We had the pleasure of working with Kate DiLeo as a branding consultant for ETR over the last several months. Kate brought outstanding expertise and focus to our project, skillfully uniting a passionate team at ETR with a rich history of serving diverse end markets to create a cohesive and unified brand message. Her guidance and expertise kept us on track, and her strategic approach was instrumental in achieving our goals. We are incredibly grateful for her contributions and can’t recommend Kate highly enough to any company trying to build and/or solve its brand challenges!

I had hesitated a bit to hire Kate because we’ve had such mediocre results in the past with marketing-related services, and I also wondered if my team would yawn (or revolt) at working with another consultant. Boy, was I wrong! Not only was my team super excited and engaged on this project, but Kate actually gave us a real plan with right-on messaging and an actual structure to use it. She is not afraid to call BS on things that don’t work and she is the definition of above and beyond. I’d use her expertise again in a heartbeat.

Best decision EVER to hire Kate as a branding expert and consultant for our business. Not only did Kate have the deep experience we needed, but she knew how to walk us through a meaningful process that really produced results we can use. Our branding needed a serious brush-up, polish, and shine, which it got beyond what we imagined. Kate’s style of communicating and working her magic was perfect for our team, made up of a large mix of opinions, demographics, and experiences. She brought it all together beautifully. As a marketing expert myself that has branded and rebranded many companies, I would not have done this without Kate at our side. I can highly recommend her work to any entity that needs these services. Thank you Kate!!

HIGHLY recommend Kate as a brand strategist! Within a few weeks, she helped us completely clarify our brand message. She met us where we were and gave us actionable steps to move our business forward. We were spinning our wheels before Kate; now we have the knowledge and the roadmap to implement our core message, launch a new platform, and speak to our target market in a way that resonates with them.

I had the pleasure of working with Kate on a rebrand as 34 Strong niched into working in the government space. Her ability to understand our business and guide my team through the Brand Trifecta messaging process to end up with a clear and concise brand message saved us time and money. The outcome has enabled us to successfully train our internal and external teams on our new brand messaging and get the team on the same page with regards to speaking as a unified organization. In addition, Kate’s vast network of recommended businesses helped us pick out a website developer that is enabling us to take our Brand Trifecta messaging seamlessly into the digital space. Thank you Kate for all that you do!

In the spirit of KISS (Keep It Short and Simple) … and you thought it was different :). In over my 20+ years of being a serial entrepreneur, and working with many types of agencies, I have to say from the point of meeting Kate for the first time to working with her – the entire experience was fantastic. I appreciated many things – the positive attitude, the ability to be real in every encounter, the succinct manner of each meeting, her knowledgebase, the ability to bring out the critical elements that matter, and then wrapping it all up in a nice package that can be continuously utilized.

I’d highly recommend Kate – you’ll regret it if you don’t.

I never thought I’d engage an external brand / messaging expert to help shape our brand story. After all, marketing is what we do, and storytelling is a personal passion for me. However, as the CEO and Founder of a fast-growing firm, I found myself facing the same messaging myopia that our clients experience. I was just too close to the story, and it was becoming too complex. Enter Kate, with her magical ability to make complicated stuff simple. Through a series of interactive (and fun!) workshops, Kate unlocked the most powerful and unique pieces of our brand story. She equipped us with a framework to train our team, and share a clear and consistent message across all of our channels and in every interaction. We could not be more pleased, and are delighted to recommend Kate as an Ally Network provider to our clients, as well!
