you're in the right place.
first, let me introduce myself... my name is Zlatko. but i go by "Z"
after 13+ years of freelancing, building agencies, launching products, and helping businesses find their sweet spot in the market, i've learned that the traditional approach to business is outdated.

the things i do.
the things i've done.
i enjoy bringing things to life.
solving problems for myself and others by building digital products and services. i've dipped my feet into a number of businesses:
agency, saas, consulting, freelancing, coaching, mentoring, etc.
strategy to grow your brand
there's no blanket statement or strategy for growing a business.
work with me 1:1 and let's figure out how you can expand your footprint and grow your business.
organic content marketing
content is (still) king. businesses that choose to avoid content marketing are leaving a lot more than money on the table.
if you've been putting off "content" because it's "a lot" – i can help you fix that. reach out.
build more revenue streams
there's a revenue stream out there that you have not tapped into, yet.
you know the rule, every business should have atleast 2, if not more, revenue streams. i'll help you find those extra dollars.
tech support
technology isn't your thing and you need different apps to talk to each other?
maybe you want to know more about ai tools and automation to help your business be more efficient?
i love all of that. shoot me an email.
advising & consulting
when you need a set off new eyes, ears, and ideas – i'd love to help.
i stand alongside you (and your team) and guiding you through challenges with marketing, product, or revenue.

a bit more about me
yes i have a beard and i love animals, especially our little girl penny who is 70lbs pure puppy love.
that is a real picture of me and penny (thanks ai).
i've also spent time building a few different things on the internet: agencies, saas products, and i've helped countless businesses build brand awareness through organic content.
but what really matters? i've made a lot mistakes and learned things the hard way. i love building things from the ground up and i love seeing others win. every strategy or lesson i share comes from real experience - not theory.
over the past 4 years, i've found my passion for writing. it's become my most impactful skill over the course of my internet career. it's also my favorite form of expression for my ideas, thoughts, and experiences with the world.
writing is clarity for me.
being able to take an agency from 0 to 7-figures in a matter of 3 years and build a team of 26 people. we managed stores that did north of $5M-$15m in revenue. learning the ropes of running a bigger business and being at the helm of it all. it comes with its challenges and its victories to say the least.
i've worked on a variety of projects, everything from building ecommerce stores and apps, to building unique proprietary products and services for clients. i've been fortunate enough to spend time in different areas of the internet. made a lot of mistakes. tried a lot of things. found success in a few.
some people have said nice things
it's always nice to get these messages.
Working with Z was an excellent experience. His professionalism, expertise in marketing, and dedication to the project were outstanding. He consistently delivered high-quality work and maintained clear communication throughout our engagement. Although we had to conclude our project earlier than anticipated due to business circumstances on my end, Z's contributions were valuable and much appreciated. He demonstrated flexibility and understanding when wrapping up the project. I would highly recommend Z to anyone seeking a skilled and reliable marketing professional. His work ethic and positive attitude make him a great asset to any team.
Zlatko was exactly the mentor I needed today. The conversation began open-ended and collaborative, and somehow led to the "aha" moment that I needed to get past my current creative block. Zatko's thoughtful questions and insights were incredibly valuable, and it was a joy to get together.
When I first saw Zlatko's title "Growth Strategy," I didn't know what to think. As a startup, it's worth taking risks and investing in opportunities, so I booked him for an hour consultation. We had such a great time talking, we ended up collaborating for over three hours! It didn't take long to recognize we clearly needed Z on our team. We hired Z to bring our ideas to reality, and he delivered! If you are nervous about the process of getting started with your business and need somebody to keep you accountable, Z is exactly who you're looking for. I have full confidence that he can take your business from 0 to 100 if you allow him. He had some ideas at first that I was apprehensive about, but after deciding to go my own way, two weeks later I recognized that his approach was the best. He didn't roll his eyes at my learning curve, but instead encouraged me and was so excited when we were back on the same page to push forward. He wants nothing more than to help your business succeed. If you take the chance to talk with him for just a few minutes, you'll know what I mean. He is honest, reliable, passionate, and will understand your vision quickly—he did for me. Sending Z a quick message to say hi and schedule a chat became the best decision I've made for my company to date. I can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Z
