Liv Leivo

Marketing, people & good ideas.

I'm Liv. I study marketing and I learn most of it by doing — selling, writing, filming, fixing. I'm interested in why people choose what they choose, and how an idea becomes something someone actually cares about.

I like understanding why things work brands, people, ideas, decisions.

I'm early in my career. That's exactly why I'm trying everything I can.

01 — About

A little about me.

I'm Liv, 19, from Tallinn. I've always been pulled towards the place where creativity has to earn its keep — why one brand stays in your head, why one message lands and the next one disappears, why a small detail can change how the whole thing feels.

At EBS that curiosity turned practical. I took responsibility for marketing in a student company, sold to real customers face to face, and learned fast that a good-looking idea means very little until someone chooses it.

Since then I've worked with social media, helped family businesses with content, spent time in hospitality, and kept learning by doing rather than by waiting.

The next chapter is Madrid.

02 — Journey

How I got here.

  1. 012007 →

    Tallinn

    Grew up here. Still the reference point for everything I compare things to.

  2. 0210 years

    Cross-country skiing

    Competitive skiing through most of my childhood. It set the pace for how I work.

  3. 032023–2026

    EBS Gümnaasium

    Entrepreneurship & Digital Technology. School where the business had to be real.

  4. 042024–2025

    Student company

    Head of Marketing. Positioning, content, fairs, and a lot of direct selling.

  5. 05Since 2023

    Family businesses

    Social media and content — the first place I could test ideas properly.

    Marketing studies in Spanish, in a city I chose on purpose.

03 — Experience

Where I've actually worked.

01

Student company — EBS programme

Head of Marketing 2024–2025

At EBS, marketing stopped being something I studied and became something I had to make work.

I led the marketing side of a student company: positioning, the social accounts, the content plan, and how we talked about the product. I also stood behind the table at fairs, sold directly, pitched, and listened to why people said no. That part taught me more than any slide.

Restaurant NOA

Hospitality & administrative work 2026

Hospitality showed me the side of a brand people experience rather than see in an ad.

Working in a premium Tallinn restaurant meant standards you keep whether or not anyone is watching: preparation, coordination between people, consistency across a full service, and attention to details guests notice only when they're missing.

Family businesses

Social media & content Since 2023

My earliest marketing was helping businesses close to home say things more clearly online.

Photos, captions, posting rhythm, tone of voice — and the honest feedback loop of seeing what people react to. Small budgets, real audiences, and enough freedom to experiment and be wrong quickly.

Madrid

Continuing marketing studies in Madrid — new language, new market, same curiosity.

05 — Skills

Things I'm getting better at.

06 — Languages

Meeldiv tutvuda.

Hover or tap a language
07 — Discipline

Before marketing, there were skis.

For about ten years competitive cross-country skiing was a big part of my life. It taught me something I still use: improvement is far less dramatic than people imagine. You repeat the work, make small corrections, and one day the difference is obvious.

08 — Off the clock

The person behind the CV.

Travelling, hiking, drawing, skiing, and an ongoing habit of noticing why places, menus and shopfronts are built the way they are.

09 — Values

Curiosity

I'd rather ask one question too many than pretend I already understood.

Precision

Details stay small only until somebody gets them wrong.

Honesty

I'm comfortable saying I don't know yet. It just means there's work to do.

Discipline

Ten years of sport made showing up on ordinary days feel normal.

10 — Contact

Madrid is next.Maybe we shouldwork together there.

Internships, marketing projects, collaborations, interesting companies — or simply a conversation worth having.
