Kathy Hogeveen’s Summary

I was born for this time in history! People + Technology = Social Marketing Training!

I was trained in Computer Programming and Systems Analysis in College. My career has led me from IS Management through consulting Small Businesses and providing training and support of software throughout the 25+ years of being in this industry.

In 1999 I started an online business and have thoroughly enjoyed the personal & professional development aspect of building and training teams off line for a web based ecommerce solution. This arena has allowed me to speak at conferences.

My strengths involve developing and maintaining key relationships, training and public speaking. I've invested over 6,000 hours in personal & professional development and subscribe to ongoing training programs. I've spoken at training events throughout North America.

My goal is to be a life-long learner and in turn teach others that their success is dependent upon constantly re-inventing themselves. Community building whether offline or online is my passion as it allows me to mentor those who strive for excellence. Social Marketing really culminated my passions and I'm eager to train others.
