About Rose Marques
Background
From the islands of Spain to the vibrant streets of New York City, my path has been far from linear and full of variety. I have 10+ years of experience in corporate where I worked at companies like LinkedIn, Squarespace, and Calm. I've worked in various functions including marketing, communications, sales, and HR. I've launched global marketing campaigns, implemented new programs and channels, advised customers across nearly every industry, delivered hundreds of presentations, and built scaled processes to help businesses grow. I am also a former startup founder and I’ve participated in two early-stage accelerator programs.
Each experience has allowed me to understand the ins and outs of business more holistically - why some strategies succeed, and others fail. The breadth of these roles has shaped me into the versatile leader I am today.
My purpose
After a decade in corporate coupled with my startup founder experience, I realized my true purpose – which is to help individuals and entrepreneurs bring their “it” to life. We all have ideas, goals, and aspirations that we want to bring to life. But doing it alone, or without the right guidance, can make it even more challenging, and feel depleting. I make it possible to bring those initiatives to life by first deeply understanding the ultimate goal and desired outcomes, then partnering with clients to assemble the building blocks to get there.
Combining skill & passion: Marketing & public speaking coaching
I intentionally focus on areas that fall in the quadrant of what I’m good at and what I enjoy doing. The first is helping founders and small business owners build and implement marketing strategies that grow their businesses—with a special focus on brand strategy, content marketing, product marketing, and lead generation. The second area of my business is coaching individuals on their public speaking skills so they transform into effective and confident communicators.
The other parts of me
Outside of my consulting practice, I am a wife, dog mom, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner. I approach life with a growth mindset and am in constant search of experiences that stretch me out of my comfort zone.
