Hi I’m Kelly McCormick,

This is the brief version of my story. If you have trouble sleeping, there’s a link at the bottom that goes to the expanded version.

By the way, I wrote the following bio in the third person to sound official. Enjoy!

What Does Kelly McCormick Actually Do? 

In a nutshell, Kelly develops business growth and marketing solutions that take entrepreneurs, small to mid-sized businesses and organizations to the next level. Her solutions clarify everything from your business growth strategies, to your brand identity, including what makes your business unique, to your marketing message and plans.

Kelly adds, “Running a business can be stressful, especially in a market that’s in a state of constant change. I’m on a mission to reduce the overwhelm by providing entrepreneurs and companies with practical, yet powerful solutions to grow their business. Having owned three successful businesses since I was 21 years old, I know what it’s like to build a business from the ground up and keep it thriving. Sharing solid ideas is extremely gratifying. I love seeing the relief that the solutions give clients as their businesses take off.”

How Does She Do It? 

Kelly has been described as “having a passion to get to the heart of the issues and clear a path to the destination.”

Her clients say that Kelly has an uncanny ability to decipher what is needed, and what will work, to brand, market and grow their business.

Is She Even Qualified? 

Kelly combines years of experience, plus an education in sociology and psychology, to catapult businesses and organizations to the next level.

She Walks Her Talk

Kelly doesn’t just talk the talk. She’s walked the walk. As mentioned, Kelly has owned three successful businesses—the first at age 21.

However, it wasn’t always smooth sailing. As a woman in business, back in the early days, Kelly had to navigate her way through many uncharted waters. Yet she was still able to simultaneously run her companies and educate herself on how to advance them. The perfect example of the multitasking woman!

Adding to those tricky situations, Kelly started her businesses during economically challenging times. Her personal motto – “I’ll figure this out”– kept Kelly buoyant. It is also transported throughout her work.

How She Built Her Business Skills

There were other opportunities to build her business know-how.

For many years Kelly taught business development, sales, and marketing in business programs and at colleges. In addition, Kelly has coached hundreds of entrepreneurs and consultants to brand, develop and market their companies.

That led to being contracted to create entrepreneurial training programs. Then teaching other coaches to lead the workshops and do one-on-one business coaching and consulting.

Her expertise was further strengthened when Kelly became President of the largest chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers (CAPS Toronto). Leading with her business skills, Kelly and her board saw substantial growth in marketing, operations, finances, events, and membership.

Kelly is also a past member of the National Speakers Association (NSA), the International Speakers Federation and the Association for Personality Type.
