Amanda Makabali
@amandamakabali
Growth & business development leader building revenue systems, scalable go-to-market strategies, and brand-driven growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a business development and growth executive with nearly a decade of experience building revenue systems, organizational structures, and scalable go-to-market strategies across consumer, creator, and tech-enabled industries. I bring a rare generalist edge across new revenue stream creation, forecasting, gap analysis, team hierarchy design, and KPI frameworks—powered by content, brand, and social.
I’ve combined hands-on brand and creative direction with operational systems to scale results fast, including growing client businesses from $0 to $4M+ in under two years. At System2/Avida, I led a full company rebrand, rebuilt the website’s value proposition and messaging, and drove zero-ad organic growth—scaling Instagram and TikTok audiences and generating 300%+ follower and lead growth. I also delivered impact metrics like 101%–422% MRR growth, $828K+ in gross revenue in 4 months for a single creator, and challenge-based campaigns that drove major lead and client increases.
After delivering measurable growth and leading that transformation, I co-founded ConvertID, a privacy-first, AI-powered adtech startup, contributing to platform development and shaping go-to-market strategy from the ground up. Now I work as an independent consultant—partnering with brands and founders to unlock growth at the intersection of strategy, operations, and culture through brand strategy, social media systems, and full-funnel content programs.
