What is Social Enterprise Consulting?

"[The application of] inspiration, direct action, creativity, courage, and fortitude to create a new stable equilibrium that benefits society, ultimately on a global scale."

What We Do

Forward Ever produces digital content and social cause media that improves public policy for the underserved. Whether the issue is healthcare, social justice, education or employment, we believe change happens when innovation “upsets the apple cart” and old belief systems give way to new ways of being, thinking, and acting. All of our work can be summed up as “storytelling for social change.”

We use a dashboard of communication tools to help advocacy organizations become better storytellers. Here is the short list of what we produce:

• Directing, writing, and producing advocacy-based micro-documentaries and narrative features for organizations;
• Multi-platform strategic communications for community based organizations, advocates, etc;
• Technical assistance & media literacy workshops/trainings for advocates, organizers, etc.
• Website design and multiplatform social marketing campaigns for organizations;
• Targeted blogs, Op-eds, executive speechwriting, editorial campaigns, etc.
• Policy briefs, research, and web-based communication toolkits for practitioners, policy groups and foundations;
• Web-based tools and multimedia applications/plug-ins for social media optimization;

Transformative leadership must project a robust media that is both reflective and revolutionary. No two organizations are the same nor are their needs. We can create a custom Communication Plan/Social Media Optimization/Digital Video Strategy or other product based on your requirements, policy initiatives, benchmarks, and needs of both online and offline communities.
