Clarity is the
whole job.

I build brand strategy and AI-powered marketing systems for tech startups, founders, and high-growth brands who already know what they're building. My job is to make everyone else see it too.

The philosophy

Most brands don't have a positioning problem. They have a clarity problem. I take what's already true about your business and turn it into a brand people recognize before they can articulate why.

What I do
01
AI-Powered Marketing Systems

I audit how your marketing actually gets made, find where AI creates real leverage, and build the systems your team will still be using six months from now. Tool selection, workflow design, team training. I don't recommend AI from the sidelines. I implement it with you, because I run my own business on it.

AI · Systems · Training
02
Brand Identity & Positioning

Your brand is not a logo. It's the system of meaning behind everything you put into the world. I define the positioning, the voice, and the messaging so that every decision after this one gets easier.

Strategy · Identity · Messaging
03
Marketing Strategy & Campaigns

Go-to-market plans, channel strategy, and campaigns with actual KPIs attached. Built on what your data says, not on what worked for someone else's brand in 2023.

Growth · Campaigns · GTM
04
Social Media Consultancy

Platform strategy, content pillars, and a system for showing up consistently without burning out your team. Social as a channel with a job to do, not a place to post and hope.

Social · Content · Analytics
05
Content Production & Storytelling

Copywriting, creative direction, and campaign assets. The words and visuals that carry the strategy, written by the person who built the strategy.

Copy · Creative · Direction
06
Brand Audit & Competitive Analysis

A rigorous diagnostic of where your brand stands, what your competitors are actually doing, and where the open space is. You leave knowing exactly what to fix first.

Custom & Bespoke
Some engagements don't fit a package.

Multi-brand architecture, enterprise rebrands, long-term creative partnerships. If that's you, tell me what you're working on and I'll scope it properly.

The MAIA Method
I
Discover

Deep listening first. Your business, your audience, your competitive landscape. No strategy gets written before I understand what's actually going on.

II
Architect

The brand and marketing strategy, designed from insight rather than template, with KPIs and milestones you can hold me to.

III
Execute

Strategy meets craft. Deliverables, creative assets, and campaigns, built with precision and shipped on schedule.

IV
Optimise

Measure, learn, refine. Performance data becomes sharper strategy, and every effort compounds over time.

Why MAIA

For the founders who already know they're building something different.

MAIA is a one-person consultancy by design. When you work with me, you get the person who wrote the strategy in every room where it matters. Ten years across consumer tech, B2B, real estate, and lifestyle, and a practice built on one belief: the strongest brands don't explain themselves. They make you feel something before you read a word.

Every engagement begins with genuine curiosity about your business and ends with a system designed for where you're going, not where everyone else has already been.

The founder

Strategy is a
form of care.

I'm Güneş, a Brand Strategist & AI Marketing Consultant who has spent 10+ years building brands across tech, wellness, and consumer. Brands that feel inevitable. I use AI as a creative and strategic multiplier, helping brands and their teams work faster, think sharper, and build marketing systems that scale without losing the human touch.

MAIA is named for one of the Pleiades stars, a quiet tribute to my late mother Pervin, whose name in Turkish means Pleiades. It's a reminder that what we build should carry meaning beyond what's visible.

I work with a select number of clients each quarter, founders and brands across San Francisco, New York, and globally, who are ready to build something that lasts.

Selected projects

A mix of client work and self-initiated concept studies. The concepts exist because I'd rather show you my thinking than wait for permission to have it.

01
Client Work Web Design Brand & Copy Trades
Molina Custom Works
A full brand and website build for a custom contracting business, shipped and live at molinacustomworks.com. Positioning, site architecture, and copy. The brief underneath: make a trades business feel as considered as the work it does.

02
Concept Study Visual Identity Messaging Architecture SaaS
Axiom
A brand intelligence platform defined for the moment when perception becomes your most valuable asset. The strategic problem: one brand speaking to two audiences at once, the founder in a pitch room and the CMO running a campaign, without splitting into two voices. I shaped the positioning, visual identity, and messaging architecture to hold both.

03
Concept Study Tone of Voice Launch Strategy Wellness
Sanctum
A curated retreat platform built on one idea: rest is not the opposite of ambition, it's the source of it. The strategic problem: making a brand feel like a place before it feels like a product. I shaped it from positioning through visual identity, tone of voice, and launch strategy. Intimate, discerning, and already familiar to the right person.

04
Concept Study Packaging Content Strategy Consumer
Matcha Muse
The slow ritual of matcha and the performance logic of protein, one brand, neither diluted. The strategic problem: merging two category languages that usually refuse to share a shelf. I defined the identity from naming through packaging: color system, brand story, and a content strategy rooted in a morning ritual people actually want to be part of.

Personal Brand Brand Strategy Identity Founder
MAIA Creative House
MAIA is itself a brand build, and this is the work behind the work. The positioning, the naming, the visual language, the voice. Every decision here is the same process I bring to clients: start with meaning, build with intention, and create something that doesn't need to explain itself.
