The time has finally arrived!
On January 6, 2014, Next Stage Consulting formally takes flight as a new strategy and implementation firm based in Charlotte, North Carolina and serving nonprofit organizations throughout the Carolinas. Founded by Managing Director Josh Jacobson, Next Stage Consulting aims to ensure organizations have access to affordable, high-quality consulting services to help them “get to the next level.”
The firm features four primary service lines:
- Fundraising Counsel – Next Stage Consulting builds effective fundraising plans that fit the culture and assets of clients, and helps implement them, leading to bottom line results.
- Grant Writing – From prospect research to outreach planning and proposal submission, Next Stage Consulting is a one-stop resource for all grant development needs.
- Strategic Planning – Next Stage Consulting has a wide range of services to develop strategic plans and seek buy-in, from one-day retreats to multi-month planning efforts.
- Speaking & Facilitation – Whether facilitating or leading one of the firm’s signature presentations, Next Stage Consulting provides engaging services for groups of any size or make-up.
