    Hi, I’m Marina, Upwork expert-vetted Marketing Strategist with 10 years of professional experience. I began my career at a Fortune 500 company, launched and worked with international brands like Marlboro, IQOS, Hard Rock Cafe, and Cirque du Soleil. I have successfully led marketing, customer acquisition, customer retention, and customer experience (CX) departments in both international corporations and startups. I’ve built departments from the ground up, scaled teams, and driven growth through data-driven strategies. Over the past four years, I’ve established my own consulting services and provided various product and digital marketing services to over 30 companies worldwide, with a major focus on the US market. Currently, I join SaaS companies and startups as a fractional CMO/Business Consultant or provide project-based services. I specialize in building and executing product-driven marketing strategies, developing highly converting sales pipelines, executing targeted ABM campaigns. As a marketing strategist and business consultant, I help clients turn their business ideas into reality and grow their existing businesses. My process begins with a thorough business audit, including data analysis such as sales pipeline analysis, marketing acquisition channels analysis, website performance metrics, customer database analysis, and profitability analysis. Since businesses operate within a specific environment, it’s crucial to have up-to-date information about competitors and the industry. Therefore, I also conduct comprehensive market and competitor research. Last but not least I gather customer insights through various quantitative and qualitative methods and directly talk to customers and to learn about their pain points and needs. With all this information in hand, I develop a comprehensive marketing and Go-to-Market strategies that include business audit and overview, consumer journey, SWOT analysis, competitive environment overview, audience segmentation and ICP, brand storytelling, positioning, USPs and messaging, as well as marketing channels and customer acquisition plan, OKRs, budget and timeline. But that's not all. Some businesses struggle not because of their commercial functions but due to operational inefficiencies and lack of innovation. To address this, I also perform an internal audit to understand the working process, organizational structure, responsibility distribution, departmental goals and KPIs, tech infrastructure, and data collection, storage and sharing practices. Companies I Have Worked For Include: ClickGuard.com (SaaS, B2B, USA) Paystubs.com (SaaS, B2B/B2C, USA) CrushTeam.ai (SaaS, B2B, USA) PlotPulse (SaaS, B2C, USA) Rapid.ai (SaaS, USA) Star of Service (Marketplace, France) HIRECLOUT (Tech recruiting and consulting, USA) Square Signs (Custom sign making e-commerce, USA) Front Signs (Sign making company, B2B, USA) Industracom.com (B2B marketplace, Australia) Canadian Classroom (E-commerce, Canada, USA) Melloweasy (E-commerce, China) Ediscoveryai.com (SaaS, USA) ITALIANBARK (Services, Italy) Junkgenius (Services, USA) 651 Carpets (Services, USA) Details and Dixon's (Services, USA) Used Mobile Clinics (Services, USA) Sunesta (Services, USA) GutterHelmetMN.com (Services, USA) WarningLitesMN.com (Services, USA) OC Cleaning Services (Services, USA) Discover Chiropractic (Healthcare, USA) and many others Marketing Agencies: Hastings Digital Studios (USA) Oxsome (USA) Webthrive (USA) Captivate Marketing (USA) My toolbox includes Google Analytics, Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, LinkedIn Ads Manager, Hubspot, Zoho, Brevo, Adroll, Mailchimp, Yespo, FreshSales, Power BI, Looker Studio, Mouseflow, Hotjar, Fullstory, Semrush, Ahrefs, Canva, ChatGPT and others.

    Your business is only as strong as the systems it’s built on. So, simply put: build great systems. But we both know that’s easier said than done, right? Let’s flip the script together and make the process easier done than said. You’re just one system away from a more scalable, stress-free business.

I’ve been engaged with business operations since I was 14, from managing product workflows in SaaS companies to optimizing and creating systems in eCommerce. Over the years, I’ve seen the headaches of inefficiency, the thrill of getting it right, and the profound impact great systems can have on a team’s success. That’s why I’ve devoted myself to designing systems that not only work but help businesses thrive. Now, I’m combining my love for data, automation, and operational efficiency to create value-driven solutions that save time, simplify complexity, and enable growth. → Why choose me? I understand that business is personal. The pressure to perform, the desire to scale, it’s all real and it’s all human. That’s why my approach is collaborative and connective. I don’t just implement boring systems; I partner with you to ensure every solution aligns with your vision and ambitions. With experience in high-growth environments and a knack for turning complexity into clarity, I’ll help you unlock your business’s full potential and get the results you deserve as a business.
