ABOUT KikiBlu Marketing

A girl & her dog & her team

KAB Marketing was originally founded in 2009 as a side project, as Kim Barb continued her marketing agency career. When Covid-19 struck in 2020, she had several clients that had to shutter their doors either temporarily or permanently. Those closures trickled their way down. With her full time employment status changed, she made the decision to refocus her attention on her "side project." This led to the rebranding and launch of KikiBlu Marketing.

KikiBlu Marketing can handle small one person jobs to large multi-disciplinary projects. In addition to full-time employee, Kim Barb, there is a strong team of freelancers in place that work in an array of specialties. Most importantly, the KikiBlu team has been working together for years doing this type of work. Your project can scale up or down and the resources will be available to handle it without any extra work or worry on your part. We cover it all.

What's in a name?

Interesting name you might say. Well, "Kiki" was the nickname for Kim's first true love, Kierra - her Rhodesian Ridgeback / Boxer mix. She was her constant companion for over 13 years. And, "Blu" is shortened Australian slang for bluey, which means redhead. That part is pretty self explanatory. So a lot of love in the name, plus a little stealth-ness with her initials KB.

"Kim has been a strategic valued partner to HP and our marketing activities. Kim is a result- driven marketer and has shown she has strong leadership qualities. Working with Kim was a pleasure she was very professional, organized, brought a lot of insight and creativity to the projects. Everything that she worked on for our organization was successful and contributed to our success. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone looking for a professional, creative, leader for marketing and demand generation activities." - Todd Davidson, Director Sales 3D Print Americas at HP
