Bio
Lindsay Urquhart
Kat is fantastic. Her recent work as a consultant to our business was seamless and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her service to anyone looking for external marketing assistance. She’s particularly strong on the strategic side but equally happy being ‘hand on’. Whatever she is doing she is always an absolute pleasure to work with.

Kat managed my complete re-branding and 10 year anniversary marketing campaign - new logo, new website, content and social media and I couldn't be happier with the results. I have had amazing feedback from clients and candidates alike, so I know I made the right decision in going through the process and in using Kat. She was great to work with, because she listened to exactly what I wanted, advised me and introduced me to new marketing tools. I will be continuing to use her going forward. So if you are looking for a good marketing specialist who imparts great solid advice I can't recommend her highly enough.
