Stanislas Gruel
Marketing Clarifier
For over 20 years, I’ve clarified complexity.
With creative expertise sharpened by strategic insight — and a healthy scepticism toward the usual buzzword parade of the trade, I help brands bring structure, direction and clarity to their marketing.
I stand for:
Marketing that speaks clearly.
Project management that aligns.
Strategy that turns data into direction.
Creativity structured to deliver.
And with all that, I’ve made a few enemies:
Presentations that lead nowhere.
Tools mistaken for strategy.
The myth that AI replaces excellence, though it can surely support it
What I can help with

A clear diagnosis of what works, what doesn’t – and how AI fits in.

About me
With a foundation in art direction and two decades shaping award-winning international campaigns, I now bring clarity to marketing through structured, visual thinking — reinforced by an Executive MBA focused on innovation and digital strategy.
My ambition: bridge the gap between vision, data, creativity and results.
