Customer Testimonials

Simply put, Kathryn is 100% pure joy to work with.

She condensed a difficult, unruly topic into a beautifully written, fact-filled paper that we are proud to put on the streets. Edits were quickly acted upon and she was pro from start to end.

And she did on time and… wait for it.. wait for it… under budget!

She rocks. We will definitely work with her again.

Greg Fine, Principal at Ding Communications, Inc.
I work with a lot of insurance professionals and I want to commend Kathryn on her knowledge, attentiveness, and attitude.

She is a pleasure to do business with and I would have no problem recommending her for anyone needing an experienced and professional insurance expert.

It’s not often that you come across a writer who truly knows the complexity of the insurance business.

As fully licensed property & casualty, life & health broker, Kathryn not only understands the products and services that my agency sells, but possesses the necessary skill set to write in-depth copy that could only come from having sold the exact products herself.

If you’re looking for a writer with a solid insurance background, she is definitely the person to partner with.

Kristine Quirk, Vice President – Union Bank

Kathryn Messer is an outstanding consultant to the financial services industry, particularly in crafting copy for an institution’s web site, or in developing marketing brochures for institution campaigns.

The value she brings to the project is her wide understanding of the industry, coupled with an ear for developing a message that communicates effectively to the member/customer.

Particularly valuable is the fact that Kathryn is highly versed on the various facets of regulation; and how each form of marketing-media needs to meet and exceed regulatory standards.

Finally, she communicates easily and directly. She inspires confidence and successfully follow’s through. She is a pleasure to work with!

In sum, I would recommend Kathryn for any project requiring the right balance between an institutional communicating a brand and message with in the bank, credit union or insurance industry, while remaining with in regulatory constraints for audit purposes.

As we note on our website, the Internet opens doors to new and unforeseen opportunities and it certainly did that for us when we found Kathryn Messer of KMC Communications.

Our search for an insurance industry technical copywriter took us to her door. Actually, it was her LinkedIn profile that drew us in because it promised exactly what we were looking for and more. Living up to a promise is a much more difficult course, yet Kathryn delivered – on time and in a highly professional manner.

Even though there are literally thousands of miles separating us, she quickly became a key member on our team and played a very critical role. In that she was at times the direct contact with members of the client team, we literally turned the keys over to her.
