Kristin Harrison
As Director of Business Development at WebStrategies, I help credit unions build better relationships with their members through smart, results-driven marketing. I work closely with credit union leaders to make the most of what they know about their members, turning that knowledge into opportunities for growth and stronger connections. As a HubSpot Diamond Partner, we bring powerful tools that help credit unions see real results from their marketing efforts. I understand the day-to-day challenges credit unions face, and I'm dedicated to finding solutions that help them better connect with and serve their members. Working with our talented team, I make sure every partnership creates real value and positive changes that credit unions can see and measure.
