About Our Founder
Maria Mahanes
Hi, I’m Maria, founder of Marketing Made and a passionate advocate for helping small businesses grow through smart, strategic marketing.
With over 15 years of experience in marketing roles spanning Fortune 500 corporations and small businesses, I’ve developed deep expertise in brand development, digital marketing, PR, business strategy, and more. I've led integrated campaigns, built brands from the ground up, and worked across industries, most notably IT and Amazon e-commerce.
What I’ve learned is this: so many small businesses and solopreneurs are doing incredible work, but missing key opportunities because they lack the right marketing foundation or in-house guidance. That’s why I created Marketing Made: to provide the structure, strategy, and support that lean teams need to stop guessing and start growing with confidence.
I believe great marketing doesn’t need to be overwhelming or overcomplicated; it just needs to be intentional, honest, and built to fit your business. My goal is to make it feel doable, so you can focus on what you do best.
Let’s make marketing work for you, not the other way around.
