Her Story & Vision
With 20+ years in diverse marketing and advertising roles across agencies, start-ups, and large ASX-listed organisations, Kristy has helped notable brands grow and get on the global map. After navigating major agency shifts (and experiencing multiple redundancies), Kristy wanted to take more control of her life & career… and build a sustainable business that supported success for herself, her family, and the community around her.
Over 6 years ago, she founded Hunter Marketing Co. to go deeper with clients — providing personalised direction, curated plans, and unique approaches. Since then, Kristy has helped countless clients and embraced her passion for supporting women in business — including business owners and even other marketers — continuing to “pay it forward” by helping them develop the skills and strategies to reach their own career and business goals.
Kristy knows the value of being open-minded as a marketer and encourages (and empowers) clients to expand their horizons. She also knows that being “open” means being adaptable — from following market trends and shifts, to helping clients step outside their comfort zones as new technology (e.g. AI) emerges. Kristy stays on top of evolving strategies and technology and also maintains a grounded, big-picture view of how it affects her clients and their businesses, embodying the concept of strategically embracing change, not running from it.
Thought Leader + Community Advocate
Kristy has collaborated with successful industry leaders on countless panels, podcasts, and webinars, all in the name of sharing marketing knowledge and innovation. She is an active mentor, sponsor, and speaker, dedicated to surrounding herself with other leaders across women-centric and visionary organisations. Kristy believes in collaboration over competition, and that when we push each other to be the best we can be, everyone wins.
