Our Services

We help organizations raise more money, inform the public, and make a stronger case for their causes.

How we work

1) Audit & Strategy

We start by getting a clear picture of where you stand (the audit). We help you understand what's working and what isn't. Then, we help you prioritize (the strategy). We help you choose your direction forward.

2) Plan & Implementation

With the strategy as our guide, we build a practical plan for your next steps. After the plan, we can stay on as a partner to help guide what comes next, fill gaps, and help you adapt if (or more likely, when) things change.

Let's work together!

  • Explain your impact to the people with the purse, without feeling like you’re losing your soul.

  • Engage neighbours and strangers in your cause.

  • Meet Canadian digital accessibility standards.

  • Achieve consistent, engaging communications across materials.

FAQ

  • Currently, we provide service in Canadian English and Canadian French.

    Stay tuned, this list is likely to grow.

  • We help our clients build internal capacity in a variety of areas.

    Frequent topics include Plain Language Training, Fundraising Basics, and Accessible Communications.

    We are pleased to provide custom workshops upon request.

  • We will not:

    • Execute communications without being involved in strategy (if you’re looking for someone to “just” manage your Meta, we are not for you).

    • Stick with a plan if it is not working — sometimes, informed adjustments are essential to meeting your goals.

    • Engage in projects that not align with our values (for example, projects that promote war or are exploitative).

  • We may bring on additional team members to support clients in a project. For example, our core team members don’t do interior design, but we can partner with trusted designers to help connect your communications plan with your physical space. If we aren’t able to support you, we will let you know and try out best to help you find a service provider who can.

  • We work in many sectors, including health, justice, arts & culture, sport and more. As long as the work your organization does is aligned with our values, we’d love to work with you!
