Kim Burdett: Marketing & Growth Leader

Strategy → Story → Revenue

Hi, I’m Kim.

I turn strategy into story—and story into revenue. I help mission-driven organizations find the plot twist: the insight, idea, or shift that transforms marketing from activity into measurable, lasting growth.


About

15+ years leading enterprise marketing strategy for mission-driven organizations — nonprofits, healthcare, and education. I build lean, revenue-driving growth engines, lead award-winning brand transformations, and believe the best strategy, like the best story, always has an unexpected turn.
