About The Budding Marketer

My name is Olga Tsimaraki. I’m a Digital Marketing Consultant, but that was not always the case. I’m self-taught.

In 2014, while studying to become a Computer Engineer, I discovered my love for marketing and I focused on learning about it.

I read books, subscribed to newsletters and YouTube channels, completed every possible free course online, and volunteered my time as a Communications Manager (which mostly meant taking care of the website and social media).

In 2017, I got my first marketing internship, and a year later – with only 2 years of actual marketing experience – I landed my dream job! 

I became (and still am) a Marketing Consultant for Zima Media. I’ve been working from home with clients all over the world for over 3 years, and I’ve recently transitioned to marketing training, which I absolutely love, and was promoted to Chief Operations Officer. 

I know the struggles of starting out in marketing. I know what someone needs to do to succeed. I’ve been there, done that.

And now, I want you help you through this.

I want to help new, self-taught, and junior marketers discover what makes them tick, visualize their dream careers, and become exactly the marketers they want to be.

In The Media

The Vision

I want to create a one-stop community for all you junior and soon-to-be marketers out there.

Through articles and videos, I want to help you learn the tools and soft skills you need to build your marketing career.

Through courses and mentoring, I will offer you personalized and more detailed advise on any aspect of a marketer’s life – whether that is actual marketing tutorials, client management, or personal development, career counseling, and work/life balance.

In one sentence, I will give you all the tools, resources, inspiration, and support you need, to get your dream life as a marketer.

The Values

  • EDUCATION. Life-long learning is how you grow. Marketing is changing everyday because people change.
  • CURIOSITY. This is where everything starts for marketers. Nothing is set in stone. You need to be curious, learn new things, and try them out.
  • PASSION. About marketing, about learning, about helping others. Passion is in the core of The Budding Marketer, as without it, none of us would be here.
  • COMMUNITY. I want you to feel at home in this community. Ask and answer questions, and never be afraid to show who you are. No judgement, we're just here to support each other.
  • SELFLESSNESS. Everything I do and all the content I create is built with you in mind. And every marketer should think the same way.
