Marketing communications for Minnesota nonprofits and mission-driven small businesses

I’m your virtual marketing department — a seasoned extension of your team. I develop clear messaging, donor and client communications, and practical content that tells your story and drives action. And I stay close enough to help you actually execute, so your marketing doesn’t stall after the strategy is set.

I’m based in Minnesota and work with organizations statewide and nationwide.

Marketing communications that sound like you — and help people take action

Clear marketing communications make it easier for people to understand what you do, trust your work, and say yes — whether that means donating, volunteering, signing up, or buying. Together, we’ll clarify your key messages, strengthen your voice, and build content you can use across your real-world communications.

You need Kristin’s expertise.

  • Wearing Too Many Hats?

    Let me lighten your load if you're overwhelmed by your endless roles, including marketer. I'll take the marketing hat off your hands, infusing your organization with fresh, innovative ideas that breathe new life into your strategy.

  • Overflowing To-Do List?

    I'm here to ease the burden. Marketing shouldn't be another stressor in your day. Let me bring fresh ideas and a new perspective to reinvigorate your organization's efforts.

  • Lack of Marketing Expertise In-House?

    No problem. Trust in a professional with years of experience rather than leaving your brand's voice in the hands of someone still learning the ropes.

  • Struggling to Keep Up with Marketing Changes?

    The marketing world is constantly changing, and it's my job to stay on top of these shifts. I'll guide you through the latest trends and ideas, making sure your organization doesn't just keep up but stands out.

  • Worried About Costs?

    Understandably, the budget is a big deal for any business. My services are designed to be affordable for small teams — giving you expert support without the cost of hiring a full-time employee.

Because every project is different, I offer flexible pricing — project-based quotes or hourly support — based on your needs.

Whether you want a project-based quote or prefer an hourly rate, I will tailor my fees to your needs. Let's create something amazing together!

  • “I am so grateful that I found Kristin. She was able to help scale my nonprofit Creative Healing Space to a whole new level! She understood our core values and visions. Through our short time with her, she created a new website that is easy to navigate and informative but also stays true to our brand. She helped us create many super useful marketing tools and effective strategies to help us continue to strive forward. Kristin is someone that I like working with because she makes me and my team feel heard and valued. As artists, sometimes we don't feel like the business world acknowledges or respects our ideas. So, I appreciate her expertise, efforts, and grace in working with us. I recommend that any nonprofits and entrepreneurs connect with her because no matter what service options you may need, she always brings invaluable perspectives and talents from which we can all benefit. I will want to work with her again in the future!”

    Suree Sompamitwong, Founder and Co-Director of Creative Healing Space, Worthington, MN

  • “Kristin was a delight to work with last quarter. She worked with us to update and refine our online presence to reflect our organization and mission more accurately. Kristin matched the vibrancy of our work and reflected it beautifully in her work. She is diligent, creative, and meticulous, and we had a wonderful collaboration that will continue as we continue and start projects. We have already sent referrals her way! If you're thinking about working with her, do it. Our organization benefited greatly from our time together. Kristin, thank you for your vast knowledge, caring, passion, and time.”

    Amanda Jacobson, Director of Programming, Good Neighbor Center, St. Paul, MN
