Kathleen Gage is the "no-nonsense, common sense" online marketing strategist, speaker, author and owner of Power Up for Profits. Kathleen's clients are driven by making a difference through their own unique voice.

As an early adopter of online marketing, Kathleen is known for cutting through the fluff and helping people leave their sob stories behind so they can stop focusing on the past and start looking towards the future. She speaks and teaches about what she believes are the core elements of a successful life: accountability, integrity, honesty, and living with passion and hope.

Although Kathleen is recognized as a top leader in her field, this wasn't always the case. Kathleen made choices in her teens and early twenties that took her from a comfortable middle-class upbringing to a life of homelessness and being unemployable.
 
Kathleen Gage rose above seemingly insurmountable odds to become an award winning business owner, bestselling author, Internet sales and marketing trainer, and award winning keynote speaker.
With more than thirty years of experience in sales, marketing, management, public relations, and promotions, Kathleen has consulted with and trained organizations such as the U.S. Marine Corps, Novus Corporation, and AT&T. She has acted in leadership and advisory capacities for many organizations, including being past president of the National Speakers Association Utah Chapter, past vice-chair and marketing chair for the Central Region Council for the Department of Workforce Services of Utah, and a member of the legislative council for the American Cancer Society of Utah.

Kathleen has written dozens of information products and books, has hundreds of interviews to her credit, and is a highly skilled, inspirational keynote speaker. Her mission is to help people understand that their business is merely a means to get their message out to the world. She teaches that it's not just about what you do, but the reasons behind why you do it.

One of her most profound life changes was when, at the age of 64, Kathleen became a 100% plant based/vegan lifestylist, realizing that what she consumed directly impacted her ability to live the healthiest life possible. Since then, Kathleen received her certificate of completion in Plant Based Nutrition from eCornell University.

Kathleen believes in shattering stereotypes and refuses to settle for the status quo. She participated in her first full marathon at the age of 61, her first sprint triathlon at 64 and is now an avid runner who participates in races of varying distances. Kathleen will be the first to say, "I'm not a fast runner, just a stubborn and passionate ole' lady who refuses to act my age."

She is on a mission to raise awareness about how a whole food, plant-based lifestyle is not only a very healthy way to eat, it is also compassionate to animals and the environment. Kathleen loves working with those who are open to the possibility of what plant-based eating can do for them and their bottom-line (both the one they sit on and the one that reflects their revenues).
