Strategic Consulting

Some of you did not come here to build a business, you came here to build a new world – and while the 3D realities of business management are inescapable, they draw down time and energy you'd rather spend living your passion and purpose.

Let's get you the support you need, so you can get back to the work you were meant to be doing.

The Problem: Where to Invest First?

You know your business or visionary project deserves to receive industry leading strategy and expert management, but all the executive roles that need to be filled – finance, marketing, operations – are overwhelming to consider, even at fractional levels. How do you prioritize and know where to start? After all, you're tapped into an abundance mindset but you're not playing with tech bro money, and much of the advice that comes from the startup world just doesn't apply to your needs.

The Solution: Blended Fractional Support

When Safa Bee worked for Ogilvy, she spent years "dual tracking" her career – simultaneously serving as a business analyst (tracking revenue and account progress to calculate Ogilvy's internal profitability and make strategic business decisions) while also providing marketing strategy in a client-facing account management role to global Fortune 100 companies.

She trained Intel's PR team, wrote Adobe's social media playbooks and provided data-informed content creation strategies to Pantene and Purina, at the same time she was also providing behind-the-scenes analysis and insights that shaped Ogilvy's service offerings, business development recommendations and staffing decisions.

And while we certainly don't recommend burning the candle at both ends like this (hence the development of our own passion project: Bee Nourished), the Ogilvy years did provide Safa with the professional knowledge and experience that allows her to provide clients with expertise that crosses traditional professional category lines.

These years were also the inspiration to assemble the Bijou Collective team.

When you invest in Strategic Consulting, you receive so much more than Safa could offer alone.

You also get Jamie Elle Toscani, the operational expert who will take your business from running on a (metaphorical?) coffee stained pile of sticky notes to running like a cascade of carefully set dominoes: so well choreographed it's soothing to watch the steps in motion.

And you'll have access to the complete Impact Studio team: a dedicated account manager to take care of the day-to-day oversight of your implementation plans, and exactly the specialists you need to put those plans in motion.

So if you've been asking yourself, "Should I hire a fractional CFO first, or should I start with a marketing strategist, or with operations management?" the answer to this question is YES.
