Kristen Wright Strategic Communications

What Kristen Wright Strategic Communications does

Kristen Wright Strategic Communications is a solo-practitioner strategic communications consultancy headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, founded by Kristen Wright in 2021. The firm delivers integrated strategic communications through 1-year exclusive contracts that bundle audience research, strategic planning, content creation across marketing, digital, news, and advertising formats, and fractional chief communications officer execution. Add-on services include à la carte writing, editing, and sponsored content work for non-conflicted clients, plus founder-delivered speaking, moderation, news anchoring, and reporting for webcasts, conferences, and in-person events.

The underlying deliverable is human-led professional services rather than technology; there are no proprietary platforms, software products, APIs, or AI systems. The service model is differentiated by the founder's individual credentials: 20+ years as a journalist and communications executive, former Editor in Chief of the Petroleum Equipment Institute (a trade association with members in 80+ countries), ASAE Certified Association Executive designation, 2024 U.S. Department of Energy Energy Innovator Fellow, and prior international reporting experience across the U.K., Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, and France.

Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring 1-year integrated strategic communications contracts, à la carte project work billed on a professional services basis, and speaking/event services. Distribution is founder-led via free consultations, custom proposals, a website with newsletter capture, blog content, and speaking engagements. The firm claims to serve clients globally, with no disclosed customer logos, pricing, or revenue figures.
