Kasandra Murray

Marketing & Operations Consultant

Kasandra is a Marketing and Operations Consultant whose passion for creativity and efficiency has evolved into a career of designing processes built with people in mind. She brings a rare perspective by consulting on both marketing and operations - two areas most consultants treat separately.

Kasandra believes the two go hand in hand: marketing can generate leads, but operations determine how sales teams close those leads, and customer service turns them into recurring business.

Without alignment, businesses risk missed opportunities, overworked employees, and dissatisfied customers. Her consulting approach bridges the gap between marketing’s creativity and operations’ analytical structure. She helps businesses improve not just lead generation, but also the internal systems that support growth. Her methods focus on quality-of-life improvements to processes that reduce workload, strengthen teams, and create seamless customer experiences.

Kasandra has over a decade of experience working with employees and leadership, implementing her frameworks, such as company promises to employees, the common-sense fallacy, and the operations improvement funnel. She is the founder of Unlucky Umbrella Studio, where she helps businesses align marketing and operations strategies so growth is not only achieved, but sustained.

Speaking Topics:

  • The Operations Improvement Funnel: Create a streamlined business ecosystem.

  • The Disconnect Between Marketing and Operations: Why brilliant marketing campaigns fail.

  • Marketing Alone Isn't Enough: Marketing drives leads, but operations turn those leads into customers and repeat business.

  • Close the Loop Between Marketing Promises and Operational Delivery: Turning training into a growth lever within your business.
