NOTE FROM KEN
I've been involved in public relations and marketing since before I was 20 years old. Ken Collins Marketing is my latest independent marketing agency in operation since 2015. While helping business owners with their marketing needs, I noticed that most of my conversations revolved around other business concerns (not just marketing). In 2024, I founded Strategic Horizons Consulting (and redirected most of my efforts here) to help business owners with all of the non-marketing challenges they face. While the agency is new (and will eventually become independent), the experience I bring to this is very diverse, packed with success stories, and spans decades and continents. Whatever you need - I can help.
