Sowen

Sowen successfully provided analytics and consulting services for a philanthropic nonprofit civic consulting firm. The company's goal was to assist cities in making strategic use of data to improve the quality of life for residents. Sowen's role was pivotal in developing strategies and providing consulting services across various areas, starting from tourism. The firm's ability to simplify complex problems and theories for easy understanding was highly appreciated. The company's chief of staff praised Sowen's dedication, effort, and genuine concern, which added tremendous value to their work.

In a project for the City of Houston mayor’s office, Sowen was tasked to uplift specific communities as part of a plan to ensure equity in the fourth largest city in the country. The company structured, organized, and put together a plan with timelines and stages for the ideas to be accomplished. They engaged leadership and secured their buy-in for the process. Sowen's work included conducting workshops and walking the team through them, creating a sustainable model for the city office. The project lasted from January 2018 to November 2020.

Sowen was hired by FREEST, a nonprofit organization that fights human trafficking, to streamline their work, create metrics, refine their mission, vision, and purpose, and develop a funding strategy. The company was chosen for its high ratings, budget-friendly pricing, great culture fit, and aligned company values. Sowen helped refine the nonprofit's mission, values, and purpose, and created a sustainable business model that could define and measure impact. The company's work involved competitive analysis, brainstorming sessions, workshops, and bi-weekly virtual meetings. The project was completed in a few months, efficiently meeting the organization's needs.
