Your brand should lead with what makes you different, not what makes you blend in.

Who I Am

I’m Ivonne Ribeiro, a brand strategist and holistic marketing consultant based in Bradenton, Florida. I work with early-stage entrepreneurs, small business owners, and other marketers to build brands that reflect who they are and attract the right clients with intention and impact.

But this work? It didn’t come out of nowhere. It’s the product of decades of experience, plenty of pivots, and a deep belief that the most powerful brands are rooted in who you really are.

My Backstory

I didn’t set out to become a brand strategist. I just kept following the clues.

After years in corporate environments, I learned the mechanics of marketing, operations, and client experience. I helped launch a bank. I built a call center from the ground up. I led marketing and branding for organizations that taught me what worked — and what didn’t. But the deeper I went, the more I felt disconnected from the work itself. Something was always missing.

Coffee cup with 'keep it positive' message

In 2018, I took the leap and launched iSellSocial. It grew quickly, hit six figures, and looked successful on paper. But I found myself recreating the same systems I’d worked so hard to escape. I was burning out inside a business that didn’t reflect the version of me I had become.

So I pivoted. Again.

I returned to what I loved most: helping people discover who they are in business and build brands that feel like home. I turned my focus to strategic branding and holistic marketing — an approach that blends business intelligence, storytelling, website strategy, and design to create clarity, momentum, and sustainable growth.

Why I Do This Work

I know what it’s like to be overlooked, underestimated, and expected to play by someone else’s rules. I also know what it’s like to stop waiting for permission.

“Luck” favors the bold. 

That’s why I’m passionate about helping small business owners, solopreneurs, and marketers step into the full expression of who they are — no longer held back by inconsistent branding, unclear messaging, or scattered marketing efforts. It’s time to show up with confidence, clarity, and alignment.
