For nearly two decades, Kristin Marquet has helped transform ambitious ideas into influential brands. As the Founder and CEO of Marquet Media and the creative force behind FemFounder™, she brings a rare blend of strategic insight, creative vision, and deep psychological understanding to the world of personal branding and public relations.

Through her work, Kristin empowers founders, executives, and creatives to move from obscurity to visibility by combining proven branding systems with cutting-edge technology and media placement expertise. She has earned her place as a trusted advisor in a fast-changing digital landscape, someone who helps others rise, not by shouting the loudest, but by building brands that speak with clarity and impact.

The FemFounder™ Movement

Kristin’s digital platform, FemFounder™, was designed to give female entrepreneurs more than motivation, it gives them structure. Through curated tools, frameworks, and strategic planning models, FemFounder™ supports women at every stage of business growth. From early-stage solopreneurs working to earn their first $50,000, to experienced founders scaling to six and multi-six figures, the platform’s tiered offerings are both accessible and results-driven.

Its proprietary frameworks, including PRISM Ascend™, Dual Catalyst Visibility™, and Elevate Influence™, are grounded in research and refined through real-world implementation. Each service tier is structured to meet clients where they are, offering practical solutions without compromising on sophistication or strategic depth.

A Journey Built on Insight and Adaptability

Kristin’s professional path began in public relations and digital strategy. In 2009, she launched her own agency, transitioning from a background in management consulting to focus on branding and media visibility full time. Since then, she has developed proprietary public relations frameworks, guided thousands of media placements, and advised clients across industries.

Her academic foundation is equally robust. With credentials from NYU and MIT, and ongoing studies at Harvard, she continues to deepen her understanding of human behavior, decision-making, and communication. This ongoing education supports her belief that branding is both art and science—rooted in emotion, shaped by experience, and sharpened by data.

Principles That Define Her Success

Kristin credits her success to a combination of adaptability, integrity, and creative precision. She values originality and believes that brand-building should reflect not just what people do but who they are becoming. Her strategic choices are informed by intuition and guided by measurable outcomes, helping clients align their brand identity with their long-term goals.

Above all, she believes in designing businesses that are both human-centered and scalable. Her work consistently focuses on helping clients lead with purpose, express their individuality, and remain agile in a changing market.

The Business Behind the Brand

Marquet Media’s service offerings are structured into four tiers:

·       Tier 0 features low-cost, high-value digital tools such as pricing strategy templates and visibility planners, designed to serve early-stage entrepreneurs.

·       Tier 1 delivers targeted micro-programs and content frameworks that help founders build foundational visibility and reach their first major revenue milestones.

·       Tier 2 offers advanced consulting for women-led brands ready for media exposure and strategic brand development at scale.

·       Tier 3 combines executive branding, PR, AI-driven brand assessments, and insights from industrial-organizational psychology. This high-touch offering supports rising thought leaders seeking elite positioning.

Each tier is crafted to provide more than services—it’s about creating pathways for sustainable growth and market credibility. Kristin’s commitment to innovation, brand aesthetics, and strategic planning keeps her firm competitive and forward-thinking.

Innovation as a Strategic Imperative

Innovation is central to every initiative Kristin leads. Her agency is continuously evolving to incorporate advanced technologies, such as AI for brand diagnostics and emotionally intelligent campaign design. These tools are not used as gimmicks, they are embedded in a larger strategy that values both metrics and meaning.

As Kristin explains, the next phase of brand-building will focus on understanding how emotion, perception, and technology intersect. This is especially evident in her Tier 3 offerings, which integrate neuroscience, psychology, and automation into deeply personalized branding strategies.

Leadership in Practice

As CEO, Kristin oversees vision development, service innovation, and brand integrity across all tiers. She remains hands-on in crafting client strategies and refining brand narratives. Her favorite part of each day is working directly with clients hearing their stories, helping shape their message, and watching them grow into confident, visible leaders.

Outside the professional sphere, Kristin is a mother and a lifelong learner. She is passionate about balancing family life with her career and values the everyday moments spent with her son and husband. This grounded approach influences how she leads valuing alignment, emotional growth, and authenticity.

Advice to Aspiring Leaders

Kristin’s advice to new leaders is simple but impactful: lead with clarity and trust. Understand your values early on and let them guide every decision. Delegate wisely and empower your team. And above all, don’t build out of fear, build with a vision.

“Leadership,” she says, “is not about holding control. It’s about creating environments where others can rise, contribute meaningfully, and bring out their best.”
