Why choose Creatio Primus?

PREPARATION
CP uses proprietary software and advanced research to lay the groundwork before we arrive in your community. We are able to identify individuals with the means, ability, and desire to participate in your mission. Our preliminary work touches social, corporate, philanthropic, and institutional leaders with the potential and desire to partner with you and enhance your mission and bring visibility and vision to your work.

PROFILES
Creating positive group dynamics requires research and an understanding of today’s leaders. You may have some wonderful donors but that may not translate into a successful team player and advisor. Popularity, wealth, and influence, are all powerful attributes but they are not the only reasons to place people on your team. CP takes the guesswork out of the unknown by offering our comprehensive assessments of potential membership and bringing you the right people and chemistry for your board.

PERSISTENCE
Advisory organizations are fluid and growing organisms. They can change for the better if they are nurtured and cared for. CP understands the competing demands on today’s executive directors and we realize that time is not always your ally. CP establishes a continuing education plan and provides training that doesn't end with recruitment.  Our specially designed smart phone app (free with our services) provides constant contact with your members and keeps them informed of meetings, events, minutes and more.

PRUNING
Every advisory group goes through change, difficulties, and experiences highs and lows in its development and success. CP consultants are here to assist you with “pruning and growing” your organization. A good advisory organization has a regular rotation of personnel and actively seeks to bring in new members and renewed energy.  Changing the membership of a board can be an intimidating process. CP helps take the anxiety out that process and bring a positive experience for everyone involved.

Creatio Primus has engineered a way to bring our product to you and in such a manner that your organization benefits immediately from our assistance.
