Social Media & Digital Marketing Strategist

Marilena VlachouCreative portfolio.

Hello, I’m Marilena. I help brands understand what their audience needs to hear, then turn that insight into strategy, creative campaigns and media decisions that work together.

This portfolio is a look inside my process: how I find the opportunity, build the campaign idea and shape every touchpoint around a clear business goal.

Concept Campaigns

Strategy first. Creative with a job to do.

These independently developed concepts show how I would approach a brand: diagnose the business problem, identify the audience tension, build a positioning and translate it into a social focused, channel ready content system. They express my strategic and creative point of view; no fictional campaign results are presented.

Selected Video Work

Every edit is shaped for the story and the platform.

These videos were published organically across social media and brand websites. I handled the edit and post production, shaping the pacing, music selection, transitions and final delivery for each format.

Get to know me

Why me?

I combine the discipline to question the data with the creative judgment to decide what should happen next.

Minimal creative workspace with laptop and notebooks

I studied Dietetics and began working in social media and digital marketing while I was at university. What started as freelance work gradually became my full time career, giving me practical experience across strategy, paid media, SEO, content and client communication.

My background in health sciences trained me to question evidence, translate complex information clearly and understand the behaviours behind a decision. I now use that discipline to turn audience insight and campaign data into practical marketing choices.

I am based in Greece and interested in working with international brands and teams where strong ideas need to translate across markets. I adapt strategy and messaging to different audiences while keeping the work clear, consistent and aligned with the brand.

How I workOrganised from brief to final delivery.

I keep priorities, timelines, creative decisions and performance feedback clear throughout the process. That structure helps me protect the details without losing sight of the outcome.
