Consultancy framework

I have over 15 years of experience in branding, employer branding, marketing and communication.

From NGOs to startups and corporations.

With tangible results, in projects built from scratch.

About me

SmartDreamers where I was a co-founder, attracted investments of over 3 million euros.

This is how it became a successful startup with international exposure and contracts with global clients at a group level, such as UiPath, Renault, Siemens, Genpact, L’Oreal, Eaton, Kaufland, and more.

I created the SmartDreamers brand from scratch, starting with the name and logo.

At E.ON, I led and implemented national-level employer branding operations.

I increased the positive exposure of the employer brand.

Which led to an increase in the number of applicants and the quality of individuals attracted, ranging from complex job roles to trainee / graduate programs.

I conducted specific campaigns, successfully filling challenging positions to recruit.

For example, the 40 programmers recruited for E.ON Software Development for the new division in Iași.

Below, you can see the organizations where I have contributed and developed so far:

  • BrandsTalk - advertising agency

  • National Museum for Contemporary Art - PR internship

  • L’Oreal - assistant manager

  • Telekom - product management B2B

  • AsociaÈ›ia Komunitas - project management and communication

  • KulturTrip - my own NGO

  • SmartDreamers - cofounder + marketing & communication manager

  • E.ON Romania - employer branding

  • Freelancing

Recommendations


Ana Maria Matei
Human Resources Director
E.ON

Marius joined E.ON Romania at a pivotal moment, as we were building the local employer branding team.

He effectively led and implemented operations within the department, employing a blend of creativity and strategy, that yielded remarkable results.

He significantly enhanced the visibility and positive perception of the E.ON employer brand, as confirmed by employees of competing companies in the energy sector.

He improved both the quality and quantity of attracting new candidates across diverse fields, from programmers to young graduates.

This translated into an expanded and improved perception of the E.ON employer brand.

CEO & Co Founder
SmartDreamers

Adrian Cernat - CEO SmartDreamers

Together, we founded the company SmartDreamers.

Being a startup, we had to compensate for limited resources, with a highly effective brand strategy.

From the company name to various other details and operations, Marius managed to create a brand strategy that represented us (the team and co-founders), as well as job candidates and recruiters from large companies.

He successfully generated significant website traffic and impressive conversions with a limited budget, incomparably smaller than the resources available to major players in the market.

The brand, its results, and the vision, helped us gain the trust of investors across multiple rounds of investments.

Our Facebook page rapidly grew to over 100,000 likes in a short span, with a similar number of accounts / CVs created on the platform.

Thanks to the brand, we were able to attract notable personalities to our blog.
Some of them include Andi Moisescu, Andreea Esca, Răzvan Pascu, Adi Hădean and Raluca Feher.


Doctor Aurel Mașca
CEO Aesthetic Dental Clinic

Masca Aurel - Aesthetic Dental Clinic


In the consulting process, what I appreciated was the clear, meticulous, and comprehensive approach.

From the research phase, where a qualitative study was conducted with the clinic's clients, to the creative aspect of the approach and the proposed solutions.

Additionally, Marius conducted research on the competition's brand communication.

It was the first time, when I felt I had someone objective and detached, to discuss business matters with.

Simultaneously, I liked the fact that things were done in a "scientific" manner, starting from real data gathered during research, not just subjective ideas.

As a result, we were able to implement a series of new customer experiences, that led to higher customer loyalty.

Fast Company


A customer often chooses a brand more emotionally or unconsciously

Approximately 90% of decisions are made unconsciously, not based on rational choices where economic arguments take precedence.
