Why we’re awesome
Calm under pressure with a proven track record for change.
We focus exclusively on nonprofits and foundations, organizations working to solve the world’s biggest challenges. We understand your unique challenges, from tight budgets and board dynamics to legislative timelines and grassroots advocacy. We bring deep sector experience (working in English and Spanish) without the bureaucracy of a large agency. We're nimble enough to jump on a last-minute opportunity, yet connected to a proven network of designers, web developers, trainers, social media strategists, videographers and others who can grow with your needs.
Our Process in Action
Evaluate.
Audit.
Discuss.
Implement.
Every project is different so we always start by listening. We take the time to understand what makes you special, where you're succeeding, and where there might be hurdles in the way. Then we dig in, auditing your materials, scanning your landscape, and evaluating what's working. Then we bring you recommendations that are specific, actionable, and realistic for your budget and capacity.
But we don't stop at a hefty report full of things you can't afford. We actually implement. Whether it's pitching journalists, training your spokespeople, rewriting your messaging, or coordinating with our network to execute a full campaign, we make it happen.
“A steady hand is exactly right!
Oliver was the person we needed to launch our new brand and reintroduce ourselves to our community. He was organized and unflappable, with the knowledge to guide our decision-making on our key messages and how best to deliver them.”
— Anne Discher, Executive Director, Common Good Iowa
