Communicate your value to customers more effectively and consistently--from all levels of your organization.
certified virtual presenter

Jim Karrh, Ph.D. guides business professionals, teams, and entire organizations to stand out through better messaging — which in turn produces better customer relationships, stronger brands, and more growth opportunities.

Jim offers audiences fresh perspectives and proven practices, drawn from his experience serving clients on three continents. He has consulted for small businesses, high-growth tech firms, members of the Fortune 500, and North America's largest martial-arts organization. (Just don't ask him to break boards with his hands; the hands would likely break first!) 

As a corporate marketing leader, Jim helped a 133-year-old niche brand to grow again--building a program judged best in the global bottled water industry among members of the International Bottled Water Association. He knows you don't have to be the biggest in order to be world-class.

A teacher at heart, Jim has served on the faculty of three universities. As a consultant and coach he has helped train more than 10,000 working professionals. He is a regular contributor to the American Marketing Association Executive Circle blog and several business media outlets. 

Jim is a popular speaker at events including The CMO Summit, Packaging That Sells, UB Tech, the Professional Convention Management Association, the Jim Beam Global Economic Summit, and Euronet USA's annual customer conference.

Jim also knows you don't have to be a Ph.D., an extrovert, or a brilliant conversationalist to bring your stories to life. It just involves a process he calls "Managing the Message."
