B-Corp Feature! 🌎

This week we are highlighting fellow B-Corp, Conspiracy of Love.

Conspiracy of love isn't just any marketing agency, but instead, they call themselves a global social impact marketing agency.

Why?

Co-Founders, Afdhel Aziz and Bobby Jones both had careers in marketing, but they came to a crossroads when they stopped and asked themselves a very life-altering question...

"Is this the work we are going to be remembered for, getting people to buy more stuff?"

Clearly, their answer was "No". They were meant to do so much more.

From this realization, they committed themselves to building a movement that would help people to use business and culture as forces for good.

Thus, Conspiracy of Love was born!

We're proud to be a part of the same community as like-minded organizations like Conspiracy of Love 😊

89% of employees have experienced burnout at some point in the last year, and 70% would consider leaving their current job for other companies that offered more resources to support them.

The times have changed - people need more out of their employer! 👊

Your company’s culture, mission, and purpose will attract talented people and inspire them to do their best work.

But loyalty doesn’t take hold until your employees are living their best lives.

B-Corp Feature! 🌎

Being a B-Corp ourselves, one of our goals is to connect and strengthen the community, so this week we wanted to highlight a fellow B-Corp, Avenue Digital Marketing Agency!

Avenue has been in business for the past six years and has been a B-Corp for 4 of those years. Their mission is to "Amplify the impact growth-minded and purpose-driven companies have in the world through results-led digital marketing."

You can see in their 2021 Impact report an enormous list of initiatives that define them as a company that wants to make the world a better place and not just one seeking profit.

One of the examples of what makes them great (among several others) is that they donate 5% or more of annual revenue to local nonprofits to amplify their good work and impact. Amazing!

We're proud to be a part of the same community as companies like Avenue. 😊

Outdated programs, systems not working, constant software crashes, utterly slow computer... The list goes on.

These are all things that have likely driven you a little nuts from time to time. But, what if this is was a daily occurrence? The stress from this would be painful to bear and could bring down the morale and efficiency of your team. 👎

The goal of your technology stack should always be to make your organization more effective and increase connections between team members. Think better workflow + less stress = technology win!

Need some support getting your IT setup working to benefit everyone better? We can help 😊

When you’re on a mission to make the world a better place, nothing can stop you.

Well... except for a cyberattack that can cost you thousands of dollars, and shut down your systems for hours, days, or even permanently (60% of SMEs go out of business within a couple of years after a cyberattack...) 😬

Yes, it happens, and more often than you'd think.

Did you know that the US has become the biggest source of e-waste in the world? Most of that waste ends up polluting villages overseas. Pretty crazy, right? 😬

While this is a complex issue, there is one simple thing you can do today. Partner with a certified e-waste recycler!

At Symbio, we're proud to divert all of our own and our clients' e-waste to certified responsible recycling centers throughout the US.

The result? Less harm to people, less pollution in our environment, & a better world for everyone!

Hmm... This is the question... Are you looking for an IT unicorn? 🦄 Do you hire a full-time IT employee or do you outsource to an IT firm? 🤔

In the past you would have hired one person or two to take care of your organization's IT; nowadays your needs for tech and software have ballooned and it isn't reasonable to expect that one or two people can be experts in everything IT.

By outsourcing your IT to a firm, you're getting access to an entire team of talented technicians all for quite a bit less than if you tried to hire your own.

No need for an in-house unicorn IT tech when you can have an entire team at your disposal...

Food for thought 🙂

Did you know that your non-profit organization could be missing out on donations by not having the right technology setup? It's true! And it's more common than you'd think 😔

From increasing process efficiency to offering donors an option to contribute online, your tech stack has the potential to increase your organization’s impact. Let's be honest, creating a positive impact is your bread and butter, so let's get you some more butter!

Working with the right technology partner that empowers your organization to reach its greatest potential can make all the difference!

Business travel + COVID. Usually dreaded, and often unnecessary, right?

But how can you reduce your dependence on it (aside from a continuous pandemic)?

One way is by having the right IT setup & workflow solutions, which can dramatically boost efficiency while reducing travel to only the most critical needs.

The benefits? 🤔

Greater efficiency combined with less time spent in TSA lines, cars and airplanes, not only lowers your expenses… it also helps the planet as your organization becomes a little more sustainable. That's a WIN-WIN for everyone!

We’ve always believed that it’s the people within an organization that bring it to life.

Values, culture, and ethics all stem from above, but it is the people that take them in and live them every day, whether it’s communicating with colleagues or solving problems for the clients they work with.

So, as a part of our B-Corp assessment, under the Health, Wellness & Safety section, we’re proud and fortunate to offer the people in our organization:

◾ Health benefits to all employees, partners and dependents
◾ Personal/professional coaching
◾ Remote/flex work
◾ Unlimited PTO
◾ 12 weeks paid leave for life-changing events
◾ Health/Fitness reimbursement

Being in the B-Corp community, we always love to chat with fellow do-gooders. We’d love to connect, talk about our experience, and offer any support we can!

Your organization is creating a positive impact on the world (we love that!).

But are you using all of the capabilities of technology to increase that impact? 🤔

Let's find out:
Are you boosting productivity by using apps like Asana or Calendly?
Are you automating workflow with tools like Airtable or Smartsheet?
Are you paperless yet?

These are just a few ways that your organization can streamline its processes, be more efficient, and even save money to use on things that contribute to your mission.

We'd be happy to chat about how we can help make this happen for you!

You turn on your computer, open all of your systems, jump on a video call with the team. It's just so easy.

But I bet you never stop and think "Wow! I can't believe all of the IT work that makes this happen!" (let's be real - nobody thinks that).

It's true! Whether it's keeping your organization safe from cyber attacks, getting set up with the best video call platform to meet your needs, or using software that helps you manage projects as a team with ease, there's so much that goes on in the background.

It's all seems to be invisible. Maybe we should call that "invisibil-IT" 😉
