Founder

Christos Karampetsos

I founded Rise Marketing HQ in 2021 to do digital marketing the way I always thought it should be done — month-to-month, no contracts, ad spend goes to the client’s account, and the same person who sells you on the work is the one running it six months in. Five years and 106+ campaigns later, that hasn’t changed.

Filipos Maziotis

I run client accounts at Rise Marketing HQ day-to-day. Monthly account reviews, call recording analysis, negative keyword refreshes, new service-page builds, and the monthly client report — all in plain English. Business Administration graduate from the University of Athens, 2020. SEMrush-certified across Technical SEO, Off-Page SEO, and AI Search.

How We Work

The two of us run every Rise account between us — no outsourcing, no rotating staff, no overseas contractors who pick up the work when nobody’s watching.

What Each of Us Owns
  • Christos runs strategy. Discovery calls, free 24-hour audits, keyword targeting, budget allocation, campaign structure decisions, and direct client relationships. If something breaks, his phone is the one that rings.
  • Filipos runs execution. Monthly account reviews, call recording analysis, negative keyword refreshes, new service-page builds, GBP health checks, and the monthly client report.

The handoff between us is daily. Every client account has both of us in it from the first audit through year three of the engagement. That’s the whole reason clients stay month-to-month for years without contracts — the people they hired in month one are still running the account in month thirty.
