Stacey Gillespie – Made. Clothing & Print

Thank you so much Katy for putting together my new website which I absolutely love, it is exactly what I wanted it to be. You were a pleasure to work with and even though I had a very clear vision of exactly what I wanted you achieved that for me and were very helpful and attentive to my many requests! Thank you. I would highly recommend Katy.

Andrew Schnitzerling – Curly’s Shot Photography

Katy has been helping with our marketing for a few months now and we are starting to see results already. I have quickly learnt that you can market just for the sake of marketing or you can market your business to achieve goals and Katy is aware of what needs to happen to reach these targets which is a big tick for me as it can be quite daunting adding any extra cost to your business but I have found Katy to be a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow and cannot wait for our expansion. Katy oozes ability, very very smart woman who is determined to see you thrive in your field. I'd have no hesitation recommending her to anyone. Thanks Katy!

Annemarie Willemen-Diephuis, Hunter & Nomad

Katy has been a big part of the rapid growth Hunter & Nomad (formerly Dutch Warehouse) has gone through over the last year. She has has helped us with the rebrand of our business which included building our beautiful website, create the new branding, logo and email marketing.

We had a real click from the moment we started working together and this helped tremendously getting the new concept and ideas on paper. She is very reliable, a hard worker and has so much knowledge of how to market a brand. I could not have done the rebrand and growth of my business without her!

Shannan Ballin – The Feel Good Physio

Katy has been amazing in helping me with my new business!! We have worked on all aspects from marketing and branding strategy, logos, social media (set up, planning and promos), photo shoot prep, website design and construction, flyers and most recently event planning. Katy's creativity and marketing know how is exemplary, she has always gone above and beyond for me. I have already recommended Katy to a few friends and I wont hesitate to continue to recommend her.

Jodie West – Mini Nation

Where to start! Katy has been a huge contributor to our business. Katy is extremely thorough and without a doubt a very talented communication and marketing professional. Katy has assisted us for a number of months with all aspects of our marketing and business strategy. After taking the time to understand our goals and target market, Katy has been able to provide much needed expertise and advice to us as well as clearly articulate what we often can’t and put it in to action. I honestly can’t recommend Katy highly enough, she is just amazing and I am so grateful to be able to work with her.

Naomi Farrell – Avani + Co.

As a Mum and an entrepreneur, I usually find myself far too busy with the demands of running my company to address the larger picture of expanding my business. Katy provides me with a professional service tailored specifically to my needs. Working with Katy has been a positive experience. Her understanding of marketing and selling a product is fantastic. She has ideas that I never would have thought of. Katy is professional, reliable and works very quickly. It’s not only a stress-reducer to work with her, it’s also a pleasure. I would recommend Katy without hesitation.
