Mary Kathryn Johnson: What NOT to do to Create Your Next-Figure Brand Voice
Manage episode 403873134 series 3467403
Mary Kathryn (MK) Johnson is a Fractional CMO for SaaS startups, and help them launch, while acquiring a rev share and equity. Additionally, she helps freelancers and no-code builders create their own mini-SaaS products and companies through a monthly membership called ACE (Automated Conversational Entrepreneur).
MK's motto - "If not now, When?" - encapsulates the success philosophy for her business and those for whom she consults. On this episode of BRAND VOICE RUNWAY, MK and I explore her freedom mindset, "feeling like I'm 20 again with no responsibilities, and all the wisdom of life." It's armed her with a unique perspective as a "Success Optometrist" of sorts, with the goal of helping others be "20 again" in their business. "I want to help 4 SaaS companies a year as Fractional CMO, and 1,000 students a year as a mentor," she says.
MK's greatest success? In her view, it has been achieved through designing and creating a category, rather than a brand. And now she helps businesses create their own categories using conversational design, marketing, strategy and A.I.
