About

I’m Maria. I combine strategy, taste and mindset work.

I’m 30, and for the past few years I’ve been living between several countries.
5 years in marketing and SMM, 3 years in international B2B and B2C sales.

Since 2025, my own practice: personal branding, mentorship and producing. I build strategies and products for myself first, then for my clients.

I founded BrandSelf, a personal branding agency where I work with experts, influencers, bloggers and entrepreneurs.

Ways to work together

First step: a strategy session

An in-depth conversation and audit of your blog, services and product. Two sessions — and you know exactly who you are to your audience, what you sell and what’s holding you back.

01

Discovery call, 20 min. Free. We look at your goals and whether we’re the right fit for each other.

02

Session 1. A deep dive into your goals, strengths and weaknesses, niche, services and product (if you have one). I show you where your potential and monetization opportunities lie, and together we shape your positioning, audience and content pillars.

03

One week of support. Questions and feedback on Telegram while you implement.

04

Session 2. A 90-day plan, plus work on your presence, persona and style. We work through what holds you back: fear of visibility, impostor syndrome, procrastination, chaos in your processes. We define the paths and direction for your next steps.

Who it’s for

For those who are already good at what they do, but don’t yet sell at the level of their experience

Experts

Stylists, psychologists, coaches, specialists. Years of experience, but the blog and offer don’t reflect your level yet.

Creators

Bloggers, UGC, fashion and lifestyle. You have the aesthetic and the audience, but brand collaborations or sales of your services and products still lack structure and don’t reflect your value.

Founders

Your business is strong, but your personal brand doesn’t yet convey its level. You need clear positioning, a cohesive image and premium content that look as high-end as your product and expertise, and build trust before the first conversation.

You post, but no inquiries come in

Your services are mixed and clients don’t know what to buy

Raising your price or showing up feels scary

You know what to do, but keep putting it off

You’re not sure how to present yourself

You don’t know what to talk and write about, or which formats suit your personal type

Cases

Client results

01 · AGENCY

$1,000

first UGC income and 5+ brands in 2 months

Client UGC shoot in a boutique Product still from the UGC shoot

Lifestyle blogger → UGC creator

Before: a lifestyle blog with no steady monetization.

What we did: positioning as a UGC creator, an offer and portfolio for brands, a strategy for landing collaborations. We chose the right formats and created 20+ pieces of content.

02 · MENTORSHIP

3 months

from employee to agency co-founder

Client, former SMM specialist BrandSelf Studio agency visual

In-house SMM specialist → her own business

Before: low rates and fear of starting something of her own.

What we did: worked through the fear and built a clear action plan. Mentorship began in February, and in May we launched a personal branding agency together.

Result: her own income and a co-founder role in our joint agency.

03 · PACKAGING EXPERTISE & LONG-TERM BRAND SUPPORT

$1,200

price point of her signature mentorship program

Stylist, client

Stylist with 8 years of experience → her own program

Before: plenty of valuable content, but no clear structure or client journey; client and brand services mixed together, expertise without an educational product.

What we did: structured the blog and service lines, designed highlights, built a mentorship program. Next: long-term support for her personal brand and sales.

Status: expertise packaged into a high-ticket product, launch in progress.

Questions

I’m just starting out. Is this for me?

The session works best when you already have experience or services. If you’re at the very beginning, message me — I’ll suggest where to start or invite you to the group program.

How is this different from an SMM consultation?

We work not just on content, but on positioning, product, pricing and what keeps you from acting. Content follows strategy.

What will I walk away with?

First and foremost — a deep unpacking of yourself and real clarity: who you are, where your value lies and where to go next. It’s individual work built around your situation, not a template.
In hand: your strategy in a Notion document, your offer, content pillars and a 90-day action plan.

How do I pay?

Payment by bank transfer to my registered business account. 100% prepayment before the first session.

Let’s start with 20 minutes

A free discovery call after which you’ll see your brand through completely different eyes.
