What is Collaborative Industries and how did it come to be?Collaborative Industries was founded on the simple premise that the collective strengths and experiences of talented individuals, organizations and leaders all working in a collaborative environment, would produce consistently high quality results for our clients. In the age of limited resources and higher expectations, creativity and shared costs provide tremendous value. Collaborative’s structure and service model allow for the small to midsize organization to increase productivity, customer satisfaction and oversight while maintaining focus on their mission and goals.

What does it cost to contract with Collaborative Industries?Collaborative’s fee policy is a good example of our straightforward, transparent approach. Collaborative Industries is different than most management companies in that it does not believe in creating “profit centers” to embed in its contracts. Many management companies try to make their profit by tagging certain costs and inflating them. Collaborative bases its management fee on the revenue of the client and charges a percentage of revenue or flat cost as a management fee. This speaks volumes about our confidence in our ability to support the client’s development and revenue growth. For start up organizations or small businesses, this fee is negotiable until the organization can financially sustain the management fee. This approach allows us to work with any size budget and still support new or small organizations without significant upfront management budgets.
