So what is Devo in a Box?

Since 1993 the founders of Devo in a Box have successfully run development and marketing functions for dozens of companies, both for profit and not. In 2007 we were seeking a way to extend our expertise and work with a more diverse and in-need collection of organizations, so we began working as independent non-profit consultants and founded OrangeGerbera, Inc. Visit our site at www.orangegerbera.com.

As our client list grew, we noticed an emerging trend among most organizations we worked with. Most were in some state of chaos, be it the result of budget uncertainty, the turn-over of key staff, or a major change in their giving environment for reasons that were out of their control. In each case, we found ourselves recommending or delivering on the same basic steps before any real strategic work could begin.

Devo in a Box began as an attempt to streamline many of these early steps and to give our clients an easy-to-follow set of processes and tools with which to gain visibility into their actual circumstances. With these steps out of the way, we’re better able to support our clients’ strategic needs. We’re currently working to evolve this suite of tools to better encourage and support the strategic elements of running a successful development function and look forward to offering them to non-profit organizations in a concise CD kit form.
