Three of Our Favorite Things

Three simple things have shaped Omnivore

People

Products come and go.  Good people are hard to find.  Trite, but true.  We value those with whom we work, knowing even if the current idea isn't the one that changes the world, helping the right people will produce great results. 


(Also, if the idea isn't the one that changes the world, at least we know it wasn't because of the wrong people)

Projects

We've all produced too many decks and spreadsheets that ended up going nowhere.  We don't do those anymore.  If you're looking to challenge assumptions, or build a smarter way of doing something that's currently frustrating, that's the stuff we love.   

Purpose

We don't believe in the idea that we can take our limited time to focus only on working, earning, rinsing, repeating.  The old "make the world a better place" stuff is something we strive to do now, not leaving it for tomorrow.  That doesn't make us any less pragmatic about ensuring growth and profitability.  Since sustainability and social conscience weigh on us, we in turn weigh them into our calculus.


Industries and Companies we've seen and touched

We are seasoned to know strategic focus, relationship management, and operational excellence translate across sectors.

  • Financial Services
  • Hospitality
  • Chemicals
  • Healthcare technology
  • Entertainment
  • Insurance
  • Business Process Outsourcing
  • Retail
  • Life Sciences
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Education
  • Manufacturing
  • Hospital and long-term care
  • Agriculture
  • Sports Marketing

Here are some of the brands with which we've been engaged.

Who We Are

We serve as a distributed group of talent.  Professionally we are serial monogamists, staying with something to completion, then moving on when we've set things right or grown them to the point that they're stable.  The relationships among us go back decades.
