The work
Through strategy, operational improvement, and technology enablement - I help nonprofits do more with what they have today.
The Intro Sprint
Your stop-gap strategic-plan, or a practical roadmap to execute on an existing plan.
A two-month program to gather findings from across your organization, codify your strategic position, and develop a detailed action plan to put it into practice.
You'll finish the sprint with a board-ready report detailing key constraints, opportunities, recommendations for initiatives that you can get started today.
Right-sized, practical projects
Tactical expertise to fit any need
Hands-on support to solve real-world problems for your organization. Improve operational processes with standard procedures, automation, or lightweight and low-cost software solutions.
Continue your digital transformation by optimizing existing CRMs and databases, make your systems talk to each other, or find a new software solution altogether.
Augment your strategy with expansion plans or functional playbooks for communications, development, programs, and more.
Pro-bono services for growing nonprofits
Accelerated assessments for qualifying organizations below the 990 filing threshold.
A two-week program to assess the key constraints in your organization that might be holding you back from taking the next step. We'll look at strategy, fundraising, operations, volunteer coordination, program & service delivery, systems, and more.
Walk away with a professional, detailed report of the findings to inform grant applications, board engagement, or your next internal initiative. Yes - it is actually free.
The story
The story
I started this practice to deliver affordable support to community-based nonprofits.
I'm Dylan. After spending the early part of my career as a corporate employee and consultant, I quit.
I knew I had to pursue a career of impact serving values-driven organizations. Now I deliver best practices from some of the largest consultancies in the country to nonprofits that have been historically underserved and overcharged.
I deliver work according to three core principles:
Value: Projects are framed according to the value they create through time savings, cost savings, or increased development results
Price Transparency: You know exactly what you're getting, and for exactly what price - before we begin.
Increment: Every project is structured to take small steps together. Á-la-carte rather than all-or-nothing.
