Doing something that matters
We at Tethos had a realization: in our personal lives we were all giving quite a bit to great causes, and yet much of that was kept separate from our business lives. We were always working hard to make money . . . just so we could later give it away. In looking deeper, we saw that this methodology was inefficient, less fun, and less rewarding than it could be. We wanted to do something that mattered in all aspects of our lives.
Thus, Tethos was born: where doing good is a core principle. Doing good is also great for business. This led us to our 5 core Change Agent programs.
Ethical clients: We’re selective with our choice of clients and only choose to work with organizations and companies who are leading their industry in being socially responsible. Does this mean you have to be a saint. . .or at least a non-profit? No. But if you’re an ethical organization or company that truly cares to make a difference through your message, products or services, then we’re a great fit!
10% Giving: A minimum of 10% of all Tethos project time is dedicated to non-profit causes. Transforming your success and alternatively our success back into something that aids the world is a big part of our win + win + win philosophy. Thus, if you book us on a 100-hour project, then 10+ hours will be donated to a non-profit. Or, if you are a non-profit, help us find an ethical client and we’ll handle your projects!
Tethos Idea Incubator (aka The Thinkubator): With a world-class team that cares about our world, we develop quite a few grand ideas. Perhaps we’re a bit crazy, but we will occasionally post ideas on how to change the world, and/or contact appropriate organizations and share the idea. No obligation. If our ideas can do good, we want them out in the world doing good. All we ask is credit for the initial idea.
Tethos Branding Incubator: Love one of our Thinkubator world-changing ideas? Great! Bring it back to us and we’ll create the branding, messaging, and business plan for you. (Have a great idea that wasn’t ours? Let’s chat and see how we can help you bring it into the world.)
The Tethosphere: By joining our ranks as a client or partner, you’ve entered what we call the Tethosphere. This place is where socially aware organizations help each other and the world. We make and encourage connections between people and organizations that do good, and refer business between all of our partners and clients.
