The Situation Before
What the Client Came In With
"We need a website with a contact form so customers can enquire about floral arrangements online."
Blumen Dornröschen GmbH had been operating professionally for 20+ years — but without a system, both the day-to-day operations and the legal obligations were running on informal coordination and personal memory. Orders came through Instagram DMs, WhatsApp, and walk-ins — with no centralized record. German labor law (Arbeitszeitgesetz — German working time law) requires documented employee working time records, and Blumen Dornröschen had none. The compliance risk was real and growing.
The Turning Point
What Exclolab Found
Blumen Dornröschen GmbH had been operating professionally for 20+ years — but without a system, both the day-to-day operations and the legal obligations were running on informal coordination and personal memory. Orders came through Instagram DMs, WhatsApp, and walk-ins — with no centralized record. German labor law (Arbeitszeitgesetz — German working time law) requires documented employee working time records, and Blumen Dornröschen had none. The compliance risk was real and growing.
The Approach
How Exclolab Worked
Discovery identified two distinct problems requiring two distinct solutions — not one system forced to do both. We built: (1) an order management system centralizing all intake channels with a structured workflow from enquiry to completion, and (2) a German labor law-compliant time tracking module meeting Arbeitszeitgesetz requirements. Both delivered in 30 days.

The Results
What Changed
Zero structure → fully operational + audit-ready
Operational chaos reduction
German labor law compliance achieved
Blumen Dornröschen's daily operations now run through a single structured system. Orders are recorded, tracked, and fulfilled without relying on personal memory or WhatsApp threads. Employee time records are documented and audit-ready — the Arbeitszeitgesetz compliance gap is closed. For the first time, the business owner can see what's happening across orders, staff hours, and fulfillment — from one place.
Client Voice
In Their Own Words
Just to add here — I'd love to work with you guys again. The system immediately helped our daily operations. Orders are organized, our team's hours are properly tracked, and for the first time we feel in control of how our business runs day to day. It's made us look and feel more professional — and we're no longer worried about compliance.— Blumen Dornröschen GmbH, Frankfurt, Post-Launch Feedback

Work with Exclolab
Your Business Might Have the Same Two Problems
Blumen Dornröschen had been operating professionally for over 20 years — but without a system, both the day-to-day operations and the legal obligations were running on informal coordination and personal memory. If your business is managing orders, customers, or staff through WhatsApp and spreadsheets right now, and if you're not entirely sure your working time records would survive an audit — the first conversation with Exclolab isn't a pitch. It's the same mapping session Blumen Dornröschen went through.
