Ivana Fakin, owner and creative director

Economist and Digital marketing specialist by profession, lover of all things creative by choice.

After a yearlong career in finance industry, she turns to entrepreneurship to pursue her love of creativity.

Her first encounter with digital technologies and web design started back in 2005., when she first started her blogs. Lack of good blog designs forced her to play with codes to customize pages she would publish her works at. This is the first time she would apply her love for visual design trough digital media.

By further educating herself in a field of Digital marketing at Algebra in 2016. she meets Vesna Odobaša and joins her starting project poslovnaedukacija.hr where by helping their clients improve their business, the two would recognize a fully neglected market of small, female owned companies in need of a good and affordable marketing strategies, and start a Digital studio.

In 2018. she left the studio in order to move her work away from the purely digital concept and founded Essenta Agency.

Through her membership in International Women’s Business Network and her lecturing, in coming years she dedicates her work further to empowering female business owners.

She continues her professional growth by participating in various seminars, workshops and conferences.
