No one likes a know-it-all. You know the type – The Type A, with all the answers, before you even finish stating your challenges. The guy with the cookie-cutter, best practices in his back pocket… ready to wow you with some things he took from a TedTalk, a YouTube video, or an info-graphic from Pinterest.
We all dread a guy coming in and telling us “things we can’t do” or things we could have just researched ourselves.
Who needs a consultant? Why bring in a guy you don’t really know? Can an outsider really help your organization anyway?
The Down Side:
- May have to hear some bad jokes
- Might have to challenge some “sacred cows”
- Some team members will assume “we are already doing great!”
- Might not have RIO
The Upside:
- A fresh prospective
- Success stories in the industry
- Knowledge of trends
- Low hanging fruit to-do list
- Another resource / friend
- A outsider voice to help key decisions
- Locating a resource who can move the needle
- May pay for itself 10x-100x times over
There is a saying among consultants “Ideas have a short shelf life. You must act on them before they expire.”
I have never liked to call myself a consultant and I don’t “sell ideas”. I use the phrase Digital Guide. I take pride in being a partner, not a hired gun. Ideas and opportunities come and go. But a Guide points you in the right direction. Shows you landmines and opportunities.
My goal is to be the voice in the room that asks the right questions to help organizations find their pain points (not just the ones they think they have… the other ones). I help teams discover their areas of improvement. I point management towards options and assist laying out a plan to get us from “here to there.”
Through the years have helped companies and organizations bring in over $60,000,000+ online through donations or purchases. I know I can help your organization too. Having lead web teams of “2” to running a Communication team of 17, I have seen how organizations and churches work with in-house teams, through outsourcing, and everything in between.
Most of my clients ask me to come back before I ever leave. I take pride in that.
