Growth
Strategist
Strategist
Do one thing well
Over the last seven years, I worked with 6 and 7 figure businesses helping them increase revenue and minimize complexity within the business.
Some clients worked with me via UpWork (the biggest freelance platform in the world), and there I became the top-rated performance-based growth strategist.
That’s it.
Nothing else.
No distractions.
Not kidding myself that I can be good at everything.
Not trying to conquer the whole world. I just do my best to conquer my bit of it.
I’m Marko, the guy behind this website.
My curiosity lies at the intersection of business growth and self-awareness. That’s what I’m fascinated by.
But let’s not beat around the bush here…
You’re on this website because you want to improve your business and maybe learn something new, not to hear my life story.
If you are interested in that (and I’m flattered), I will give you the short version of why I’m doing what I’m doing.
Story
Before having the courage to do what I deeply care about, I was all over the place.
For most of my life, I was a self-improvement junkie. I was a passive spectator, consuming information and jumping from one job to another.
Sharing this info probably does not present me in the best way, but I don’t care. I just care about the truth.
To paint a picture of progression, here’s a quick overview…
Process
- I worked as a door-to-door salesman, then as a massage therapist, and finally finished medical school to work as a dental technician.
- A family tragedy made me realize the value of both mental and physical health. This resulted in me obsessing over my health, becoming a lot more introspective and changing my job role… again.
- I started working on cruise ships as a fitness instructor and in short period of time was top performing employee, so I became fitness director.
Here’s a video of an award and transition from fitness instructor to director:
- Regardless of wonderful experience, working for someone else (and not having time for introspection) was not for me, so I’ve changed my job…again and went to the freelance route.
- As a freelancer I was working on projects around web design, user experience, copywriting and marketing.
- I have became a Top Rated freelancer on UpWork, specialized as growth strategist and founded my consultancy.
- While developing growth strategies, I’ve gained irreplaceable depth of experience in what it takes to grow online businesses, so I worked only based on performance, meaning I got paid only based on results.
Today
After years of self discovery, introspection and constantly working with business owners, I have gained unique set of insights.
So, today I exclusively work with business owners, share my knowledge, and continue to relentlessly educate myself on topics that increase revenue, self-awareness, and the implementation of AI. It’s maybe a weird mix, but hey, that’s what I love to do day in and day out.
How I Can Personally Help
As mentioned, I am performance-based growth strategist helping business increase revenue.
I am not a marketing agency and I don’t have intention to become one.
Over the years, I’ve continuously improved process specifically for online business growth. I call it the Clarity Blueprint, and it is the main thing I offer.
If you are skeptical and need more proof, I get it. There are a lot of charlatans out there, especially in marketing, but just in case, here’s my UpWork profile and LinkedIn profile.
I take on projects via UpWork, but the majority of my work comes directly from referrals or via this website.

What proof of knowledge do you have? Do you have any credentials or certifications? Everyone knows that results and great feedback from customers are the real proof of your knowledge. You can see that on the Clarity Blueprint page or in my UpWork profile. Although I don’t see credentials as something important, I do have completed certifications from Google, Hubspot, SEMRush and Digital Marketer.

Where are you from and where do you live? I’m from Serbia and am currently living there. It’s amazing place to live! People who haven’t visited Eastern Europe usually have a negative bias towards it, but it couldn’t be further from the truth. I have visited 43 countries and Serbia is wonderful place to live in.
Why are you interested in this weird mix of personal development and business growth? It’s what I’m drawn to. I believe it is crucial to merge and understand both perspectives.
