Who am I?

MaryPat Kavanagh, chief marketing strategist, has extensive experience in marketing and small business since 1989. She has owned retail businesses, restaurants and consulting practices and has been extremely involved in her community through local Chamber of Commerces, National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO), Shared Vision Network, Jaycees, and other networking and professional development organizations.

In 1999, she opened Strategic Results Marketing LLC in Arizona. Strategic Results Marketing was an expert marketing firm specializing in entrepreneurial strategizing and planning. She has since developed the “Entrepreneur’s Bottom-Line Marketing Plan”, simplifying marketing for entrepreneurs.

Strategic Results Marketing has been down-sized. In 2002, MaryPat realized that she was not authentic with her business and her life. She realized in conversation one day that, although she was the single mom of 3 girls, although she was a prominant business owner in the community, although she was involved in local organizations including the Chamber of Commerce, most people who knew her did NOT know that she was a single mom.

This bothered her. When she moved to Utah, she decided she would change some things. She downsized her business–only working with online entrepreneurs who leveraged speaking as a marketing strategy. She only worked virtually–no more busy meetings every day that required traveling all over.

And now she only works with people who understand and accept that she is a mom first, passionate business owner & strategist second.

Today, MaryPat develops success-driven marketing plans and offers mentoring programs that empower you to achieve the results you need to accomplish the goals, the mission and the vision you know is possible!

The Queen of Connections, The Woman Under the Crown

So you’re looking at a typical, Type A personality, who did everything early. MaryPat started her first business as a wholesaling used furniture queen in Tucson Arizona . She bought her first “brick and mortar” business in 1990—a furniture new and used store (we are moving on up!).

She married and jumped right into a family, having her first daughter in 1991. Getting bored (as many entrepreneurs do), she moved up to the mountains of Arizona to Prescott and bought a little café. This was hard work, marriage didn’t work out, so HE got the furniture store and she got the café.

Loved living on coffee and ice cream, but got bored again and took a job at a radio station. (Notice she doesn’t seem to get rid of the businesses, she just takes new ones).

Not surprisingly, that didn’t last too long. MaryPat went back into business for herself as the President and Chief Strategist of Strategic Results Marketing. You can read more about that up top.

But to fast forward to today, MaryPat is now in Utah where the most gorgeous mountains in the country also reside. She loves the snow and the sun, and Utah have LOTS of both. It is also the only place outside a 3rd World country that you can say, “I ONLY have 4 kids!” And she does–four beautiful girls, a golden retriever and of course, a great husband who puts up with all the girls!

As for business? This is what she says: “I have also realized that what I do best is help my clients create GREAT RELATIONSHIPS! So that is what I do. I specialize in creating strategic partnerships, joint ventures, and long-lasting, profitable relationships.”
