How I Can Help You
Sustainable business growth with customer-focused marketing strategies designed to attract clients you love and streamline your path to success
Consider me your external marketing manager, helping you with 'done-for-you' or 'done-with-you' marketing.
And, of course, we align everything we do with your vision, goals and ideal clients so you can attract more clients you love to work with!
The last thing you want is to grow a business that keeps you stuck in yet another rat race: the entrepreneurial rat race. That’s why, in everything I do, I focus on attracting new leads and nurturing your current clients since it takes 5x more marketing effort to sell something to a new client than to current clients.
If you work with me, you’ll benefit from my background in MSc Business Strategy, Customer Experience and marketing.
Here’s how I can help:

360° Marketing Audit
A 90-minute audit to uncover where in your business you’re leaking leads, energy and time and how to close 10% of the gaps that cause 90% of your frustration.
After all, there’s no point in bringing in more leads if you’re leaking leads left and right.
Marketing Action Plan
A focused 4-hour strategic session to go from ideas and overwhelm to focus and an actionable plan.
Examples of what we can work on: your messaging, aligning your marketing with your goals or a personalised marketing campaign.
You go home with peace of mind, knowing you’ve made strategic decisions and a clear action plan that you or your team can implement.


Strategy Immersion Day
Reimagine your business strategy during a 1:1 VIP day in a luxurious 5-star setting designed to dream big.
Surround yourself in an inspiring environment that sparks creativity to visualise your next chapter of success.
You leave with a clear strategy and action plan to set the stage for your next chapter of success.
External Marketing Manager
I’ll be your marketing manager for 25 hours per month. I’ll work remotely and regularly in your location.
As your marketing manager, I’ll set up your marketing department or professionalise it.
If you want marketing off your plate, this is for you. So, you can focus on your core business with the peace of mind that it’s getting done and done properly.

TESTIMONIALS
Kind Words of Praise
Are you curious about how others experienced working with me? Here are some testimonials from clients that have worked with me.
I had been searching for the right next step, and I was approached by social media experts and business coaches who wanted to teach me how to completely reorganize my business. Nothing felt right.
Until Ilona gave me the feeling, with a few simple tips, that I would find what I was looking for with her: someone who sees the big picture clearly, who manages from a helicopter view from the sidelines, who advises on a project basis, and who knows everything about marketing both analytically and practically.
The result of working with Ilona was everything I hoped for.
I warmly recommend Ilona as a marketing and business strategist who advises, thinks with you and is knowledgable on all things business growth. In no time, she will have a clear idea of how you work, how your company is structured and how those two factors lead to YOUR desired result.
You were so kind and calm, it was really helpful when you were explaining the steps of the customer journey, and I felt like I had so many lightbulb moments! Honestly can’t thank you enough!
Without a doubt, Ilona is the one you want on the team. She is enthusiastic, connects the dots and crosses the i's and has a huge network from which she always knows how to get just the answers you need.
During my maternity leave, she was the only person I entrusted with my work and I was then able to convince the board that she should stay longer. Ilona is full of good ideas to help an organization flourish, reach the target group and inspire colleagues.
Ilona's unique view on organizing companies and creativity make her a great Marketing and Business Strategist.
She formulated our marketing strategy to improve our brand awareness and helped us win the Best Craft Beer Bar of the Year Award 2017 in the That's Shanghai F&B Industry Awards.
She's our go-to person for our strategic marketing projects like creating our website and investors presentation.
