FAQ
Do you only work with nonprofits?
While we work primarily for nonprofits, we will work with for profits so long as the workshop is non-commercial and aligns with our mission.
What if we charge for events?
We need to at least cover our costs. We take all the risk in our model for free events. If you charge we will negotiate a fair cut for our services.
Can we hire you for our workshop?
Yes, so long as the workshop is noncommercial and aligns with our mission we will negotiate a fair payment to cover our costs.
Do we have to co-brand with you?
Yes. Your brand will be dominant. If our brand though doesn't add value we're probably not aligned enough to work together anyway.
Will you run the workshops as well?
We run workshops all the time. The model that would work best in this area is if we can act as a funnel for your training programs. For example, if you run a workforce development program to certify people in the trades, we can run an entry level program in the same area and feed "graduates" to your program.
