Open brings the right people together to change the world. We crunch numbers and tell stories in order to create and nurture relationships between charities and the people who support them. Maslow said that if you only have a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail. ThatÍs why Open likes to keep its toolbox well stocked with all kinds of interesting people and channels. Pretty much everything we do starts with the data. In fact, the biggest and most powerful computers at Open arenÍt processing words and pictures. TheyÍre crunching numbers. Then, once we know whatÍs going on, we develop strategies to get us to where we need to be. We model and budget stuff slightly obsessively. Finally, we draw on years of experience to decide what messages, channels, audiences and mechanics are going to get the best results. And while weÍre at it, we test and learn so those results continue to get better.
