Our Process

A Clear Path to Tech Confidence

Your Mission is Too Important For Guesswork

At Maine Growth Advisors, we cut through complexity with a proven 3-step plan to align technology with your goals—no jargon, no overpromises, just results that matter.

Step 2: Design

Step 1: Diagnose

Uncover Hidden Risks and Opportunities

We start by listening. What keeps you up at night? Missed grants? Donor dropout? Staff burnout?
Audit your tech stack to identify:
- Costly inefficiencies (e.g., tools that drain time or budget).
- Security gaps risking donor trust or compliance.
- Missed opportunities to scale or innovate.
Example: A food bank saved $28K/year by retiring unused software and reallocating funds to meal programs.

You’ll leave this phase with:

A plain-English report prioritizing fixes and opportunities.
Clarity on what’s working, what’s broken, and what’s missing.

Build a Custom Plan for Your Mission

We co-create a roadmap focused on your unique goals, like:
- Freeing staff time to launch new programs.
- Securing donor data to protect your reputation.
- Simplifying tools to serve twice as many beneficiaries.
No cookie-cutter solutions—we align every tool and tactic with your budget, team, and mission.

You’ll leave this phase with:

A 12-month action plan with milestones like:
- “Automate grant reporting by Q3.”
- “Launch a donor portal by EOY.”

Budget clarity, including cost-saving redirections to programs.

Step 3: Deliver

Implement Solutions That Grow with You

We don’t just hand off a plan—we partner to make it happen:
- Phase rollouts to avoid disrupting your workflow.
- Training to empower your team (no tech PhD required).
- Ongoing support to adapt as your needs evolve.
Example: A literacy nonprofit scaled to 10 new cities after modernizing volunteer onboarding and impact tracking.
