& CREATIVE
STRATEGIST FOR EXPERIENCE-LED BRANDS
About
Most marketing problems aren't marketing problems.
They're positioning problems. Clarity problems. The product is strong, the brand has a real reputation but the story hasn't kept up. So the campaigns feel scattered, the messaging feels generic, and the budget keeps going in without enough coming back out.
I'm Nabila, founder of Curious & Creative. I'm a brand and campaign strategist who works with founder and MD-led businesses in travel, hospitality and lifestyle to get clear on what they stand for and build marketing that reflects it.
The work I do sits at the foundation: positioning, narrative, campaign architecture, content strategy, and partnerships. Getting that thinking right is what makes everything else — the channels, the content, the spend — start to perform.
I don't add more activity. I bring structure to what's already there, and direction to what comes next.

MARKETING STRATEGY FOR EXPERIENCE-LED BRANDS
Services
BRAND STRATEGY & POSITIONING
Most briefs land here: something feels off, but no one can quite name it. I find the gap between where your brand is positioned and where it needs to be, and build the strategic foundation to close it. The work that makes every other marketing decision easier.
CAMPAIGN ARCHITECTURE
A campaign without a strategic spine is just content with a deadline. I design campaigns from the inside out; rooted in a clear proposition, built around the right audiences, and structured to build momentum rather than just fill a calendar.
CONTENT & PARTNERSHIP STRATEGY
Content works when it's connected to something - a clear positioning, a narrative, a commercial goal. Partnerships work when they're rooted in brand identity, not just reach. I design both so they reinforce each other and earn their place in the plan.
NARRATIVE & MESSAGING
What you say, how you say it, and where. These aren't executional decisions, they're strategic ones. I develop the messaging architecture that gives your brand a clear, consistent voice across every channel and every conversation.
STRATEGY POWER HOUR
One focused session. One specific challenge. You bring the problem - a campaign that isn't landing, a growth moment you need to think through clearly. You leave with direction and frameworks you can act on immediately.

How I Work
Start with the real problem
Most briefs describe a symptom. Before any strategy, I invest time to understand what's actually going on - your market, your audience, your growth constraints, and where the real opportunity sits.
Build the foundation, then the plan
Positioning, messaging and narrative come before channels and campaigns. The strategic work has to be right before the executional work can perform. That order matters — and it's what separates marketing that stacks up from marketing that burns budget.
Leave you with something usable
Strategy only has value if it can be acted on. Everything I produce is clear, practical and ready to be used, whether that's by your team, alongside me, or both.
