I lead a boutique marketing agency for websites and video and step in as a fractional marketing leader when teams need senior execution—not theory.

Recent highlights: launched new websites that lifted organic traffic within 60 days, paired with consent‑first analytics (GA4/GTM server‑side + CMP) so sales actually sees who’s engaging. I’ve driven multi‑channel demand gen across Google, LinkedIn, and Meta, turning content and video into qualified pipeline—not just impressions.

What I’m good at
Websites: Webflow & WordPress/Elementor, CRO, landing pages, site speed, SEO foundations.
Video: short‑form customer stories, ads, UGC‑style assets to warm retargeting and sales enablement.
Performance: SEO/SEM/PPC, LinkedIn Ads, Meta Ads, UTM governance, GA4, GTM (server‑side), Looker Studio reporting.
Ops: attribution, lead scoring, HubSpot/Klaviyo automations, clean dashboards sales actually uses.
Privacy: GDPR/CCPA‑aligned consent (Axeptio CMP) without killing conversion.

Signature wins

Rebuilt a B2B site + content engine → organic traffic up in 2 months, better account visibility for sales.

Grew agency revenue triple‑digit YoY while delivering enterprise‑level reporting for SMB–mid‑market brands.

Produced 100s of brand assets; 10k+ followers and content viewed by large audiences.

Core competencies: Webflow websites, WordPress/Elementor, video production, SEO/SEM, PPC (Google/LinkedIn/Meta), CRO, A/B testing, UTM/attribution, GA4, GTM (server‑side), Looker Studio, ABM, marketing automation (HubSpot/Klaviyo), CMP/consent management (Axeptio), sales enablement, stakeholder alignment, vendor management.

And 100's of DTC brands for content and ad creation.

I’ve been seeing a wave of videographer job posts lately—and too many of them are packed with 🚩🚩🚩

A few common red flags:

🚩 “We need one video, but also 10 reels, drone footage, editing, motion graphics, and voiceovers.”
That’s not a solo project—that’s an entire media team. Be real about the scope (and budget).

🚩 Budget: $500–$5,000
This tells me you either don’t know what you need, or you’re hoping to get champagne on a beer budget. A single well-produced brand video alone can run $5K+.

🚩 “Looking for someone who can shoot, edit, and post all content weekly”
Cool, but are you supplying a brief? A shot list? Feedback loop? Or just expecting someone to magically “go viral”?

If you're hiring a videographer, clarity and respect for the craft go a long way. 

Good creative starts with a solid partnership—not vague expectations and an impossible to-do list.

🎥 Pro tip: If you want strategy and execution, that’s usually two roles (or a team).

Boutique Marketing Leader | Websites • Video • Performance | 11k+ network | Content and consent-first analytics for B2B Data Centers, Smart Lighting and Spaces, Manufactures, SaaS and DTC brands.

By placing storytelling at the core of consent, Axeptio breaks away from “consent fatigue” and reimagines compliance as a new growth lever. 

What was once a regulatory obligation now becomes a stage: a new communication channel where brands can engage audiences, build trust, and convert attention into performance.

No alternative text description for this image

I’m an incredibly direct person.

Lately I’ve been leaning on ChatGPT to help me tailor messages, but even then… people are people.

You can do the research, read the room, run the personality tests, and still land on a phrase that rubs someone the wrong way. So I try not to beat myself up chasing the “perfect” wording.

That’s also why I still value in-person so much. Meetings, time together, real conversations—it clears up what text can’t.

In the last week nearly all of our clients have booked more work for 2026 and reaffirmed their partnership with Chasing Creative. 

WHAT A GIFT BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS! 

Thank you to all our clients and friends we appreciate you.

In 2025 I planned on doing fractional marketing for brands or SaaS companies. And we have done that.

But what has propelled our growth is our knack for getting things done with websites and videos. 

I've personally launched several websites and visited places all over the US and one international to create video content. 

No big budgets, no big crew, and no fluff.

The results are my clients are getting 50x the content without the massive price tag. 

Is it still an investment?  Yes. A partnership, 100% we need client review and feedback to get things dialed in. 

And we can't wait to build on this in 2026. 

Video was a passion that turned into a line item. Now that is cool.

Life is all about collaboration—that is fuel for us at Chasing Creative. Here is a little behind the scenes of our rooftop bar scene we staged at @sipontheroof for an upcoming video produced by Grey Matter Group. Thanks to SIP Cocktail Bar, Manifest Distilling, DuBlasé Whiskey, our models and crew for bringing great energy and passion to this project. 

Stay tuned to see how Grey Matter Group uses our secret (for now) drone shots for their latest project!

One intro can change the game for a small company like Chasing Creative. 

We've had current clients this year recommend us to 1-2 partners of theirs—the result has been a mix of projects and small but powerful MRR growth for a solo agency built around contractors. 

The result is new projects launched, creatives hired by our firm, and contractors hired by our firm to complete projects on their behalf. 

No managing an outsourced or internal team. Lite agency management and easy pivoting budget to new projects if something isn't working as a campaign or tactic. 

That is because our end goal is relationships and LTV. Not, big paydays and see you again in 5 years.

I've been running and gunning this week. Time for some RnR in Willamette Valley for a couple days.

Transparency and trust are at the core of what we do at Chasing Creative. 🌟 Every pitch is unique, tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients. 

We pride ourselves on providing clear timelines and honest numbers, ensuring sustainable growth for both our agency and our clients. Recently, a major brand thanked us for our transparency, highlighting the importance of building genuine relationships over quick profits. 

Let's continue to redefine what it means to be a marketing agency, Chasing Creative. 

#Transparency #SustainableGrowth #ChasingCreative

Let’s get creative—but that also means keeping things simple. A clear message travels farther. Most marketing is repeating the same offer and the same promise again and again. The style can shift and the format can change, but the core value should always be unmistakable.

I've been working with and installing Axeptio's privacy compliance tool on my clients websites over the last two years. It's easy to install, has loads of built in options and stylization, and most of all its compliant in the regions that matter most. #cookie #privacy #consent

If you create content you are used to people taring a page from your strategy—this means you are doing it right. 

But you have to continue to create new ways to engage as old methods will be repeated and overdone. 

Finding new ways to engage with your current audience and network is key to business growth today. 

In 2026 you will see more transparency on LinkedIn—still professional in tone but drawing back the curtain a bit more. 

Just wait.

Momentum beats motivation. 🚀 

In my work with various clients, I've seen how overwhelming tasks and approval processes can dampen motivation. 

But when you build momentum through consistency, you achieve small wins and collaborate more effectively. 

Set a roadmap for your business, and watch motivation follow. #Momentum #BusinessGrowth #Leadership

Life feels different lately.
Less stress. More momentum. I’m genuinely excited about the work again. 

Some clients even say, “Why are you so fired up all the time?”

Easy answer: this is the dream.

Doing your own thing isn’t easy. I still delegate, still stay scrappy, and still get my hands dirty every day.

What has changed is clarity. Speed. And a real knack for finding solutions that actually move the needle for clients.

In 2025, we had one client that didn’t pan out. One. And that happens.

Everything else has been about alignment, execution, and building something sustainable—for us and the people we work with.

Momentum is a powerful thing when you’re clear on where you’re going.

Agency life isn’t about balance—and honestly, that fits me.

If you’ve worked with me, you know I move fast, have a lot of energy, and over-communicate by default.

When I took Chasing Creative full-time, it started with just a handful of clients and projects—enough to build a foundation, but not without pressure.

Going from a six-figure salary with benefits and equity to building from zero was wild.

What made it intense? A couple of retainers.

 What if one churned? How many months could we float?

That’s where planning mattered.

I knew one of my largest clients might shift budget. It made sense. And they did—cut the retainer in half.

But I saw it as a win.

They chose to keep working together, even at a smaller scope. And I felt the same—some clients feel like family. Budgets change. That’s real.

Over the last year, I focused on stacking smaller retainers—especially around website management.

 Affordable for startups and mid-sized teams, but meaningful when they compound.

That shift made losing 50% of one retainer far less painful.

And it works. One client saved $12K a year by leaving an agency charging double for similar work.

Why share this?

If you’re starting out: build a foundation first.

 Then add supporting pillars—services or offers that stack over time.

That’s how things stabilize.

 That’s how you grow without panic.

Hi there!

I'm Katya, a growth-focused professional with a diverse background and over seven years of experience in managing and scaling businesses.

My journey has led me to some amazing accomplishments, such as:

* Driven revenue growth for 7 DTC brands that I managed from 0 to $16 million bootstrapped.
* Founded a ecom digital marketing agency and a brand management agency for 8 figures brands
* Have raised over $150K in 2 weeks for charity, led a network of 100 volunteers in Ukraine.
* Worked with clients like SNOW, STRONGER, OODIE, managing budgets up to 7 figures.

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with fantastic clients like SNOW, STRONGER, OODIE, GOODIEANDCO, and more, managing budgets up to 9 figures and building remote teams from the ground up. I'm always eager to take on new challenges and find innovative ways to help businesses grow.

But my passion doesn't stop with business growth. In response to the war in Ukraine, I co-founded DIDO, a non-profit organization aimed at reinventing and decentralizing charity systems. By leveraging my expertise in e-commerce and fundraising, I've been able to support a network of volunteers and create a new model of charity that benefits small businesses and the communities they serve.

My unique background, including finishing medical college and later transitioning to dancing, has given me a wide range of skills and experiences that I bring to my work. I believe that embracing our diverse interests and passions is what makes us truly unique and capable of driving positive change in the world.

In my spare time, I enjoy engaging in conversations about #mentalhealth, #impactdrivencommerce, #purpose, and #impact. I believe that sharing our thoughts, feelings, and emotions is crucial to fostering meaningful connections and driving positive change in the world.

#As I continue to embrace new challenges and opportunities, I remain committed to helping businesses evolve into impactful, purpose-driven organizations that make a real difference. Let's make the world a better place, together!

As the managing director my role was to oversee the operations of all departments for the 7 DTC brands.

Together with the team we grew from 1000 to 16m in revenue bootstrapped.

Scaled a team from 4 to 42 people remotely. 

I also launched the creator agency, where we build brands for large creators and influencers.
