It all starts with inspiring content. You have a vision that is worth working for, volunteering with, and donating to. Powerful, persuasive content is how you convey that vision.

 

We'll help you identify the key messages that will most resonate with people, and the voice to deliver it. Then we'll measure the results and optimize delivery to produce maximum results.
 

We create everything from social media, newsletters, training material, professional illustration, animation, design, or quality video that will serve to inspire people to take action.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

flame_only_transparentinside_grey_edited
  • Why work with a consultant?
    Working with a professional consultancy gives you access to a depth of knowledge and experience from organizations of varying sizes and across industries. That’s especially valuable when your organization lacks in-house expertise in a certain area or if your internal team has limited time or resources. You can access all of our experience and ability to produce results without many of the costs associated with hiring employees (taxes, insurance, benefits, etc.) or the extended time required to train them. We also help identify and mitigate risks. Our expertise enables us to foresee potential pitfalls and advise on the best course of action, thereby reducing the likelihood of costly delays or mistakes. By working with our talented team, you don't pay for the high overhead of old-school, bloated, brick and mortar firms. That ultimately saves you both time and money. You're paying for our results, not our rent.
  • Why are you a good fit for us?
    We're true partners with our clients. That's why we invest time getting to know you and truly understanding your strengths and opportunities. We don’t offer a one-size-fits-all approach; we tailor our strategies and solutions to meet the unique needs and goals of your organization. This customization ensures that the solutions are not only effective but also aligned with your company’s culture and values. We see things as they could be and are successful at challenging the status quo to help you achieve that vision. We're able to interpret the stories that data tell us and turn that into wisdom. We're also committed to honestly and respectfully having crucial conversations. Our team offers a diverse skillset and real-world, operational experience that is not typical in a consulting firm of any size. We don't do just one thing, because you don't do just one thing. In 2023 alone our team took on projects in more than 50 different categories, including financial forecasting, business valuation, contract negotiation, illustration, Board governance, executive coaching, and of course, strategic planning. We've led successful capital campaigns, established grant award programs, and built and executed year-long social media strategies. Our team created systems and development efforts to raise over $120 million in our careers. We're also on the leading edge as we integrate Artificial Intelligence and other technological platforms in everything we do. We can help you in every aspect of your operations. From conceiving growth strategies to actually using the tools, our experience isn't conceptual - we actually do the work.
  • What are some of your accomplishments?
    Since day one, 100% of our work has been referral or repeat business from satisfied clients. Here are some examples of our accomplishments: Raised more than $120,000,000 (and counting) including new systems, fundraising mechanisms, and grants awarded. Grew one non-profit's revenue almost 6X, from less than $480k to over $3M, in less than 2 years. Helped grow a new social media audience from zero to more than 100,000 in less than 12 months. Advised a $60M multinational non-profit on Board governance, marketing, and development. Completely rebuilt the accounting system and brokered the sale of a 3.5M local business. Helped design a grant program that now provides roughly 1M a yr in funding across the US. Redefined the Mission, Vision, and culture of a large non-profit experiencing significant growing pain. Led a capital campaign and collaborated on the design of a state-of-the-art non-profit veterinary clinic. Most importantly, we've helped improve and save lives. That's what we're most proud of.
