Technology advice for associations & nonprofits
Your members, finally in one picture.
AMS, events, courses, email, giving: five systems, five versions of the same person. I help associations and nonprofits get their systems telling one story, from someone who has run technology inside an association.
Four ways in. Start with the smallest.
No budget, headcount or timeline questions at the door. Pick whatever matches how sure you are.
Ask one question
Name, email, the question. I read it and answer it myself.
Ask → 5 minutesReadiness check
Fifteen questions, two scores, three next steps. Results on screen, no email needed.
Start → 21 daysStack assessment
A fixed-scope read of your systems, vendors, contracts and data. No surprise invoices.
See scope → Scoped togetherBigger work
AMS selection, data platforms, fractional leadership, a stalled program back on track.
Services →What “ask a question” actually looks like
Think of it as asking a friend who’s run IT at an association. You write in, I write back. Most questions end there, and if one turns into something bigger, we’ll both know why.
An illustrative exchange, not a real client.
What I help with
Every engagement is led by someone who has built, bought, run or retired the technology in question.
Technology strategy
Roadmaps, vendor strategy, RFPs, fractional CIO/CTO, board briefings.
Systems modernization
AMS, CRM and ERP selection and implementation oversight.
Data & analytics
Warehouses sized to you, BI people trust, data governance.
AI & automation
What's useful, what isn't, and the data it needs first.
Program leadership
Multi-vendor programs run, rescued and carried over the line.
Mostly associations and nonprofits, with operator experience in manufacturing and distribution, retail, and B2B services.
