Cerstin Hannestad Portrait.jpg

Hi, I'm Cerstin.​

I'm a Creative Strategist 

working as a Brand Consultant, Startup Coach, and Creative Director.


From vision to market and beyond, I guide solopreneurs and teams through every step it takes to create and establish a distinctive, compelling brand.

FACTS & INSIGHTS

The What & Why

​

Since the last 11 years I am self-employed.

I work for agencies as well as my own clients leading their creative teams, giving workshops and business coachings focussed on brand building.

​

Bringing your vision to life – that's what I love most about my job!

​

One Decade In Advertising

​

I look back on over a decade of experience in network agencies like Ogilvy & Mather, McCann Erickson and Publicis Group. There I had the chance to work for national and international clients such as Coca Cola, Nestlé, IKEA, o2 Telefónica, L'Oreal, MAYBELLINE New York, LIDL and Media Markt.

​

Fun Facts

​

- 1,88 / 6'2".

- No, I don't play basketball.

- Yes, my parents are as tall as me.

Those are my answers to the top 3 questions people ask me first!

 

Smart tools & techniques excite me. I am into coaching and self-development. Traveling is my passion. You will always find me on some food market trying exotic stuff.

I am a sporty spice. I do bodyweight training, yoga and Muay Thai Boxing. Occasionally you will catch me running a marathon. ​

I am also deeply in love with electronic music...
