Client stories

In their words.

Leaders from mission-driven organizations on what it’s like to work with SmartMetrix, and what changed when someone started leading their data.

What sets the work apart

“You lead with questions. Many others lead with the promise of answers. In today’s reality, better questions are the currency of adaptation and growth.”

From a note to Amber

What one leader
noticed.

After working together, Tom shared these observations:

People first.

“You love and care about the leaders. People-first. Many of the data-first people I’ve worked with are technically strong but can’t connect with the leaders and cannot translate their real-world needs to data-informed tools.”

Seeing what they can’t see.

“You lead them to see what they can’t see. Your process requires them to understand their approach to ministry and what they expect to happen. For some, it sparks the curiosity you know they need.”

Willing to get uncomfortable.

“While very technically competent (it is a joy to see you dance with Tableau), you are willing to be uncomfortable by trying new applications and approaching the needs. Other data consultants have been unwilling or unable to leave their technical comfort zone.”

What changed

“Before working with SmartMetrix most of our organizational data and trends outside of giving and basic attendance were often simply unknown. Now we have clear, organized, deep, and easily accessible data that provides incredible insights across our ministry systems, helping us drive decision making. This difference is night and day.”

LaurenDigital Director, Liquid Church

“I’ve always valued data, but we had so much data my head was swimming. Amber was able to understand my perspective and close the gap.”

KevinNonprofit CEO

“Amber has a wealth of knowledge, yet is truly a partner who just wants to help leaders reach their goals and callings.”
