Volunteer for short-term projects. Make a long-term impact.
From Home or Office
To maximize Seed’s impact, we match Seed Transformation Program companies and their leaders with Seed consultants — experienced business professionals — who advise remotely on short-term projects. Whether your strengths are in marketing and operations or in strategy and finance, your expertise can make all the difference.
Matching Needs With Skills
Consultants develop customized and creative business solutions to address STP participants’ specific needs. Once admitted to the Seed consultant program, you’ll be invited to apply on a quarterly basis to one project or more matching your interests and skill sets. Past consulting projects have included:
- Developing a sales strategy for a software product
- Assisting a food and beverage company with financial projections and access to financing
- Creating a communications strategy for a water-bottling company
- Supporting a fast-growing consumer products manufacturer with human resources and other corporate processes
Time Commitment
Depending on your availability as well as project needs, engagements may range from one to six months, with ongoing involvement. Currently, the average time commitment per consultant is several hours a week for three to four months, with email and/or Skype serving as the primary modes of communication.
