"Most firms hand you a strategy and walk away. We build it, then stay through implementation."

The Simmons Collective closes the gap between advice and execution. We bring enterprise-level strategy to organizations that need experienced support without building every function internally.

Across HR, business, ministry, and social media, our work includes assessment, implementation, ongoing management, and measurable improvement.

How does pricing work?

Engagements are scoped to your organization's specific needs. Pricing depends on scope, size, and practice area, and is discussed during your consultation.

Do you offer ongoing consulting?

Yes. Most engagements are structured as ongoing partnerships rather than one-time projects.

Can you work alongside an existing HR team?

Yes, including organizations preparing to make their first hire and build foundational systems.

Yes. Funeral homes are one of our core industries, with specific attention to staffing, compliance, and operational needs unique to funeral service.

Is Social Media Management only for certain industries?

No. It's available to any client across our practice areas, or as a standalone service.
