DRIVE charity impact and income in the digital age
Shrinking income, rising costs and growing demand on services
Unclear impact measures, struggling to use reliable data and user-insights to inform decision making
Do Any of these sound familiar?
Teams are stretched, working in silos and spend most of their time in meetings
Everything seems urgent rather than strategic and prioritising feels impossible in this reactive mode
You’re not alone.
Our sector is struggling. Charities need to adapt to thrive.
WHat I do
Carmen Barlow
I develop and deliver strategies for Charities to drive income and impact.
I help charities diagnose and fix their biggest challenges, whether it's boosting income, cutting costs, improving team collaboration, or setting clear, achievable goals. I co-create these tailored solutions rather than picking from an existing toolbox. Each charity's context is unique, I make sure we agree on my diagnosis before suggesting a remedy. This approached means we are aligned and there’s that trust and buy-in from the start. My focus is on practical solutions, I ensure you have the right skills, effective processes, and a clear, prioritised roadmap to become resilient and impactful in the digital age.
I ensure you diversify income streams, find cost-saving opportunities, and use insights and best practices to boost your fundraising and engagement.
I help you set clear goals and metrics, implement systems to track performance and impact, and foster a culture of measurement and accountability.
I identify team challenges, create custom processes to improve collaboration, reduce unnecessary meetings, and ensure you have the right people with the right skills.
I provide you with a clear, prioritised roadmap, aligned with your organisational strategic goals, with well defined actions to start benefitting from immediately.
You may not need all of these. You can pick and choose.
