Best digital platforms
Building the best digital platforms for our users, saving them time, money, and energy to spend on the things that matter in their lives
How it all began
The CEO of AWM Network founded the company in 2014. He bootstrapped the business from a rented spot in an office hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark. It all started with a simple website, a Google Ads campaign, a telephone, and an excel sheet with a few coded features.
The idea was sparked by a long career in digital marketing consulting, leaving the desire for a more scalable, automated, and globally oriented way to bring customers and suppliers together.
With a successful launch and excellent customer feedback, the ambition became nothing less than to help start a new industry – the Customers as a Service (CaaS) industry.
Since the inception, the CaaS platform has enjoyed hyper-growth, making AWM Network one of Denmark’s fastest growing companies (according to EY Entrepreneur Of The Year), without compromising its people focused culture.

Values
To get a feel of the AWM culture, take a look at our values. They live throughout the company and help shape our unique spirit.
We are the AWM Family
Our team is our family. We respect, trust, and care for each other, even when we see things from different perspectives.
Quality people = quality company
We only hire the best people. To have a strong company culture in which we are committed to treat each other like family, it is important to welcome the right people. We will protect our family by ensuring that every single member aligns with our values.
Get a (private) life!
We take good care of all aspects of our lives. If we are happy and healthy at home and outside work, we are better colleagues, better bosses, and better AWMers.
We can learn anything
While we’re humble enough to acknowledge that there is a lot we don’t know, we also believe that there is nothing that we can’t learn. We are committed to lifelong personal and professional development, enabling us to go anywhere we want or need to go, and to reach our full potential, individually as well as in unity.
Play to win, not to survive
People and organisations who play it safe continually miss opportunities and seldom make progress. Do your analysis, test your assumptions, know your ‘what ifs’, then trust yourself, make tough decisions, live on the edge, make a difference, and learn from mistakes. We don’t fail, we learn what doesn’t work.
Darwin was a BRO!
We are highly adaptive, positive about change, and always aim to be ‘the fittest’. As the digital landscape changes by the minute, we keep ourselves ahead of the game. We never just do things out of routine – because that was the way it was done yesterday, it is not necessarily the same today.
Think big and long-term
We set huge, long-term goals, and place them over short-term profits. In all aspects, we always think long-term.
We value results
We are not busy for the sake of being busy, but rather we strive to always be busy doing the right things. That is, prioritising what’s truly important in order to bring the greatest results.
In data we trust
We are a highly data-driven organisation, and we extract and analyse data from every part of our organisation. However, we are also aware that the future can’t always be predicted by analysing the past.
Give recognition in plenary session
It’s not only up to the management to give recognition. When we notice accomplishment or extraordinary behaviour, we let the responsible person know they did well. We give credit where credit is due.
Give and take responsibility
We hire the best people, not to tell them what to do, but so they take responsibility and do what needs to be done.
Reason over power
We encourage and value opinions from colleagues on all levels, and want the best argument to win, rather than whoever is in charge.
Attitude is contagious
Every day you choose how to respond to challenges, colleagues, users, partners, suppliers, tasks, etc. Your attitude is highly contagious, and will deeply affect your success, happiness, and surroundings. Bring a cheerful, playful, and optimistic energy – every day.
Fearless honesty and transparent relationships
We can only be great in unity, and in order to be truly united, we need to build strong relationships and cultivate an environment that promotes the sharing of ideas, opinions, and viewpoints from all members of the company. That also means to be transparent about one’s own shortcomings and to be willing to give and take constructive criticism.
There is no I in TEAM
No person or department can stand alone. Personal results matter but we work towards a common goal.
Have fun and get shit done
We are serious about doing great work but we also want have fun in the process.
Do more with less
As we grow, having a culture that respects expenses and has the creativity to ‘do more with less’ will have an increasing impact on our success. Imagine if there were 10,000 people, that didn’t think about the costs of what they buy, or didn’t care to negotiate a better deal? We are proud to find smart solutions to spend less and still get a lot out of it.
We are positively dissatisfied
Success is the progressive realisation of a predetermined, worthwhile goal. We will never finish, we are never good enough, and there is always something that should be improved.
Mission
We are on a mission to help start a new industry, and to make our main stakeholders happy by offering:
Best customer acquisition channel
Providing the best customer acquisition channel to our suppliers, and generating unparalleled growth that is cheaper and easier than any other channel – with zero risk
Best place to work
Being the best place to work for our passionate, ambitious, and beloved AWMers
