Switched-On Consulting
Assists social enterprises to improve their business models so they can continue to employ and empower disadvantaged members of the community.
Project Overview
Switched-on Consulting (SOC) drives societal change through assisting social enterprises to run a sustainable business model, allowing them to increase their capacity to better empower disadvantaged members of the community.
The SOE team provides business-consulting services to non-profit organisations, many of who often struggle with the business aspects of their initiatives.
Various areas of business operations are covered including financial record keeping, pricing, budgeting, inventory management and marketing. The goal of this project is to improve existing business practices, boost competitiveness, and ultimately, ensure the long-term viability of the social enterprises.
