Storytelling4 is an innovative, creative approach to planning, writing and communicating your business strategy.
Storytelling is one of the best ways to connect emotionally with all of the people who will create, support and grow your business.
After 15 years immersed in the fast-paced world of technology and start-ups, Kim is hooked on entrepreneurship and chaos.
Her diverse background includes product management, marketing, business development and consulting for software, hardware, telecom and Internet companies. She has also traveled extensively and spent three years teaching English in Japan.
Kim has a sociology degree and earned her Master of Business Administration — but she’s a firm believer that you don’t need a business degree to start and grow a successful company.
Kim and I worked together at Cell-Loc. Kim is a born strategist which is complimented nicely by hands-on expertise across numerous product managment and marketing domains. Her understanding of product positioning and product life cycle management is one of her key strengths. I would gladly work with Kim again if the opportunity arose.
Kim is fantastic to work with. A tremendous work ethic and an even better attitude!
Like many entrepreneurs it is hard to think someone outside can deliver enough value to compete for our time or budget. That desire to do things ourselves and our way defines us as entrepreneurs. However, from the moment I met Kim, I found myself wanting to spend more time with this insightful and creative person to help us learn more about ourselves and how to better connect to our customers. Storytelling4 Entrepreneurs was a simply refreshing way to step back and look at our business from the foundation. Kim’s contribution to our company has certainly accelerated our growth path and sharpened our focus.
I did not think there was much Kim could do for a home inspection business. Boy was I was wrong. Kim helped me to think differently about marketing my business. She guided me through process of preparing for spontaneity. In the process of planning out my business goals she helped to identify new areas of opportunity. These new opportunities help sustain Avid as we secured our footing. We are moving forward and growing because of her creative spark. I would highly recommend working with Kim do discover your own version of Out-Of-The-Box thinking.

It is my pleasure to endorse Kim. Her work ethic and quality of deliverables were high during her time at TELUS.
As a peer of Kim's, she was always very quick to assist in brainstorming and improving creative concepts. Her background and skills give her the ability to look at opportunities from many different perspectives.
I met Kim when she hired ME as a wardrobe consultant. After five minutes of talking with her, I knew I wanted to hire HER to consult with her about my small business. Her passion for the subject of entrepreneurship is infectious. Working with Kim really opened my eyes to the untapped opportunities that were available to me so that I could take my business to the next level. Aside from the wealth of knowledge she possess, she is simply a joy to work with. Her positive demeanor is infectious - but she's not sugar-sweet. She is a straight-shooter. She's honest and reliable. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone looking to jump-start their business.
Kim assisted me in determining a career path in the business world for myself after I graduated college with no interest in following my major and no idea what to look for workwise. By taking my skills, interests, and personality type into account, Kim was able to delve into her knowledge of how businesses work to determine what areas I might be interested in. Her expertise in the business arena was extremely thorough and helpful in guiding me in the right direction, and after changing my application strategy I was able to find a job that suited me perfectly! I would definitely recommend her to anyone -- her knowledge into the structures of businesses and ability to point people or businesses in the right direction based on that is unparalleled. Thank you Kim!
Kim is a natural strategist. I asked her to generate a plan for how to attack a particular market in Canada. She developed a well-researched and executable strategy that we use today.
Kim's work in marketing, strategy, and communications is outstanding. Her customer-centric approach leads to high-quality results. Her interpersonal skills allow her to interact well with customers, staff, and suppliers. She is a fabulous team player, and a great contributor to the betterment of whatever organization she represents.
As a Product Manager for wireless data services at TELUS Mobility, I worked closely with Kim. Her good sense of the strategic goals, and a detailed oriented approach to the tactical deliverables, meant that Kim's participation to the tasks that we worked on, ensured success.
