About Victor

Marketing Director / Head of Brand / Part-Time with 13 years of B2C and B2B2C experience to drive brand + business growth.

Hybrid Profile, I operate across multiple categories and types of organizations,from SMEs to large corporationswith a focus on measurable impact.

Specialized inbrand platform and positioning, innovation pipeline, 360° activation, and acquisition → conversion → retention funnel optimization.

I help teams clarify their priorities, strengthen their messaging, and accelerate their growth.

I work on what makes a difference:
  • A clear, differentiating brand mission.
  • A strong and consistent identity across all touchpoints.
  • A 3-year innovation pipeline that structures growth and consolidates pillars.
  • Memorable 360° campaigns (TV, OOH, print, digital, retail, social, e-commerce, influence).
  • A sustainable acquisition and retention system (SEO/SEA, ads, content, CRM, UX, loyalty).
  • Management of aligned, empowered, and organized teams around simple, clear, and measurable objectives.
Types of missions:brand platform, repositioning, innovation roadmap, part-time marketing director, 360° plan, acquisition/retention strategy, funnel optimization, marketing structuring.

Common thread:building coherent brands, developing desirable products, and orchestrating activations that recruit.

My playground:cosmetics, consumer goods, lifestyle, tech, decoration, and furniture sectors, from accessible brands to premium players.

In parallel:I also design and restore custom furniture, manual work that enriches my design sensibility, my understanding of materials, and my sense of craftsmanship in forms and uses. (@atelier.victor.cabanas)
