Expanding a Donor Base Through Brand Revitalization

Kem and her team handed me the tools I needed to align many groups of stakeholders with a goal everyone could embrace.

By clarifying our story and entrusting it to our people, we gained the collective muscle to break through old systems.

Now we’re making a larger, lasting impact. Together, we’ve zeroed in on how to hit a wide range of people in the heart — and inspire belief in the power of music to do something greater.

Unifying Communications Strategy in a Wild West Organization

As a senior stakeholder navigating complex dynamics in my organization, I needed a team to cut through the noise and clarify my focus. Working with Kem and her team has been a game-changer. They’ve helped me simplify our teams’ most pressing problems and craft key culture initiatives across subsidiary presidents, internal systems, human resources, etc. Thanks to their support, I’m no longer hitting dead-ends. I see alignment opportunities instead of insurmountable obstacles.

The results speak for themselves – my team is more empowered, and my executive leadership sees the interdependent impact of our work. Kem and her team are indispensable partners who I’m grateful to have on my side. I can confidently attest that Kem and the team stand out in a league of their own.

Boosting Online Engagement for New and Existing Audiences

“She guided us to rethink our brand, strategy, structure, and impact. It was transformative in our efforts to reach people.”

John Erwin

Executive Pastor

Boosting Online Engagement for New and Existing Audiences

Kem was highly recommended to help us develop a digital strategy but once we began, she was able to help us see that our communication philosophy was flawed. She guided us to rethink our brand, strategy, structure, and impact. It was transformative in our efforts to reach people.

Kem is very insightful, brilliant, and just fun to work with.

Creating a Shared Brand Experience Across Church, Nonprofit, and Civic Partners

“Working with Kem & Co put wind in my sails and continues to expand our impact in the community.”

Katie McIlwain

Director of Cokesbury Connection Center

Creating a Shared Brand Experience Across Church, Nonprofit, and Civic Partners

As the director of a non-profit community outreach center, I am constantly pulled in a hundred different directions. From responding to critical needs and advocating for preventive and systemic change in our city, to building alliances with community partners and collaborating with church sponsors, the complex demands on our organization was outpacing our ability to support them with safety and quality. It was overwhelming. I was overwhelmed.

Kem & Co. had helped our senior leadership in the past, so I followed their lead and reached out. I’m so glad I did. Working with their team put wind in my sails. They brought me the tools and strategies I needed to focus our workload, expand our impact with partners, volunteers, donors, staff, and sponsors. With their support, we are growing our capacity to provide more relief, resources, and care to our neighbors who need it most.

From Doing More to Doing What Matters Most

“Our identity became a practical filter for decisions.”

Ryan Graham

Executive Pastor, Maple City Chapel

From Doing More to Doing What Matters Most

I expected the work with Kem & Co to be helpful, but I didn’t anticipate how much clarity would come from the way they excavated and articulated our buried identity. It brought alignment to our leadership at a time when we were stretched thin and navigating competing priorities across ministries.
That clarity became a practical filter for decisions. It helped us simplify our work, focus our team, and prioritize resources for highest impact. The tools and frameworks they gave us continue to guide how we plan and evaluate everything we do.

Renewing Vision at a Critical Moment of Transition

“Working with Kem & Co has been instrumental in clarifying a path forward. We are making it happen now with the right work, the right messaging, and the right systems.”

Mike Zdorow

Senior Pastor, The Gathering Place

Renewing Vision at a Critical Moment of Transition

After several years of navigating complex challenges in our church, those of us still here were struggling to define and unite around who we wanted to be moving forward. We had the vision but were stuck when we tried to figure out a path forward.

Working with Kem & Co gave us not only the guidance, but a practical plan forward to honor our past without living in it. The guidance of this team has been instrumental in clarifying and activating the right messaging, work, and systems to make it happen. We are reunited, reenergized and relaunched!

Taking the Crisis out of Crisis Communications

“Getting a plan and toolkit in place for crisis communications provided us with much-needed headspace and eliminated panic responses.”

Business Owner & Executive Advisor

Taking the Crisis out of Crisis Communications

Getting a plan and toolkit in place for crisis communications provided us with much-needed headspace and eliminated panic responses.

There’s always a crisis around the corner, but our response doesn’t have to be one.

From Activity-Driven to Identity-Driven

“We unlocked the church we really are.”

Jay Shelter

Lead Pastor, Psychologist, Maple City Chapel

From Activity-Driven to Identity-Driven

Kem & Val helped us reactivate our foundation buried under all the competing activity. They gave us confidence and clarity to stop chasing template promotions and embody communications that reflect who we really are.
That shift brought a sense of freedom to our leadership. Our staff stopped spinning and we’ve been able to let go of unnecessary work and evaluate our ministries through a clearer lens. The result has been a more authentic and focused approach to how we serve our people.
Looking back, this season of work will be one of those defining chapters in our church’s story.

Expanding the Strategic Capacity of an In-House Team

Director of Digital Engagement

Expanding the Strategic Capacity of an In-House Team

Sometimes you just need an outside perspective to shine a light on your blind spots.

Kem Meyer and Co. bring experience that exposes cumbersome language and outdated practices. Providence is more connected and better equipped to reach the people we are trying to serve.

Uncovering Hidden Obstacles to Restore Momentum

“She is surgical, practical, and creative, yet also unafraid to say the hard things that need to be said.”

Dave Harvey

President, Great Commission Collective

Uncovering Hidden Obstacles to Restore Momentum

Organizations breed complexity. That’s why I am thankful there are gifted people in this world like Kem. She is surgical, practical, and creative, yet also unafraid to say the hard things that need to be said. I’m glad we hired her. If you need to simplify the complex, you should hire her too.
