Testimonials

Kind words from great clients & colleagues.

I had the pleasure of working with Marc. He is an exceptional leader with strong interpersonal skills, a unique capacity for empathy, and a high sense of integrity. His gentle demeanor and “win-win” approach at business negotiations and partner development are only eclipsed by his keen strategic mind and strong work ethic. He is team and service oriented and always mindful of the bottom line. Marc was an asset to our organization and I highly recommend him to any employer seeking a strong leader.

Principal Consultant

Accendcio Consulting

Marc is one of the brightest minds I’ve ever worked with when it comes to branding, storytelling, and crafting a unique message. He understands how to clearly position and articulate a company’s values, beliefs, and core strengths, and tell it in a way that a consumer will comprehend. In my experience, it’s difficult to find someone who is both equally gifted in brand strategy, and creative direction, and Marc is exactly that.

Excellent coach! Professional, insightful and experienced. Provides top leadership quality sessions that bring out the best in you. Working with Marc has given me and my organization direction and purpose which has put us at the next level for success.

Jamie Johnson, Executive Director

Marshall Foundation for Community Health

Marc has the unique ability of arriving at an organization and turning marketing chaos into revenue growth within a short amount of time. He quickly identifies short term opportunities to produce “quick wins” — while at the same time developing winning marketing strategies that are sustainable. The results of implementing his “marketing blueprint” are remarkable and I recommend him. Marc is a great leader and has been both a professional and personal mentor to me.

David Kolb, Director of Marketing

Cayuse, LLC

Over more than a decade, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Marc Fey in several professional capacities related to marketing, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Direct, proactive, creative, insightful and a natural leader who is a joy to be around, Marc brings integrity and vision to every project in which he’s involved.

Sean Harvey, Senior Writer

I had the pleasure of working with Marc both in my role at the The Institute for Digital Transformation and as a member of the board with itSMF USA. Marc was a great inspiration to me in terms of how marketing should really be done. He approached it authentically, creatively and with a commitment to do good, while promoting the brand effectively. And this approach produced significant results! I believe this stems from his character as a person. He is one of the nicest, most open, insightful and thoughtful people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and with which to work. I highly endorse Marc on every level.

Marc and the team at MKF Strategic Marketing are passionate about their clients and producing results. Few marketing agencies put as much attention to detail and care for the customer experience as Marc; our partnership with MKF Strategic Marketing has been so rewarding!

Marisa Williams, CEO and Founder

W74 Marketing

Several years ago I went through the StoryBrand workshop. It was revolutionary in my approach to promotional material and for our website. But, I found it very difficult in writing my own copy. Marc Fey enabled me to finally articulate the answers to the 7 essential categories of story in order to upgrade our website.

Gary Barkalow, Founder

The Noble Heart

Forbes’ “Top 10 Qualities that Make a Great Leader” include the following: honesty, ability to delegate, communication, sense of humor, confidence, commitment, positive attitude, creativity, intuition, and ability to inspire. Without exception, Marc excels at all of these qualities. Finding the balance between fun and productivity can be elusive for many leaders, but not to him. Thus, his energized, affirmed, empowered team will go the extra mile to achieve objectives — and the results speak for themselves.

Stephanie Santos, Content Manager

Clarity is what I was looking for with my Mortgage in Davis brand and “Clarity” is what I got with the helping hand of Marc Fey.

Stop wasting your $$$ on silly marketing and call Marc to help you put a plan in place to let the real fun begin. Enjoy the journey!
