Your operations shouldn't depend on one person remembering everything.

ToyBox Consulting & Management builds the systems behind the work: the calendars, checklists, reports and roles that keep an organization running when it gets busy. Since 2008.

Who ToyBox works with

Three kinds of organizations, one kind of problem.

Nonprofits

Boards that want clearer roles, finance reports a board can actually use, and processes that live on paper instead of in someone's head.

Small businesses

Owners who have outgrown "we'll figure it out." Operations, people systems, events and marketing that run on a plan.

Public sector

City and county teams that need a small, experienced firm for communications, community outreach, project management, training and race and social justice work.

Ways to work together

Three ways to work together.

Every one of them starts the same way: a free 30-minute call about the problem in front of you.

01 · Fixed scope

Year-End Operations Tune-Up

Three working sessions in December. ToyBox finds the three gaps costing the most, builds the fixes with your team, and hands you a January plan with an owner and a date for each item.

02 · Retainer or hourly

Fractional or interim COO

An experienced operations lead, part time, for as long as you need one. Fractional when you need steady senior help without a full-time hire. Interim when a seat is empty and the work can't wait.

  • Retainer-based or hourly, scoped to the work after the first call.

03 · Live sessions

Workshops for boards and teams

Never a 60-minute lecture. Two 60-minute sessions (Diagnose, then Design & Commit) or a half day in person.

  • Built around your board or team and the decisions in front of it.
