A Note from the Founders

Welcome! We’re glad you’re here!

 

Our Story

Our journey began several years ago with a service-based digital marketing and sales agency. We had a simple vision: to meet the real-world needs of businesses and business owners. Inspired by helping clients through digital transitions, we created a consultancy that prioritized client needs and goals related to sales, marketing, and web development. With Off the Ground Ventures, we are taking that concept to the next summit, including AI strategy, tech stack vendor selection assistance, and training on key systems, AI, and software tools. We now coach our clients into new ventures of their own!

Our Mission

At OTGV, our mission is to empower people with resources and tools, but mostly inspiration and coaching to see their goals become reality. It’s tough building a concept, a book, a huge initiative, or a new company alone. From decades of experience, we empower our clients’ capabilities with real world know-how and subject matter expertise. We want our clients to win and we’re here to co-create pathways to that success.

We are fiercely dedicated to continuous learning and innovation. By partnering with us, businesses gain a trusted ally and advisor. We act as sherpas, guiding our clients through new terrain with the the right tools and resources.

Our Values

We believe in the power of the human spirit to overcome obstacles. We are committed to delivering exceptional service. We treat others ethically, with kindness, honesty and respect, and develop optimal working relationships with our clients.

Today, we are excited to launch Off the Ground Ventures, working closely with clients to deliver solutions that not only achieve their immediate goals but also build paths to many future successes. Thank you for considering us as your partner in innovation.

Co-Founder & Managing Partner

Hi, I’m the Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Off the Ground Ventures, where we help people and businesses succeed in practical, human-centered ways. With decades of sales, marketing, and tech training, I enjoy helping clients discover new ways to conquer challenges and spur business growth.

I design strategies, training, and tools that boost productivity, sales, and learning outcomes. I have advised, partnered with, and trained clients, from small business to Fortune 500 companies, on SaaS, LMS, AI, and multiple digital learning resources. Over the years, I’ve trained 1,000+ professionals, from university leaders and authors to enterprise teams, partnering with brands like FedEx, Forrester, Citi, Starbucks, and UC/CSU systems.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me spending time with family, writing, and enjoying central coast life.

Kyle Zook

Co-Founder & Tech Advisor

I help teams work smarter with practical tools, thoughtful automations, and skills that won’t expire. For 20+ years at the overlap of marketing and technology, I’ve led creative/digital teams serving clinical, pharma, and food & beverage—owning web and content ops, multichannel campaigns, and analytics so delivery stays on-brand, on-time, and measurable. Day to day, that means website governance, blogs/newsletters, LinkedIn/Google Ads coordination, intranet upkeep, GA4 dashboards, and ClickUp-driven sprints that keep Sales, CX, and Product in sync.

I’m wired to turn real problems into collaborative, integrity-first solutions. My sweet spot: streamlining and building digital assets, designing automation that sticks, and recalibrating marketing with a holistic lens. Off the clock, I’m reading, writing, and chasing weekend adventures.

What Our Clients Say

“Kristin created and developed the new Enterprise market segment for our organization, including pricing, contracts, and print and online collateral materials. She then executed the model by prospecting for and converting new enterprise level customers from around the world. Occasionally, this included negotiation calls at all hours to accommodate time zones. Kristin is a driven sales professional.”

Kevin, Training Company Partner, Enterprise Sales & Marketing Client

Immediate professional working relationship with Kyle and Kristin. Our website redesign and multi-site solution for our insurance agents was the exact solution we needed.

Phil, Insurance Company President, Digital Marketing & Multi-site Client

“I would highly recommend Kyle for web service design, implementation and anything related this field. He has a great sense of style, a collaborative approach, and above all is blessed with patience, which helped me on the projects that we put together. Thumbs up to Kyle!”
