Collaborating with Community Consultants

Consider Collaborating with consultants for your next project

Join the Community Consultants Collective on April 5th for a Collaborative Community Circle.

You may have heard “collaboration,” but what does that mean for consultants? Do we collaborate? Aren’t we competing with each other for business? Have you considered hosting a workshop but didn’t want to do it alone?

What about starting a new service offering without knowing how to start? These are just some reasons to attend the CCC upcoming April session, where we will share ideas, give tips, and discuss collaboration openly.

Founded in September of 2021, the CCC (as we call it) is a watering hole for community professionals transitioning to freelance and consulting work to get support, training, and the tools to grow their expertise.

You can request to join us via this form if you aren’t already a member.

A few collaborations have blossomed from the CCC, including the following:

• In 2022, Todd Nilson and Ilker Akansel started TalentLed Community Consultancy

• John Summers brought on Carolyn Zick to get his startup, Comunify, off the ground.

• Todd Nilson brought Deb Schell and Jamie Langskov to Clocktower Advisors as Consultants.

• In the fall of 2022, The Community Strategy Podcast aired an episode featuring the CCC members, who all shared their thoughts on trends for the community industry.

• In addition, the CCC trends article was published on the Clocktower Advisors blog and website, further highlighting the consultants.

• In March, CCC members joined together for a live stream to celebrate International Women’s Day and hosted a live stream.
