Social Media Strategist | Helping professionals grow influence online and monetize it effectively

Struggling with content that gets views, but no leads?
Not sure which videos or posts actually convert?
Still stuck posting without a clear monetization strategy?

You're not the problem.
The strategy is.

You’ve got two options:
1. Keep posting and hoping something clicks.
2. Or build a system that turns content into consistent, trackable revenue.

I’ve built those systems for brands with serious reach like Linguamarina (4M+ YouTube subs), vidIQ (top SaaS tool for YouTube creators), Gillette, and My Online Training Hub (a trusted name in the Excel space). Not just content but systems designed to grow email lists, generate leads, and elevate brand perception across platforms.

How? With a strategy rooted in:
→ Lead magnets that speak to real audience pain points.
→ UTM tracking + Bitly links that show what’s working.
→ Data-backed positioning that builds long-term brand equity.

I’m Alina Iatiuc. I work with founders, creators, and solopreneurs to build systems that grow visibility, attract leads, and help them charge more, all without chasing trends or burning out.

What I offer:
Lead magnet strategy, content optimization, tracking that shows what works, and a system that connects it all together.

Want a content system that actually brings leads?
Message me and let’s see if it’s the right fit.
