What People are saying about Kim

Natalie Kansteiner - Oracle

“Two words come to mind when working with Kim: Strategic Value. I started working with Kim and her extended team Holiday 2016. We started with some initial small tests in audiences and measurement. Two years later, our relationship has blossomed into a multi-channel sophisticated ROI machine. Kim has been an ideal partner for driving leadership and forward-thinking in the social media and measurement space. We go into each year knowing that we have to test…to learn…to eventually find the perfect mix. Thus far her efforts have proven worthwhile, driving exceptionally strong results year over year.”

Jason Teitler – Burson Marsteller

“I admire Kim for so many reasons, especially her ability to lift a strategic approach to previously unimagined heights. Kim has a unique ability to fuse proven marketing and communications principles with innovative methods to achieve breakthrough public relations and social media success while steering a brand into unexplored, prosperous territory.”
