Kathy is always a ray of optimism and it's very easy to see why she does so well with business and mentoring others!
Beth A. Wixom, CPA
I had the opportunity to spend two days with Kathy when she invited me to participate in a job shadow experience at her company, Stowebridge Promotion Group. She has extensive experience with marketing, customer service, and the promotion industry. It is through that experience that she was able to share insights into owning a business, and the life of a career woman. In our short time together, I saw what a driven and inspiring individual Kathy is. I also saw what a kind, genuine, and intelligent person she is. I could not ask for a better role model.

We have an outstanding creative staff along with in house production including screen printing, embroidery, laser engraving, signage and banners.
