Hey there,
I’m Carissa!
I help business owners increase their sales tenfold through omnichannel marketing.
Hello, I am Carissa Noromor, and I have over ten years of experience in the digital marketing industry. As the Chief Executive Officer of Emerge, a full-service digital marketing firm based in the Philippines, I dedicate my efforts to assisting businesses in navigating the dynamic landscape of digital marketing and transforming it into effective strategies that yield tangible results.
I serve as a reliable resource for all aspects of marketing, ranging from executing impactful Facebook advertising campaigns to developing comprehensive strategies and optimizing operations.
Founding and Early Leadership at Emerge
Carissa Noromor co-founded Emerge, an omnichannel-driven creative marketing agency, in 2011. She played a pivotal role in establishing the agency’s foundation and vision. From August 2013 to April 2023, she served as Chief Marketing Officer, where she was instrumental in developing and implementing innovative marketing strategies that significantly enhanced client engagement and brand visibility. Her leadership during this period laid a strong foundation for the agency’s reputation and client relationships.
In April 2023, Carissa transitioned to the role of Chief Operating Officer, a position she held until April 2024. During this time, she focused on optimizing operational processes and executing strategic initiatives to improve the agency’s overall efficiency. This shift allowed her to refine the internal workings of Emerge, ensuring that the agency could effectively support its growing client base and adapt to the evolving market landscape.
In 2021, Emerge made a significant decision to go national, relocating its headquarters from Pampanga to Manila. Now based in Ortigas, the agency has partnered with established clients, including The Medical City Clark, Hann Resorts, Filinvest, OMNI Aviation, Clark Airport, Cindy’s Bakery, and Converge. To further enhance its service offerings, Emerge launched several micro-services designed to provide focused, market-specific solutions, including EmergeFluence (short-form content marketing), EmergeMedia (media strategy and placements), and EmergeOffshore (talent outsourcing for clients abroad).
Current Leadership and Future Aspirations
Since April 2024, Carissa has served as Chief Executive Officer, leading Emerge with a clear vision and strategic direction. She is committed to exploring new tools and strategies in digital marketing while also planning to engage in more speaking and mentoring opportunities to share her knowledge. Outside of her professional endeavors, Carissa enjoys watching forensic documentaries and values her downtime on weekends. She remains excited about the future of digital marketing and is dedicated to helping clients navigate the landscape with a positive approach and solid planning.
