The Mister Handwerk of the year 2020, a Tik-Tok Boomer, youtube Star and digital master craftsman - we looked into how Andy Hansen became who he is.

“What you do and what you love works best”

When Andy Hansen is not on the construction site, he usually sits in front of his Mac, but not around to write offers or invoices, but to edit his own videos.

It was clear to him early on that he wanted to combine his passion for videos and his craft. As an employee, however, Andy's boss was not enthusiastic about it. Painting instead of filming was the message here.

To pursue his passion, Andy Hansen took the plunge and set himself up for himself. As an independent master, he can of course do what HE Buck has.

And lo and behold? His courage paid off.

Today, he has thousands of followers. His videos have already been viewed over 2.7 million times (as of April 2021).

“Painting and YouTube? That works!”

How did we become aware of painter Andy?

“DIGITALIZATION IN THE CRAFT SECTOR — A YEAR WITHOUT PAPER” - That's how we found Andy. After watching the video, it was clear to us that we had to get to know the man.

Andy has now been traveling without paper for 2 years, only Apple devices and thousands of followers on social media.

It is important to Andy that his painting software doesn't contain a lot of bells and whistles and on the other hand, it should of course also run on his Mac devices. Andy Hansen is now using Plancraft.

“I like that Plancraft runs on all my Apple devices. From iPad to MacBook. Using the software is easy and intuitive. It saves me time and allows me to spend more time on my passion.”

More commitment, instead of 5 stars on Google

When it comes to opportunities of digitization and social media In crafts, then, according to Andy, the proximity between customer and craftsman is worth at least as much as the 5 star rating on Google.

Andy Hansen sees Hansen as an idol of how social media can work in crafts Jean-Pierre Kramer, better known as JP Performance. JP Performance has managed to build a brand in the area of car tuning through its YouTube videos.

Just as Andy would give his car to JP Performance to tune, he hopes that potential customers will be more likely to get to him through his presence on social media.
