Hi. I’m Katherine Watier Ong. For twenty-five years, I have been passionate about creating and implementing strategic integrated marketing plans. I founded Watier Ong Strategies (WO Strategies, LLC) to help in-house marketers develop and implement stronger digital marketing strategies.

In the last ten years, my focus has been in the digital marketing strategy world where I have worked both in-house and agency with organizations ranging from startup to Fortune 500 companies. I’ve had the distinct pleasure of working with B2B, B2C, nonprofits, and government agencies to improve their standings on the web. That work has left me passionate about helping in-house marketers drive results from their marketing programs by leveraging their marketing data.

I thrive in helping marketers improve enterprise level websites within large organizations, or helping search teams increase their results.

I’m a change agent, an “out of the box” thinker, and a passionate digital marketer. I share that passion via my client engagements and one-on-one personal digital marketing coaching sessions.

I create campaigns that have drive website traffic and conversions for clients, many of which are in-house or agency marketers strapped for resources and time.

Some of these results included:

• Losing 3 websites due to too much traffic. In one case, the campaign drove 1.2 million (up from 300K) to one website in one month.
• Creating and implementing the marketing and sales plan for 1-800-volunteer.org which made it the market leader in under 3 years and increased website traffic by 300%.
• Creating the strategy and leading the team that helped New Yorkers get their health care questions answered via social media for the New York State of Health. This resulted in 40,000 New Yorkers signing up for health insurance during week one – more than any other state exchange.
• Changing search behavior and driving implementation of electronic health records for the US Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of the National Coordinator.

I love to help clients stay on top of the latest in search & social developments, and help them or their teams thrive as the “rules” change. I’m a technology geek and wrote the first consumer study about the adoption of wearable computers.

I’ve helped recruit, assess and hire search teams. I’ve evaluated digital marketing employee performance and helped streamline internal digital marketing processes. I’ve helped inspire and bring together teams that are critical for digital marketing success.

I’d love to help you – whether you’re a more seasoned digital marketer looking for a second opinion, or you just got digital marketing “dropped” on your lap, I can help you sort out the most effective strategy for your organization to streamline your operations and grow traffic.
