Testimonials: Discover the Impact of KBedford Consulting Services

Katie has advised our marketing agency for a couple of years in many areas, including staff retention, client success, team culture and long-term business strategy. She is a stellar business strategist, coach, mentor and agency leader. During her tenure as an advisor to our agency, we doubled our revenue (thanks, in part, to Katie’s guidance). We’ll continue to turn to Katie to help us hone our business strategy and coach us through sticky situations.
— Dale Bertrand - President, Fire & Spark

Having Katie work with Redstamp on a fractional basis was years in the making, but it was well worth the wait! She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience into everything that she puts her hands on and is incredibly passionate about Digital Project Management and Agency Operations. This made her a great fit with the team and she really connected and resonated with our group, instantaneously levelling us up and providing us with a seasoned sounding board when we ran into challenges. She has seen it all and that experience shines through brightly.

Katie is someone who is able to confidently and directly articulate what needs to happen for someone or something to be successful, which for me is a breath of fresh air. The amount of time she helped our business save while she optimized various processes was a common occurrence.

Beyond her wisdom, Katie is simply an amazing human being and someone you definitely would want to have on your side. If you are looking for an all-star to come off the bench, consider adding Katie to your roster. She is truly remarkable.
— Danny Norton - Director of Operations, Redstamp

I can’t recommend Katie enough. She supported us a few years ago with Project Management cover and based on that experience it was a no-brainer for us to reach out to her when looking for operations support. She’s helped us level up our internal processes and established regular cadences which have become foundational to our workflow. She’s also been a great support for our project managers, stepping in to provide guidance as we were hiring new team members.
— Andreanna Mazereeuw - Managing Director, Wallop Inc.

Scriptorium reached out to Katie to help us improve critical project management processes. Her keen understanding of process and template development played an important role as Scriptorium grew and hardened processes. I highly recommend Katie Bedford for growing organizations that need to take a fresh look at established processes. Katie offered valuable insights to help us build out new processes and templates that were compatible with our organization’s culture and have served us well as we grow.
— Sarah O'Keefe - CEO, Scriptorium

As a co-founder of a scaling digital agency Katie has been my secret weapon. She truly is a Digital PM/Agency Guru. You likely won’t meet many folks who can offer such a valuable opinion or insight on just about anything you can ask. She has the ability to break down huge problems and then start to solve those projects in priority. She is extremely fair, but she’s also not afraid to hold people accountable. I would highly recommend her to any team that is looking for a plug and play awesome human and expert level problem solver.
— Kelso Kennedy - Founder & CEO, Red Stamp Agency

Katie was a joy to have on my PM team at lululemon. She came in a critical time, and jumped from project to project with a great attitude and some of the best organizational skills I’ve seen! I was impressed by Katie’s ability to navigate the organization and stakeholders, while improving process and building a great rapport with teams very quickly - I swear she’s good at EVERYTHING. I’d gladly have her back in a heartbeat.
— Natalie Chomin - Manager, Brand Project Management at lululemon

I used to resist “process.” I viewed it as a blocker to simply getting things *done*. No more after working with Katie. She taught me that process and great project management is absolutely essential if you want to get a project done—and get it done right. She’s diplomatic, always on-the-ball, and keeps everyone on track and on the same page. I worked with Katie on a major web redesign/rebuild project and it’s been a highlight of my Hootsuite career—thanks in large part to her contributions and talent. I can’t recommend Katie highly enough.
— Michael Aynsley - Inbound Marketing Manager at Hootsuite

Katie stepped into a large complicated product build and quickly took command of the unknowns. She is a naturally gifted project manager who put the team and client at ease almost immediately upon starting. She brings value to any exchange she’s involved in, is a delight to work with and will be hired back for another contract at POWERSHiFTER as soon as the project stars are aligned once again
— Ted Morgan - Director of Digital Delivery at POWERSHiFTER

I had the pleasure of bringing Katie onto our team at Intergalactic in 2017/18 on 6 month contract as a Senior Project Manager. Katie is one of those great PMs that can manage projects in a full 360˚: managing client, delivery and leadership teams to ensure smooth and efficient delivery of a project. Key are Katie’s strong organization and communication skills. Katie knows when to be flexible, but will not fold and appropriately uses her wit and resolve to objectively communicate all aspects of a project. This makes her a natural nucleus for her team and a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend Katie as a Project Manager.
