Each day a little brighter

816 New York unites analysis, technology, creative, and people to reveal opportunities and revitalize teams.

Our Services

We spot patterns and solve problems.

We focus and direct established small to mid-sized businesses, community-based organizations (CBOs), and nonprofits struggling with organizational and identity challenges.

Analysis

Data analysis, business intelligence, and predictive analytics are the foundation for system improvement and goal-setting. We use both quantitative and qualitative methods to make customer and market data work harder and smarter for your team.

Technology

We prioritize accessibility and user experience in our technology and online solutions. We set up, organize, and manage integrated, cost-conscious technology frameworks that meet your goals: websites, CRMs, inventory systems, e-commerce, automation software, and dashboards.

Creative

Brand strategy begins with a bold message and powerful visuals. Our process leads you from a logo and a services sheet to a brand story, a sales and communications strategy, a website, and print and digital collateral that truly highlight your objectives and purpose.

People

We guide teams toward improved productivity and internal communications, as well as initialize operational, sales, and outreach cohesion. We mentor leadership and train their teams on how to build and implement SOPs and business process improvements.
