Hi, we are Velophant.
Personal trainers for your business.
Velophant is designed for doers; business leaders and founders who are passionate about creating change but didn’t get a manual on marketing, business strategy, or how to grow.
We’ve been in your shoes. That’s why we created Velophant: to simplify the how-to of running and building your brand and business. We combine big-picture strategy and hands-on, practical execution, paired with personal growth coaching. Think of us as personal trainers for your business: we write the program, support you along the way from your coach’s corner, and make sure your “form” is on point.
Whether you're transforming your legacy or getting ready to scale. We are here to help you act and think BIG about your business. Now let’s get growing those business muscles.
Velophant founder
Hi, I’m Malina Kaija, two-time start-up founder, proud tiger momma, and seasoned marketer with over a decade of experience launching businesses, building brands, and coaching fellow entrepreneurs.
My personal mission? to help 500 women-owned businesses in 5 years.
Why work with me? I’ve lived it.
My last business grew from nothing to a six million dollar business in six years. Our second year of business COVID hit and we managed to triple our revenue.
Because I have been in your shoes - I will never be the consultant that leaves you with a concept you have no clue how to execute. I work with you to build a business and marketing plan and teach you how to bring that plan to life.

And she makes it fun and keeps it authentic! Working on our brand platform and creative expression of it was an example of all of this in action. And a true pleasure! Thanks for leading with brains and heart!
