Five principles that sum up how I work: if you don't own it, it isn't an asset; good marketing doesn't make things up; measure or do nothing; think first, then execute; whoever works on your project answers for it.

The story

From doer to strategist

Not much biography, plenty of context: why I think the way I do.

I didn't start out as a consultant. I started out as someone who wanted to do marketing properly.

I studied Audiovisual Communication in Seville because sound and design were what drove me. The degree didn't give me either of them in any depth, so I taught myself. Halfway through, feeling the vertigo of a job market that shows no mercy in Spain, I took a master's in digital marketing alongside my degree.

That's where I discovered personal branding and fell in love with an idea that still defines everything I do today: marketing should show what a brand really is, not invent what it isn't.

Then came the agencies. I worked at several in Seville. I learnt fast. But I also learnt that at most agencies you're a resource, not a professional. Exploitative hours, projects with no strategy behind them, clients who never know who is really handling their brand.

The lesson that changed everything. During a spell in Barcelona, I started creating content about personal branding on Twitter (now X). I did it out of conviction. And it worked: I built a real audience. But I didn't make a single euro. I wasn't self-employed, I had no defined services, I had no website. I had visibility with no system. That experience is where everything I do today comes from.

Today, that's Auve Nico. Doing websites, SEO, social media, advertising and branding since 2018. All of it, with my own hands. That gives me something a PowerPoint consultant will never have: when I diagnose, I know what I'm talking about. I've been in the trenches.

I've already done the doing. What drives me now is thinking, diagnosing, leading the process and making sure every action makes sense and can be measured. I think like a strategist because I first worked as a technician.

What I believe in

Five principles, one way of working

They're convictions, not slogans. I argue them in my content and prove them through my work.

01

If you don't own it, it isn't an asset

Your website is your ground. Social networks are borrowed ground.

02

Good marketing doesn't make things up

It highlights what's good, listens and helps you improve.

03

Measure or do nothing

Without data there's no strategy, only faith.

04

Think first, then execute

Action without diagnosis is noise.

05

Whoever works on your project answers for it

No filters, no middlemen, no surprises.
