Melina Schmidt

Brand marketing on social media - the customer's journey from first encounter to purchase

”In entrepreneurship, I have always been fascinated by the opportunity to swing into action. I am particularly interested in how in every business and industry there is an area of expertise that can be productized into a package that can be sold online.”

Mel Schmidt is the founder of Kasvuakatemia, business bestie and brand coach. In her more than ten-year career in digital communication, branding and event marketing, Mel has worked with hundreds of international brands, local operators and sole proprietors.

In the fall of 2017, Mel published her first e-book, Menesty somessa, under the name of her advertising agency. This sparked a career as a marketing trainer and speaker. In the summer of 2021, in the middle of the pandemic, the idea of ​​the Kasvuakatemia was born: an inspiring place that would connect Finland’s best coaches and passionate entrepreneurs.

Today, Mel helps companies and the people behind them to grow with the help of branding and digital communication.
