Helping conscious spas build thriving businesses by embracing wellness

“Spas are fundamentally about healing and wellness. When facilities embrace this concept and implement it with purpose and intention, not only do they give guests what they expect, they are building long-term sustainable success.”
– Irene Macabante, Founder & CEO

The Collective Difference

We start with a spa and wellness branding & marketing perspective as our primary area of specialization.

While other consultants outsource to marketers who often don’t specialize in spa and wellness, we offer wellness-based marketing services.

We have web, tech & online expertise such as website design & development, SEO, online advertising, social media, online booking design & implementation.

The Citrine Consulting Collective is a team of spa and wellness experts who have a combined 85+ years of experience in branding and marketing.

You wouldn’t leave your financials in the hand of your fitness coach, so why let a generic marketing agency tell you what’s best for your wellness brand?
