ABOUT US
WE BUILD & SUPPORT
LIFE-TRANSFORMING BRANDS
in the industries of Personal Development and Holistic Wellness.
Our founder is building a Self Actualization & Meditation Retreat Center in South America and could be one of our clients, so the life-transforming industries of Personal Development and Holistic Wellness are also her passion and mission. We apply our expertise in branding solely to these industries not only to support our own mission, but so that our days of making a living are also making a contribution towards freeing humanity from society's limiting systems and lifting it up on the path of self-actualization. For us, aligning these two areas of expertise is with one goal in mind: so that more and more people are freed to reach their potential - finding their song, living it and sharing it with the world.
AREAS OF TRANSFORMATION
OUR CLIENTS SPECIALIZE IN:
INTELLECTUAL
MENTAL/
EMOTIONAL
SPIRITUAL

NUTRITIONAL
RELATIONAL
FREEDOM PARTNERSHIPS
Mission-driven partnerships where FREEDOM is the goal for all people involved.
FREEDOM FOR EACH PARTNER
FREEDOM is different for the three different partners in our partnerships. For you brand leaders, what a huge relief it is to have experts taking care of your brand so you are freed up to focus on what you do best. For your clients, what a huge relief it is to have the knowledge, support and resources you provide them so they can transform their lives. And for our network of freelancers, what a huge relief it is when quality work is delivered to them so they don't have to go after it and can enjoy the freelance life that allows them the flexibility to also pursue their calling.
Though freedom for all of us may be slightly different, for all of us it is...
FREEDOM: reaching and living in our full potential
our founder
Emily Barahona
FOR YOU
Freedom is focusing on your calling while experts you can trust join your team and work alongside them to cultivate your brand's culture and manage your brand's marketing plan execution. Freedom is having CBO level support and a full-service team at your fingertips without having the financial burden of hiring them all as full time employees. Freedom is collaborating with people who are experts in your industry and just as fired up as you are about your mission!
FOR YOUR CLIENTS
Freedom is coming to you to be liberated from the systems and false and/or limiting beliefs that have been keeping them from their potential in certain areas. You educate them, give them products and resources, and help them end old habits to design a better way of living. Through you, your clients are on a path to reach their potential in your area of self actualization. Liberation from what held them back and reaching their potential is freedom and the kind of mission we want to support.
FOR OUR FREELANCERS
Freedom is working from home as a freelancer and living an independent, flexible lifestyle from anywhere in the world. However, what if you could live that life, without managing online sales and worrying about if you will have enough work this month? In addition to sales and income you can count on, FreeMe provides access to industry resources, an efficient project management system, industry training, professional resources, personal development and a fun, caring team to support you and collaborate with. FreeMe encourages and supports the freelance life so that, with our support, our team is free to design their lives and reach their goals on their own terms.
IS YOUR BRAND REACHING & LIVING IN ITS FULL POTENTIAL?
CLIENT FREEDOM
Branding is not just pretty graphics for marketing materials.
BRANDING IS YOUR IDENTITY.
And your identity isn't just the color and typography selections in your style guide
and a tagline about what you do.
YOUR IDENTITY IS YOUR COMPANY'S PERSONALITY, AND...
-
It's your behavior.
-
It's HOW you do things.
-
It's the motivation in WHY you do what you do.
-
It's how you communicate with your customer.
-
It's how you treat your team members.
-
It is your core values.
-
It is your CULTURE.
-
It is where branding begins and where the external presence should be built from - from the INSIDE-OUT.
OUR BRAND PHILOSOPHY
IDENTITY-BASED BRANDING BUILT FROM THE INSIDE-OUT
This is why we say that...
BRANDING STARTS WITH HR
Because this identity and culture is cultivated from every stage of the employee life cycle starting with the selection process, and why it's good to have a Chief Branding Officer partner with your HR Director.
Once you determine our IDENTITY as a company and begin to build it from the inside-out by cultivating the company culture, now you have an authentic brand that your customer can connect to on an emotional level to then form a lasting relationship. An authentic brand will also attract the right people to your team - people who are not there just for the paycheck, but because they believe in what you believe in, which is crucial if you are building a movement of life transformation.
BRANDING TIP FOR YOUR INDUSTRY
Brands in the industries of life transformation are held to an even higher standard
of knowing their identity and living it as their industry is all about
helping their customer understand theirs.
If you want to transform lives, then your internal culture and company identity
must live and breathe the purpose of your movement.
If you want to build a movement, then it must be built from the INSIDE-OUT.
Brand agency work can be done virtually from anywhere. When our founder moved from the States to Ecuador 8 years ago, she just picked up her clients and took them with her. These are clients who are still with her now for 10+ years. In these modern times of managing an entire company and a whole team of people virtually, the question isn't if you can, it is how can you do it intelligently. Many outsource work to talent in Asia, but Emily not only speaks the Spanish language and has a heart for supporting people in the Latin American community, but she also recognizes the enormous conveniences of working with talent in the same North American time zones. By building a network of freelancers across South America (in Ecuador, Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina and Chile) she furthered her cause to support the developing Latin American community, and she simultaneously created a win-win for her freelancers and her clients. She brings her team regular work from quality clients, and she is able to deliver to her clients quality work done quickly and efficiently by a talented, full-service team! A win-win for everyone!

A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER TO HER TEAM
I couldn't be more proud of this amazing team of people. Not only are they talented, committed, hard workers who always deliver quality work on time, but they are wonderful people! We have attracted highly compatible personalities all aligned with our company culture and mission, which is why we all work so well together! We enjoy the adventure together as we have all become good friends! I have only met a few in person, yet many have been with me for 5+ years and we know each other very well. This is the beauty of technology. We are able to achieve so much together despite living miles apart in 5 different countries. My focus is building a strong team as the quality of our team is what delivers quality for our clients.
