Forty Under 40 Recipient

40 under 40Today is a great day! Not many people can say that on Monday mornings sitting at their desk, but for me, it’s the start of what’s going to be a fabulous week!

The February issue of Connecticut Magazine comes out this week and I’m so honored and grateful to have been selected as one of the Forty Under 40 recipients for 2016.

One of the points that was mentioned in the article was that we are adjusting our client focus a bit to work with luxury and lifestyle brands, something that I’ve been passionate about for a while now. However, unfortunately over the last few years, I’ve gotten away from working directly with clients as much, but that’s about to change. This Forty Under 40 recognition has made me realize that I miss meeting with new clients to help them achieve their marketing and personal growth goals.

So the bottom line is that I want to network with new brands, new companies, new clients to see how we can help grow and promote them. Are you a business owner, a marketing VP, or a public relations director? Call, drop a line, or connect with me online – this winter is the start of a great year and I want you to be included!

It might sound cliché, but to me, this really is the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. I start getting excited for the holidays around the first week of November, and yes, I had my Christmas Pandora station playing by the middle of the month. There’s something just magical about these 6 weeks, when everyone is in a good mood and excited about what the end of the year will bring.

Here at Image Marketing, we’re especially thankful for a few big things this season. First and foremost, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve once again made the list of Top Advertising and Public Relations Agencies by the Hartford Business Journal. This will be our fourth consecutive year making the list, and we’re always grateful to our clients and colleagues who continue to support a small business. We’re constantly evolving and I hope to be able to share some exciting announcements over the coming months.

On a personal level, I’m thankful for the health of my baby boy, who as many of you remember, was still in the NICU at this time last year. Being a working mom certainly has its challenges, but I wouldn’t give it up for the world. I started this marketing agency at the age of 23 for exactly this reason, to be able to have flexibility in my schedule and be able to lead as much of a well-rounded life as possible. I tell our team all the time, it’s all about work/ life balance and I try to live by that rule every single day.

You’ll be seeing a lot more from me as 2015 comes to a close.. it’s one of my resolutions to be more active on our blog and get to interact with our fans and followers on a regular basis in the new year. Feel free to drop me a line anytime at kate@imagemarketingconsultants.com.

Until next time…
