‘Inner Peace Marketing’ text in teal cursive – ethical, trauma-aware marketing for creatives.

No BS marketing support for creative small biz owners who want real results, real strategy, and real support from a real marketer.

You don’t need another “Instagram business coach.” You need a marketer, award-winning agency leader, and small business owner who’s sold a quarter of a million dollars of art class sales online, with integrity, in just ~2 years.

Let me guess…

You’re a creative, a maker, a small biz dreamer who wants to:

  • Set up your first website without crying into your coffee

  • Start building a real email list (not just post-and-pray on Instagram)

  • Make actual sales with a strategy that feels good

  • Stop duct-taping your business together with 500 YouTube tutorials

But every time you look for help, you find:

❌ Coaches who promise you’ll “make 6 figures in 6 weeks”
❌ Instagram “marketers” who have only made money selling the promise of making money to others (hi MLM)
❌ Overpriced courses full of fluff and recycled Instagram quotes
❌ Tech tutorials that assume you already know what a “funnel” is (I built my biz without many “funnels”)

You need someone who’s actually been there. Someone who’s built, scaled, and taught marketing in the real world and can translate that into simple, ethical, actionable strategies for YOU.

That’s where Katie and Inner Peace Marketing comes in.

Hi, I’m Katie: marketer, professor, and creative biz builder.

I’m not a “business coach.” I’m a marketer with 20 years of real-life marketing experience.

I’ve led hundreds of digital marketing campaigns as a senior creative account manager for brands you know and love with 95% customer satisfaction. Think deep dish pizza, animal crackers, one of the biggest accounting firms, and a massive online interior decor store.

✅ I’ve built a marketing agency department to millions in annual revenue winning awards like Best Place to Work in PA.

✅ I’ve led 60+ marketers as a marketing director with a 95% employee net promoter score & employee retention

✅ I teach marketing and communications to undergrad and grad students.

✅ I’ve replaced my own six-figure marketing exec salary in just 2 years with my art biz, just by selling art classes and programs, all from ethical strategy and authentic leadership, not silly gimmicks.

And now? I help small creative biz owners like you build businesses that actually work without sacrificing your sanity, ethics, or soul.

This is marketing for people who want real advice, not just networking hype.
