Notes to answerer
Asker: Hello together. There is no context. slogan stands entirely on its own. It is a ppt of a consulting company. and "SCHON HEUTE sichern wir Ihnen zu jedem Zeitpunkt unserer Zusammenarbeit absolute Professionalität und Kundennähe zu!!!" forms the last foil. What about sth like that: You will be provided – forthwith and at any time of our collaboration -with absolute professionalism and close customer relationship!!
