but ended up creating extra work due to poor project management. Procfit does exactly the opposite – they don’t just talk, they deliver! Thanks to their structured approach, the search for suppliers was efficient and goal-oriented.

MALUKI-Design will work with Margot and her team again at the next opportunity – and can recommend Procfit without reservation!

I am not (yet) a customer, so my feedback may not be particularly valuable, but I still feel compelled to share my thoughts.

I had an initial consultation with Ms. Königshofer to find suitable suppliers for my company (e-commerce, currently being established). She was incredibly helpful thanks to her experience, and I realized right away that I was dealing with professionals. The consultation was very constructive, professional, and above all honest. As a young entrepreneur, it can be difficult to get an overview, but here you really feel that you are in good hands.

I decided against working with them for the time being because it would be too early for me financially. There are still a few things I want to learn on my own. But when the time comes, I look forward to working with them.

So even without having worked with them yet, they deserve 5 stars (so far 😉)

Through Margot’s hands-on coaching, I learned the sourcing process from the ground up and built valuable, long-term skills. The collaboration was very friendly, and Margot had an answer to every question—or she dug deep to find one with total commitment. I would definitely use her coaching again! 😊

Ema Bolz
The best decision! I found a great partner for my project. Everything was handled quickly and professionally. I would definitely recommend Farbik to anyone. Thanks again to the great team—I couldn’t have made my idea a reality without you!

I met Margot, the managing director of Procfit, by chance at a marketing event – sometimes the right things just happen at the right time. During the coffee break, I spontaneously told her about my idea: a very special, patented gadget for which I had been looking for a suitable partner for further development for a long time. And what can I say – Margot immediately understood what I was talking about, and a short time later she had found the perfect manufacturer for me from her network.

What convinced me right from the start was not only Margot’s professional expertise, but above all her personal, friendly manner of communicating on an equal footing. I never felt like I was “just” a customer – it was more like I had a real ally at my side. This human touch makes a huge difference to me. I am a service provider myself and know what that means.
Thanks to Procfit, my concept has been professionally developed—I now have the first working prototype in my hands! I was impressed by the fast, structured, and at the same time very approachable collaboration. The team has exactly the mix of entrepreneurial thinking, hands-on mentality, and technical know-how that you want as a founder.
And what I also particularly appreciate is that Procfit had suitable solutions ready even for later steps such as fulfillment – i.e., storage, shipping, and packaging. How great is that? It’s just a good feeling to know that you can fall back on a strong, now European network when you need it.

I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who wants to launch an innovative product and is looking for the right partner – both professionally and personally.
