I’m Carlo Kiksen

Over the years, I've worked with 50+ brands, artists, and creators on their digital presence, exploring strategies and opportunities for growth.

In my strategies, I prioritise leveraging human behaviour over exploiting algorithms.

My goal is to get people to stop scrolling, make a stellar first impression, and cultivate them into loyal fans.

My expertise lies in creative marketing, content strategies and social media strategies.

The shutdown of Revue inspired me to publish newsletters again, this time in English and a short edition format containing instant learning.
