I will build your brand strategy and positioning to win customers


About this gig
Most brands don't fail because of a bad logo. They fail because nobody can say in one sentence why a customer should choose them. I fix that.
I'm a Milan-based brand strategist. Background: H&M Group (ARKET flagship launch), luxury event marketing, and an Inside LVMH certificate in Creation & Branding. I work with founders in the US and Europe who need clarity before spending on design or ads.
WHAT YOU GET
- Market and competitor research: who owns which position, where the gap is
- Customer personas: who buys, why, what makes them hesitate
- Positioning statement and key messages
- Brand platform: purpose, values, personality, tone of voice
- Action roadmap: what to do next, in order
Every deliverable is a decision-ready document, not a mood board. Want visuals too? Add the visual identity kit (logo, palette, typography) built on the strategy.
WHO IT'S FOR
Startups, D2C and lifestyle brands, fashion and beauty labels, small businesses launching or repositioning. B2B and B2C.

1) Short brief or a call

FAQ
Do I get a logo and visual design?
My focus is strategy: positioning, research and messaging. You can add the Visual Identity Kit (logo concept, palette, typography) as an extra, and I build it on top of the strategy so it actually fits.
What do you need from me to start?
A short brief: what you sell, who you sell to, your goals, and any competitors or links you like. If you prefer, we can do a quick call instead. The more context, the sharper the strategy.
Do you work with US and European clients?
Yes. I'm based in Milan and work with founders and teams across Europe and the US. I speak English fluently and adapt to your time zone for calls.
