Max Frankl is a dedicated entrepreneur, digital marketing expert, and mentor who thrives on helping ambitious individuals and organizations reach their highest goals. With a background rich in artistic and digital accomplishments, Max brings a unique blend of creativity and strategic thinking to every project he undertakes.
Originally from the outskirts of Munich, Germany, Max's journey began not in jazz, but with the sounds of Nirvana, Guns N' Roses, and Soundgarden. His passion for music was ignited at a young age when he attended a big band concert with his father. This experience led him to immerse himself in the world of jazz, eventually joining his school jazz band and falling in love with improvisation. Max's dedication and talent soon saw him become the first German guitarist to join the Official European Jazz Orchestra. He went on to win the prestigious ECHO Jazz Award, toured extensively across Europe and Africa, and became a brand ambassador for Ibanez Guitars.
In 2017, Max's entrepreneurial spirit took him to New York City, where he developed his first digital product for his jazz guitar academy over the course of three months in a café. This venture into online education was a pioneering move in a predominantly analog world, and through his innovative online courses, Max successfully scaled his business to six-figure revenues while building a loyal digital community.
Max's commitment to continuous learning led him to complete the CAS Digital Marketing program at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences. He has since leveraged his extensive knowledge to assist organizations like the Gstaad Menuhin Festival & Academy and GEMA in digitizing their offerings.
As a digital entrepreneur, Max has faced and conquered every imaginable challenge in digital marketing, drawing from a rich reservoir of practical experience. His consultancy, Max Frankl Consulting, focuses on bringing the vast opportunities of digitalization to businesses, helping them navigate the complexities of the modern digital landscape and achieve their strategic goals.
Max Frankl stands out as an innovator who not only redefines the boundaries of creative expression but also inspires others to realize their own digital and creative ambitions. His journey from a passionate guitarist to a leading digital marketing expert is a testament to his versatility and vision.
