Elle Marketing & Events
Lydia Martinez, owner Elle Marketing & Events
Some businesses are carefully planned. Elle Marketing and Events was sparked by something bolder — a moment of clarity.
After years climbing the corporate ladder in marketing, Lydia Martinez was offered the promotion she’d been working toward. Instead of taking it, she surprised everyone, including herself. She turned it down, quit two days later, and launched her own company with nothing but her laptop, one client, and a belief that storytelling could change the trajectory of a brand.
The leap wasn’t glamorous. There were no guarantees, no cushion, and no roadmap. But Lydia had spent her entire career learning how to find the heart of a story, and she trusted that instinct. The turning point came as clients not only sought her out for strategy, but for the way she and her team could make a brand feel lived-in, human, and memorable.
Food quickly became part of the company’s DNA. Cheese festivals, chef collaborations, restaurant launches — if it involved great ingredients and creative people, Elle Marketing found its way into the center of it. Over time, Lydia built a team of skilled marketing storytellers: journalists who understand narrative, photographers who catch emotion in one frame, designers who make meaning visual, and event planners who build experiences people keep talking about.
