Katie Mayes is a seasoned marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience in communications and brand leadership. She founded Mayes MarCom to bring clarity and high-impact execution to businesses that work behind the scenes, supporting other businesses, people, and entire industries.
With a deep background in food safety, training, compliance, and professional services, Katie understands the unique marketing challenges these sectors face. She launched Mayes MarCom after seeing too many B2B and B2P companies underserved by agencies focused on flashy trends instead of long-term strategy and substance.
Katie leads a small, senior team that helps clients clarify their value, build trust through content and messaging, and show up consistently in the right channels. Whether her clients are selling expertise, training, or essential systems and services, her approach is always the same: thoughtful, effective marketing without the bloat.
When she’s not leading client strategy or hosting podcast episodes, Katie is likely teaching, writing, or building community, often with a cup of coffee and a notebook nearby.
