(more) about me

Hannah Bain

howdy!

Hi, I’m Hannah. I'm a recent agency account manager turned independent consultant with a simple goal: helping good people who run good organizations see real results. You could say I like helping them reap what they sow… hence, Harvest Strategy Co.

I’m now based in Chicago, IL, but grew up in Charleston, SC and bring its laid-back-beach-southern-hospitality hybrid vibe with me always. I also spent nearly four years living in the UK, half in Edinburgh, half in London. In 2023, I earned my MSc in Strategic Communications and PR with Distinction at Queen Margaret University.

From the end of undergrad (woo 2020, what a weird year!) until May 2026, I was working with Scribe CHS, a small content services firm. During those five years and working as the sole employee for most of that time, I honed invaluable skills across account management, public relations, strategic communications, and marketing. At one point simultaneously managing 7 client accounts and handling 360 marketing/PR, I’m used to handling all sorts of competing deadlines and keeping everything smooth and moving despite that.

Simply put, I love what I do, I bring curiosity to everything I do, and I’m excited to work with any organization, from e-commerce to B2B to nonprofit to healthcare, that believes digging deep > spreading thin.

dig,

plant,

harvest

As you may have already read on the homepage, I cannot half-do anything (a blessing and a curse). Before any strategy takes shape, I dig deep into an organization's existing content, stakeholders, competitors, and performance data, all grounded in their specific goals and challenges. This research-first approach is something I honed through graduate school and have never been able to shake. No secret formula here: just extensive, intentional digging. (Please excuse the plant metaphors.)

From there, the real planting begins. What starts as a strategic plan grows into the tactics you need, deployed where they'll matter most. I specialize in integrated marketing and communications, with the range and speed to master new channels as your needs evolve. Browse my case studies for a look at both the strategic and the tactical: brand audits, campaign planning, email marketing, website development and optimization, copywriting, media relations, influencer management, and more.
