An extensive listing of recent clients is on the “Clients Page” of this website.

| What are some typical NESC consulting projects? |

Many involve strategic and business planning. Others include Board development, marketing and communications, executive search, fundraising strategies, organizational analysis, financial management assistance and more. |
|
| |
|
|
| What is your average fee? |
| |
Fees are very reasonable. In fact they are a small fraction of what commercial, for-profit consulting firms charge. Factors determining NESC fees include the complexity of the problem posed by the nonprofit and the amount of time required to complete the consulting assignment. |

| How does a nonprofit hire you? |

If you have a problem with which you’d like help or an opportunity for growth or change that you’re thinking of pursuing – or even if you’re just interested in learning more about our services, then contact us. An NESC Consultant then will set up an appointment to meet with you. After we learn more about you, we will send you a summary of our understanding of your situation and will outline how we think NESC can help you. This is called a Draft Proposal or Letter of Agreement for smaller work plans. It includes the details of the engagement as we see it: scope of the project, expected NESC deliverables at the project’s conclusion (such as a Strategic Plan or a Marketing Plan), timeline, staffing and, of course, the cost. If this meets with your approval, we initiate the project. |

|

| How can I learn more about NESC? |
