Struggling to tell your nonprofit’s impact story?
What’s that costing your organization?
Missed funding, decreased dollars, lost attention - they all add up. If you don’t feel like you can clearly show the success of your nonprofit’s work you need thoughtful, qualitative research.
Can you connect your funders directly to your impact?
Hearing authentic stories from those most impacted by your work not only gives you powerful information to know where you need support to invest in your impact, but sharing perspectives and stories can bring your funders closer to understanding how you are making a difference.
Are you strengthening your impact stories with holistic data?
Some of your most meaningful impacts can’t be measured through big data. Shifts in understanding, hopefulness, or power are vital to improving people’s lives and can be measured for use in your grants, development conversations, and communication.
What is the value of your impact to your community?
Clarifying your impact through the eyes of your community completes your impact narrative by aligning your intention with the actual people experiencing it.

I’m Emily Taylor.
I use my analytic and objective qualitative research process to give you the power to tell your impact story from the perspective of your community. My process lets you share your organization’s great value, not just from big data and anecdotes, but from meaningful impacts that are changing the communities you work with so you can build stronger cases to funders.
From people needing housing to nonprofit CEOs or teachers to politicians, hearing people’s perspectives and how their lives have changed is my passion. In a world often centered on divisiveness and assumptions that prevent people from understanding each other, my unique blend of skills and knowledge gives you the tools to define your impact to others.
My experience in consumer research, nonprofit leadership, and human-centered methods means you can rely on me to bring an objective ear and strategic approach to my qualitative research process.
“Two years later, we are still referencing what we learned about engaging our audience from teenyBIG’s work. It’s given us a deeper understanding of them, more so than we’ve ever gotten from surveys and focus groups.”
— Head of Knowledge Management, The Morton Arboretum
Impact stories need to do more than just provide numbers or anecdotes, you need to weave the patterns and meaningful change in a way that makes sense to those who can support your future growth. That’s what I bring to our work!
