Repositioned the brand from “beauty services” to skin health, Healthy Aging, and long-term wellness
Defined brand narrative, tone of voice, and customer promise

In Year 5, I led the brand strategy for Assai’s expansion to southern Athens with a seaside location at Astir Beach, adapting the brand experience, treatment menus, and communication for an international and seasonal audience.
A key innovation was the introduction of a personalized digital navigation system on the official website, allowing users to filter content by gender, age, and life stage (including pregnancy), and receive tailored Beauty Programs and treatment recommendations - reinforcing Assai’s positioning in personalized skin health and medical wellness.
