9+ Years of Experience | Brand Strategy, Social Media & Digital Marketing Is your brand's digital presence keeping pace with the quality of your business? I partner with established companies and marketing teams to build and manage brand identities and social media programs that are strategic, consistent, and built to scale, not just visually polished. With 9+ years across branding, content, and digital strategy, I bring a full-service approach: positioning, design, content production, and execution, managed under one point of contact instead of stitched together across freelancers. I work strategy-first. Every piece of content is tied to a business objective, whether that's audience growth, engagement, lead generation, or brand consistency across a larger organization. I document process, report on performance, and adjust based on what the data shows, not just what looks good. Services: Brand strategy and visual identity systems Social media management and content strategy Short-form video production (Reels, TikTok) Website design (Wix, Webflow, Squarespace, Shopify) Brand positioning and executive/authority presence Strategic consulting I work best with companies that already have an established brand and want a partner who can manage the details without needing to be managed. If you're looking for a vendor who treats your account like it matters, let's talk.

🔸 Expert-Vetted | Top 1% on Upwork 🔸 Published in Vogue, Elle, WWD, Teen Vogue 🔸 Adobe Featured | Hand-picked among the best in their field 🔸 Upwork Skill Certified in Brand Identity I don’t do branding. I do propaganda. Most founders come to me at one of two moments: right before launch, when everything is riding on first impressions, or after realizing the brand they built in year one is holding them back in year three. Either way, the problem is the same. A logo isn't a brand. A name isn't a strategy. And a business without a cohesive brand identity doesn't just look unfinished, it leaves money, credibility, and opportunity on the table. I'm Axel, a brand identity designer and naming expert with 20+ years of experience building brands that transform a founder's vision into lasting market value. I specialize in strategy-based brand identity for ambitious startups and scaling companies with their sights set on the top tier of their market, across lifestyle, hospitality, fashion, beauty, finance, food & beverage, health & wellness, and tech. ◼️ What working with me looks like: Before we make any creative decisions, we align on strategy. Who you are, who you're for, and what makes you impossible to ignore. Then we build: naming, verbal identity, visual identity, brand guidelines, everything your team needs to show up consistently, whether that's on packaging, a pitch deck, or a homepage. Founders who work with me walk away with a brand system built to grow with the business, one that commands the attention, credibility, and investment their work deserves. ◼️ Built for founders who are serious: My background includes brand identity work for Airbnb, PepsiCo, Ralph Lauren, Martha Stewart, Elizabeth Arden, and Sur La Table, in addition to the startups and early-stage brands I'm most energized by on Upwork. If you're launching, fundraising, rebranding, or scaling, your brand is either building your business or costing it. Let's make sure it's doing the former. Send me a message to start the conversation. ◼️ WHAT I BUILD ▪️ Brand Naming & Naming Strategy ▪️ Brand Strategy & Positioning ▪️ Visual Identity & Logo Design ▪️ Verbal Identity & Brand Voice ▪️ Brand Identity Design & Systems ▪️ Rebranding & Brand Identity Refresh ▪️ Web Design ▪️ Creative Direction ◼️ HOW WE WORK TOGETHER ▪️ Every project starts with strategy. If you want someone to execute a brief, I may not be the right fit. If you want someone to help you think through what your brand should stand for and then bring it to life, we should talk. ▪️ I work on fixed-rate contracts for most brand projects. My hourly rate applies to consulting and advisory engagements. ▪️ A free 15-minute discovery call is recommended. This ensures we're the right fit before either of us commits. ▪️ I don't offer unlimited revisions. I follow a proven methodology designed to get it right. ▪️ The best outcomes come from founders who trust the process and bring their vision openly. The brand becomes yours, we build it together.

Writing has been both my most effective and proficient business skill and a personal passion for as long as I can remember. It's an asset that has helped solidify my role as Marketing Director for world-class brands and global consumer products for almost twenty years. In my professional career, I've been responsible for product development, brand management, and and all aspects of Marketing, Promotion, Media, and Messaging. I've been the pen behind the product of hundreds of beauty and fashion skus launched and distributed globally representing world-renown fashion, beauty, designer and celebrity brands. In charge of every aspect of the brands' messaging (digital, social, print, packaging, ad slogans, blogs, newsletters, PR), I aim to deliver content to resonate with the target audience, drive awareness, convert sales, and inspire, inform, and entertain the reader and consumer. I've worked on a variety of projects with clients from so many diverse industries, product lines, and copywriting objectives. I love contributing and crafting content for clients. I'm flexible with time and compensation and enjoy the process of researching the project, understanding the angle, and creating content that's compelling, interesting, and ultimately moves the needle. In addition to my "day job" writing tasks, I've written humor, poetry, sales pitches, acceptance speeches, slogans and taglines, song lyrics and screenplays, website copy, press releases, blogs, newsletters, and more. And with the emergence of digital technology, I understand the pros and cons of AI, write with an SEO-focus, and strive to evolve and improve my style and versatility when creating content. Personally, I've traveled the world, worked in various industries, earned my Master's (MBA), and have lived all over the US. My mother was an English teacher so grammar, structure, and flow are second nature. Thanks for your consideration and know that I will dedicate myself to extensive research, collaborative workflow, and completing projects that exceed expectations and give the client exactly what they're looking for and more. Thank you, Scott Berg
