How we work

We’re a consulting firm.  And you’re from an organisation of some sort that has found their way here.  And we’re both thinking: So what happens next?

Perhaps you’re launching a new product / website / service (or, you have an awesome proposition but,  for some reason, not enough people are beating a path to your door. )

Perhaps your  company is looking to change the way you recruit and engage your employees,  graduates and talent.

Perhaps you’re worried about your online repuation.

Or perhaps you’ve got the feeling that your organisation just needs to start thinking a bit differently, and that you need external consultants to, you know, shake everything up a bit.

Well firstly, you’re in the right place. When it comes to corporate social networking, social media, search and PR, well the, as Sergey Brin never said, “the difference is we know what we’re doing“.

The first thing we’re going to do is to precisely understand your objectives , in-house capabilities,  risks / opportunities / threats and so on.

Then, like these organisations before you, we’re going to propose to develop you a strategy, which we’re then going to implement (or help you implement).  And then we’re going to make it work.

Our work is broken down into 4 x core areas - consultancy, research, training, managed services:

And most of of work is delivered through our five core functional areas of expertise:

Carve: PR, Corporate Social Networking, Communities, Search

Structure, team

Carve is non-traditional in structure, a wiki-based business if you like  that allows us to assemble expert, specialist teams to deliver scalable, cost-effective solutions - and outstanding results.
Managing Partner in the UK,  Paul Harrison’s profile (www.LinkedIn.com/in/PaulHarrison) has links to Carve consultant profiles, business profile, and more than 25 client recommendations. As you might expect, we maintain sizeable professional and personal networks, and these are at our clients’ disposal.

Reporting

We work with you to identfiy deliverables / KPIs.  Normally, as part of our fees we provide in-depth reporting and social analytics.

Project management / IP / Data

We recommend working with our online project management tool, to which we can provide access to your project team members,  ensuring effective collaboration.

We are happy to sign confidentiality / non-disclosure agreements as required.
