Our Story...
Helping organizations maintain their digital health
In 2015 Haley was hired by a global environmental organization to organize the photo library of one of their chapters. At the time, staff were spending hours sifting through tens of thousands of photos housed on hard drives, internal servers, and cloud storage platforms. And all the while, assets continued to pile up and get lost.
After four months, Haley had organized upwards of 30,000 digital images and created a streamlined digital asset database where staff could search for and download images for inclusion in communication and philanthropy materials. She also created an easy-to-follow management protocol for staff to contribute new photos in the future. The results were immediate: Staff spent significantly less time hunting down long-buried photos and the process of contributing new assets to the database became simpler, more efficient, and consistent.
It became apparent that many organizations faced similar challenges. Haley saw the need for improved digital content management and thoughtfully developed management methodologies as an opportunity to help additional non-profits and nature-focused organizations stay abreast with the ever-evolving digital landscape and allow them to focus more on their important work.
