Hi! I’m Julie Hordyk, Marketing Professional.
I started my professional career in the corporate world.
In fact, I spent 16 valuable years learning to support sales through marketing communication, both in billion-dollar companies and in a few smaller, privately owned businesses. I also reinforced my knowledge of business strategy, consulting, public speaking, teamwork, distribution development, and a host of other skills.
Then I jumped out on my own.
In 2004, I migrated from the corporate world to the joyful sphere of independent business owner. I adore working with for-profit clients of all types in the quest to make what they do more compelling. I’ve also discovered a deep and abiding passion for the non-profit sector. There is something about doing good that really fuels my drive to excel!
My approach is simple.
I’ll work directly with you to understand your goals and then put together a great plan that aligns with your resources. I love to think strategically. I thrive on engaging groups of all sizes, in all manners of work. A blank screen is a canvas for me, just waiting for words to bring an idea to life. I understand the big picture, and can help you integrate effective communication into all facets of your organization. Thinking, assessing, planning, writing, facilitating, motivating, challenging…these are the skills I bring to the table.
Most of my clients love the idea of having one relationship they can count on…not a host of vendors to micromanage. So I’ll collaborate with designers, videographers, printers, web programmers and anyone else we need on the team to get the job done. I’ll work with my preferred partners or yours, whatever fits. I am committed to timely, on-budget work, and hold the team accountable for the expectations that have been set.
What You Can Expect
Intensely Personalized
I don’t have cookie cutter solutions…they’re for bakers, not marketers! Whatever we do together will be created specifically to meet your goals.
Forthright
I will give you my honest feedback and best thinking every time. I will explain “why” with every recommendation so that we can make well-informed decisions together.
Value-Oriented
I will suggest options that fit within your resource constraints. I am efficient and focused, with a goal of getting it right the first time.
Powerful
Good communication should be succinct, compelling, informative and action-oriented. It should compel people to respond. I want you to see results.
