Ethan Glines / Founder · Operator

Laie, Hawaii

Strategy. Brand. Deliver.

I’ve done it twice. In two different industries.

I build brands and systems that make complex ideas obvious — turning two-minute explanations into five-second ones.

About

Two businesses. Two industries. One operator.

I’m Ethan Glines, founder of Blue Luna — a branding consultancy that takes founder-led businesses from invisible to obvious. I lead the strategy, write the copy, design the site, and deliver the build. One operator, end-to-end. Most recent client: SyTech, a records management firm whose two-minute pitch I compressed into a five-second headline they now lead with.

Before Blue Luna was a consultancy, it was Blue Luna Media — cinematic editing for seven-figure brands. Between then and now, I founded a second business in a completely different industry: Travel With Glines, an international travel agency I branded, sold, and delivered a 12-day Patagonia 🏔️ trip out of. I’m currently finishing a finance degree at BYU Hawaii. Same playbook every time: strategize, brand, deliver.

Blue Luna

Founder · Brand Strategy · Copy · Design · Build

Blue Luna is a branding consultancy that takes founder-led businesses from invisible to obvious. It started in 2021 as Blue Luna Media — cinematic remote editing for seven-figure brands — and has since grown into full end-to-end brand consulting.

  • Recently delivered SyTech’s homepage — a multi-page brand site that compressed a two-minute pitch into a five-second headline the client now leads with.
  • Built Blue Luna Media’s editing practice into a trusted partner for seven-figure brands, delivering end-to-end “Ideation to Completion” videos.
  • Today the practice delivers strategy, copy, design, and code under one operator — no handoffs, no telephone game between teams.

Patagonia trip with Travel With Glines — 12 days in Southern Chile

Patagonia 🏔️ — 12 days, 9 travelers, one trip we’ll never forget.

Travel With Glines

Founder · Travel Agent · Tour Guide

Travel With Glines was an international travel agency I founded, built around unique travel experiences for young adults. Different industry, same operator muscle: brand the offer, sell the seats, deliver the trip on the ground.

  • Branded, sold, and delivered a 12-day Patagonia experience for nine travelers in Southern Chile — full itinerary, national parks, sightseeing, and on-the-ground logistics.
  • Owned the full sales funnel: pitched the trip, collected deposits, managed final payments, and verified passports and state-issued IDs for international passage.
  • Delivered as guide and operator in real-time, in another hemisphere — the brand promise actually landed, on the ground, on schedule.
