Mary Hickman Kruszewski, the founder of MHK Marketing Group, LLC, has been a marketing professional for over 20 years. Her clients have ranged from small entrepreneurs to international companies.

"I find my clients know their business, but they need a go-to resource that will pull together their marketing efforts and provide on-going support and consistency," says Mary. "That's where I can help, and why the work is so exciting. It feels great to see a focused marketing plan add value to a client's business," she adds.

Prior to her move to marketing consulting, Mary held several marketing leadership positions in the telecommunications industry. Early in her career, she held positions in accounting and finance which provided a solid financial and analytical foundation. She brings the perspective of being creative and effective, yet resourceful and fiscally responsible to the marketing efforts of her clients.

Her background includes a MBA (Master of Business Administration) from Wayne State University and a BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) from the University of Michigan-Dearborn with a double major in finance and marketing. Always eager to keep her skills sharp, she also attended the Specs Howard School of Media Arts graduating in graphic design with a focus on the latest techniques in print and digital media.

Mary lives in the metro Detroit area with her husband and two daughters. She enjoys yoga, waking her yellow lab, the arts, old houses, and traveling. She is a self proclaimed can't-say-no "serial volunteer" and is especially passionate about helping others succeed in business.
