Strategic Growth Model Consulting
Your non-profit is sitting on a valuable asset that can supercharge your mission’s growth:
The data that you have.
There's Power in
Knowing Your Data
Being able to understand your data and make data-informed decisions allows you to work smarter - not harder - in order to grow a non-profit and make the impact you desire.
What if your data was completely organized, easy to analyze, and you had the training and knowledge of how to put that data to work?
With over 15 years of helping C-suite executives leverage the power of their data, we help non-profits make confident decisions using the power of their own data.
Imagine This:
Imagine getting in your car to start a roadtrip, but realizing your phone is dead and you don’t have your phone charger. All the GPS superpowers inside your phone are locked up, and you’re left to take uncertain turn after turn. Ultimately, perhaps you’ll find your way to your destination, but it may take longer than you thought, be riddled with challenges, and make for a rather uncomfortably uncertain trip.
This is what growing your non-profit is like without tapping into the strategic assets of your own data.
By creating your custom Strategic Growth Model, you can confidently sit in the driver’s seat, knowing that each decision and step you take to grow your non-profit is rooted in measured data, evidence, guided by human intelligence and your expertise in your field.

Working with Sarah has been incredibly productive. It gave me the confidence and clarity to recommend strategic shifts to our team. The best news is that the team is on board, and we've set the plan in motion that I developed with Sarah. I love how clearly the work we did connects our staff's activities and strengths to the impact we have in the community.

Mill City Grows
With Impact Aligned we talked through what the goals of the program were, we thought about the things that we could measure, and we created a Tracker and a Dashboard to look at how we were achieving our goals, and how we were charting revenue and expenses. This let us look at who we've helped overall, how we've helped them, as well as how much it's costing us in terms of inputs and what we're getting in terms of outputs. It gives us a really clear picture of how this brand new program is working.
