Mission

WordCraft has as its mission to provide excellent, individualized strategic services to arts organizations and other non-profits to encourage their viability and growth.

Now, I wrote that Mission Statement, and I like it.  But why do you care; what does it really mean to you?

  • I strive, in all that I do, to provide services that are excellent and individualized. I may rely on past experience to design what I do for you, but what you get from me is created specifically to address what you and your organization need. Right now.

  • I often gather data by interviewing people, or conducting surveys, and there’s strategic intent behind my methods. Do you need to know more about how clients perceive your work? I can do that. Do you want to assess the effectiveness of your services? You bet. How about a strategic plan to guide your organization into the future? Let’s get planful, and then get to work.

  • I have a real passion for nonprofits in general, and arts-based organizations in particular. I value what you do to make our communities better for children and adults alike. So I’ve chosen to focus my time and talents on ensuring that you can effectively and convincingly tell the story of the great work you do.

  • Of course I want my company to be successful. But I’m in business to help you flourish. I want to work with you to ensure your viability and growth. Growing and strengthening your nonprofit to ensure years of success is good for both of us.

Working with Becky is a great experience. She is extremely concerned with delivering extraordinary services and strives to give every client more than they expect.
