FAQs

  • Why wouldn't I just hire a traditional agency?

    Two reasons:  1.  We're 93% cheaper, 2. We're 4x faster!  We can help you reach your big goals and ongoing milestones faster and for less investment - ensuring more of your funds go to your mission.

  • Why wouldn't I just hire a full-time employee in-house?

    Good question! For starters, the average annual cost of a full-time senior-level analyst, corporate fundraiser, CSR exec, account manager, or graphic designer is approximately $85,000, plus benefits.   It also takes an average of 3-6 months to hire and acclimate a new team member - yet, your goals don't pause in the meantime.


    With the monthly plan, you can pause and resume your subscription as often as you need to ensure you're only paying your expert when you need them and for the exact type of work you need in the moment.




  • Why are you so much cheaper than a typical agency?

    Typical consultants and agencies use their experience and insight to create strategies for their clients, while charging a hefty premium.  We know this model well - we used to be and own a traditional consultancy!


    We also know it limits the amount of clients we can support by pricing many out of the market, and limits the the long-term exposure we can have with clients.


    Instead, we use AI and Automation to disrupt the traditional agency/consulting model.  

    Wait - don't get too freaked out!  Here's what we use AI for:


    A.I.-Powered Analytics:  Instead of spending hours (and charging you for it) collecting and analyzing data to identify trends, patterns, and insights that can help our clients make informed decisions, the rise of A.I.-powered analytics tools makes our processes faster, more accurate, and more efficient.  Less time for us = less cost for you.


    A.I.-Powered Automation: Traditional consultants a lot of support staff to help streamline operations and increase project efficiency. However, with the rise of A.I.-powered automation, we can now automate many of these processes without the need for human intervention.  Less humans for us = less cost and faster deliverables for you.


    A.I.-Powered Expertise:  We've trained our own A.I. with our experience, proprietary frameworks, algorithms and case studies.  A.I. can analyze vast amounts of data in minutes and apply our own unique perspective to help inform custom deliverables for all of our clients.  Less time spent on analysis = faster deliverables for you.

  • Is there a limit to how many requests I can have?

    Once subscribed, you're able to add as many analysis, strategy or execution requests to your queue as you'd like, and they will be delivered one by one.

  • How quickly will I receive my projects?

    On average, most requests are completed in just 30-60 days or less. However, more custom, complex requests can take longer.

  • What exactly will I receive?

    Typical requests are delivered in 30-60 days or less. This includes the specific scope of work for each agreed upon project.  For a list of deliverables for each type of project, request it here.   

  • Who are your experts?

    You might be surprised to hear this, but Purpose People is actually an agency of one. This means you'll work directly with me, founder of Purpose People. However, custom requests are often supported by other experts in the field.  Meet our network of experts we call on for support here.

  • How does the pause feature work?

    We understand you may not have enough work to fill up entire month. Perhaps you only have one or two strategy or execution requests at the moment. That's where pausing your subscription comes in handy.


    Billing cycles are based on 31 day period. Let's say you sign up and use the service for 21 days, and then decide to pause your subscription. This means that the billing cycle will be paused and you'll have 10 days of service remaining to be used anytime in the future.

  • How do you handle custom requests?

    Larger, custom requests are broken down on Purpose People's end.  We work directly with you to create a custom scope of work and timeline that is agreeable, and assign a custom expert to support your requests.  

  • How do I request a new project?

    To request a new project, simply log into your account and click "Request New Project".  Follow the prompts from there to tell us what you need and we'll deliver!

  • What if I don't like my project?

    We do our very best to surpass your expectations. However, if you're still not satisfied, we will either revise the project until you're 100% satisfied, or you can request a "credit" to your account to apply for future projects.

  • What if I only have one request?

    That's fine. You can pause your subscription when finished and return when you have additional project needs. There's no need to let the remainder of your subscription go to waste.

  • What if I need more support one month?

    No problem!  You can purchase additional "project credits" a la carte at any time.  


    Analysis Credits                           $500 

    Strategy Credits                        $1,000 

    Training Credits (90-min) $1,000 

    Execution Credits                $1,000 

  • What if I'm not satisfied with the services, can I request a refund?

    Due to the high quality nature of the work, there will be no refunds issued.
