Digital Marketing Specialist with 8+ Years of experience

In 2019, I started a podcast called "Brand Origins" where I talk about the stories behind the biggest brands in the Philippines. I've hosted, written, and produced over 75+ episodes and has since had over 100k+ downloads.

I have designed and built my own websites as well as my client's websites using Webflow. I handle the web design part, the copywriting, and the development. Here are a couple of examples (chrisgarin.com) and (paradymeph.com).

While in college, I've bene doing side projects managing the social media accounts of local brands. After college, I started my own digital marketing agency (2015-2022). I managed a team of 10 Managed a team of 10 (designers, editors, brand managers, PR) and ensured their output maintained consistency in the brand’s message across all touch points.

I made video versions of the episodes I made for my podcast. The channel has since grown to over 25,000 subscribers and has over 1 million views on YouTube. I also made shorter versions of these clips for TikTok (9k+ followers) and Instagram (12.5k followers). You can check out my work on IG (@chris.garin)

I've run my own businesses in the past. The advertising agency I started in 2015 and ran until 2022 gave me experience in running my own company. Although my initial responsibility was to create marketing strategies, I ended up doing everything else. I acquired new clients via door-to-door cold pitches, cold calls, and online outreach. I created and presented a pitch deck to prospects, and negotiated mutually beneficial contracts. I even had to handle managing the finances of the company.
