Today, it takes a lot more than a vision to launch a startup or build a competitive, sustainable, high performing business. While having a good idea goes a long way, translating that vision into a compelling value proposition, relatable brand identity and

effective marketing strategy—is an entirely different storyEven if you achieve these goals, there’s still the challenge of communicating it in a visually attractive way that resonates with consumers. Having someone with these skills is invaluable. And that’s what I do best.

HYBRID SKILLSETS

02. Areas Of Expertise

Marketing & Copywriting

Marketing & Copywriting

I've studied everything from Dale Carnegie to Oren Klaff, and many others in-between. I've created marketing and advertising content for single product companies and highly complex industries. The differences can be significant but the key elements never change: great storytelling, stunning design, (that aids in telling the story) and a willingness to respond to feedback and analytics.

Creative & Design

Creative & Design

Whether it was winning awards for art in school or leading design projects throughout my career, I've always enjoyed exploring my creativity and experimenting with new ideas. I appreciate the collaborative process and the uniqueness of each journey. My desire to express myself creatively and passion for intelligent design keeps me searching for ways to learn, grow and improve my craft.

Brand Purpose Consulting

Brand Purpose Consulting

The idea of connecting to purpose speaks to me on a deeper level. It's extremely gratifying to help a company discover the ``why`` behind their existence (other than profits). It's a big impact task that is often the difference between success and failure. But the best part is watching the process transform the brand, its employees, their customers, and sometimes society itself.

CONTEXT IS RELEVANCE

03. Creative Approach

Immersion

Learn about the client, their products and services, their needs, the problems they’re trying to solve and what they hope to achieve.

Research

Get to know the audience, user and customer. Learn what they do, think, say and feel about the company, the product, and the competition.

Collaborate

Review research findings with the client, collaborate to build on one another’s ideas, and establish the vision. Then set goals, parameters and a course of action to bring the project to life.

Iterate

The first design is created, then it’s reviewed and refined through a series of iterations until there’s nothing left to add or remove.

Optimize

The true test of any design or brand creative is how the audience/user/potential client responds. This part of the creative process utilizes A/B testing and data analytics to evaluate, compare and adjust to maximize performance and optimize conversions.

04. Have a Project?

    My Client's Say...

    I have had the good fortune of working with Kurt on several projects at different companies over the last several years. He is multi-talented/multi-faceted and I have worked with him at the highest strategic levels on new projects/products or in the reimagining of an existing business. Kurt is good at seeing the big picture, contributing to it, and then executing the strategy to bring the project to life.

    CEO, Elevator Studio

    I have developed various types of sites with Kurt and have been extremely pleased with every single one of them - generally on the first iteration! Why work with 5 different teams to develop a site when you can call one guy? I highly recommend Kurt for any creative, design or marketing project you might have.
