About Merino Paez

I'm a Branding & Social Media Strategist helping small businesses in gastronomy, retail, and lifestyle build authentic brands and measurable online growth.

With a background in Marketing and Business Administration, I combine creative storytelling with data-driven performance strategies. Over the past years, I’ve helped restaurants, creative studios, and independent brands grow their visibility, connect with their audience, and drive conversions through branding, paid ads, and content strategy.

What I do best:

Brand Strategy – Clarify your message, positioning, and identity to attract your ideal audience.

Social Media Management – Build a consistent, aesthetic, and strategic online presence.

Paid Ads Campaigns – Meta, Instagram, and Google Ads optimized for ROI.

Content for Food & Lifestyle Brands – Photography direction, storytelling, and visual planning.

My approach is simple: strategy first, creativity always.
Let’s make your brand stand out: authentically and effectively.

If you’re a small business looking to strengthen your online presence, I’d love to collaborate.
