Bio
Paul McCabe
I've known Kathie since 1992 when she hired my company do do the MARCOM work for her company (LNP Engineering Plastics). We remained close friends after the company was sold and when Kathie set up her own company we collaborated on several projects together and she remains a phenomenal source for ideas, strategies and critical thinking. She is the epitome of a first-class marketing & creative talent and I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is looking to improve their brand image in the marketplace. She's highly efficient and VERY economical as she is keenly aware of client budgets. Personable, knowledgeable, and a great asset to any company's team.

We have worked with Kathie for a number of manufacturing companies over the past 5 years. In every case she contributed valuable ideas to the overall marketing strategy, and then did an excellent job on producing the marketing communications tools needed to successfully implement the strategy. Kathie's work is consistently "a cut above" most of the firms in her industry. She is very professional, tunes in quickly to a client's business situation, and is a pleasure to work with. So we do not hesitate to introduce and recommend her to our clients.
