Who We Are
The Big Lil is a woman owned and led, small but tenacious team of founders, builders, and creators passionate about small businesses and nonprofits. We thrive in connecting long-term vision to the day-to-day, and we're ready to get to work building the systems and processes that your organization or business needs to grow.!
We don’t do cookie-cutter consulting work. For each of our clients, we craft a unique response that systematically addresses the challenges and opportunities they are facing. Typically, two or three TBL team members work with each client. We like to pair a systems design expert with an implementation manager to first set you up for success and then get you actively working toward it. This approach provides each of our clients with a diversity of skills and experience while keeping costs down and maintaining consistency of service.
