Creative Solutions

Consulting + Strategy

Let’s face it. Everybody can benefit from an outsider’s point-of-view. Sometimes you just need to take a step back from what you’re working on in order to see it clearly. And sometimes, you need the advice of a specialist. 

I can offer that bird’s-eye view you’re looking for while providing your organization with effective ways to strengthen your live event. If you’re in the middle of the planning process and you feel like something’s not quite working, or you’re “stuck,” I can provide you with creative solutions.

I’ve spent the past decade and a half working in the world of nonprofits and events. And, as I’m sure you can imagine, this means I have worn a lot of hats -- often at the same time!  Being responsible for a plethora of to-do’s that are simultaneously calling my attention has only made my event planning capabilities stronger. I know how to calm the chaos and use it in a productive way. 

Events are about so much more than a single night. Rather, they are about cultivating relationships and furthering your organization or business’ cause. 

Advance Your Mission

When planning a big event, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by details that may not support your overall mission. I can help you streamline your efforts and ensure that every action you take is in line with your organizational goals. 

 

Build Relationships

Your organization’s live event is an opportunity to build and maintain relationships with past, current and potential donors/customers. It’s prime face-to-face time. It’s community building. 

Knowing this, I focus on your organization’s specific purpose in order to ensure the right people are arriving at your event, and that you’re giving them the right experience. Your event should tell an impactful story so that your guests can connect with your group on a deeper level. 

 

Manage Your Budget 

Whether you are a nonprofit or corporate organization, I can give you valuable guidance so that every dollar is wisely spent for your next big event. 

Due to my extensive event experience, I am skilled at working with tight budgets and thinking outside the box to come up with creative (and less expensive!) solutions to problems that may arise.

Do you want to make your event stronger?
