What We Do

Solve the Crisis of the Trust-Dependent Venture

CultureCraft solves a singular problem in multiple ways: Outgrowing your ability to grow. Every client we've ever taken on was built on the value that the firm provided to its clients. That value (plus a lot of hard work) created a path to a certain level of success. Risks were taken. Sweat equity spent.

Then, perhaps slowly, perhaps suddenly, it stopped working.

At this point, firms start reaching. The reach for expensive digital marketing tactics. They buy leads. They staff up. All the while missing what got them where they are cannot and will not get them where they are going next.

We work with firms that have three common features.

1. Hard to quantify value. There's nothing tactical about what you do. You are an engine of transformation.
2. Substantial investment from your core customer. You aren't selling paper towels or cheap programs.
3. Things get better with time. Your best value takes months if not years to fully deliver. This is a partnership, not a sale.

We call firms that have these three qualities, "Trust-Dependent Ventures," for obvious reasons. Sometimes they are non-profit or education, sometimes they are professional or advisory services, sometimes they are B2B. In the business of trust those old categories that other people use to market their marketing services to you don't matter. What matters is expertise in how trust happens now. And since trust is fundamentally human, its expertise is not a business category, it is a way of being in the world.

You can access our expertise in four ways:

1. Free: Everything we offer through our Editions publishing platform here. Make sure you're subscribed.
2. One-Time Consult: For $500 you can have 90 minutes to breakdown what's happening in your firm and have Nick (founder) react and answer questions.
3. Coaching Program: We coach executives, entrepreneurs, and career marketers on how to reorient their value and their work to the flow of trust and solve the growth ceilings that are plaguing them. Book your no-obligation discovery session.
4. Venture Transformation Programs: We offer six transformation programs (what we call FAIRs) across the six factors of Trust-Made Growth: Positioning, Value Creation, Community, Org Design, Culture, and Point-of-View. These 8-12 week sprints address growth resistance, waste, and misalignment across the org that always occurs after a long stretch of success or stagnancy. You can find out if you are eligible for our Transformation Programs by starting with a no-obligation initial call.

We strongly recommend if you are even slightly curious, you start by taking our Trust-Made Growth Index Self-Assessment. It will take you 10 minutes of focused attention after which you give your email and we will follow up one time to have a free consultation on your results.

We have no sales team or hard-charging sales process. We will talk about what's not working for you, give you our best sense if and how we can help and clearly explain the next steps, either with us or without us.
