ABCS Consulting & Strategy

You’ve arrived

To the place where we design strategies to help you act and communicate with impact.

About

We are here to inspire

Organisations to act with purpose. People to communicate with intention. Everyone to share stories that speak to their identity. Communities to innovate and grow ideas in a way that brings meaningful engagement.

We believe all people and organisations should aim to have an impact on the world, through sustainable strategies, meaningful and innovative products and services and real connection through their communications. 

We’ll guide you a journey to develop your business and communicate it in a way that has a positive impact on all your stakeholders. 

What guides our creation

  • The intention behind the products, words and images that you share. Captured in a strategy that allows you to get what you want using the power of the message. The right message.
  • The questions. Those questions that trigger in you both the urge to define what is it that you want to achieve and the enthusiasm to say it out loud to those you want to hear your message or who can partner with you to make it happen. 
  • The 5W. Laswell’s 5W, with our own adaptation, to meet the needs of the current society, the advancements in technology and communication and the types and depth of human interaction.

Our goal

To help you act and communicate with impact. To build partnerships and products that get you significantly closer to your vision of the world. To design messages that translate your intention through words, images, stories and experiences. And to share those messages to really connect you with those whom you want to impact. 

Our method

Working with you to get a clear picture on how you can get to where you want to go – a strategy for your business, your products, your communications. 

We’ll help you create products and projects which translate your strategy into real impact on your stakeholders. 

 We’ll build with you a message that makes sense for you and for your audience. A message that defines who you are, what you are here to do, what is the value you bring to your stakeholders; a message that is built on a thorough understanding of what you are trying to achieve, who you are speaking to and how you can best get to them.

Building a structure that allows you to make the most of your resources and to know when you’ve reached success.

In other words, designing strategies.

Andreea Bordei – Founder, Business and Communications Strategist, Trainer, Storyteller

My journey 

I cruised the world with curiosity. I studied communication and society. Learnt with and from organisations whose mission I helped fulfill. Observed and analysed the evolution of communications and human interactions. Researched methods to deliver impact and communicate  with intention. Understood the need to ask the right questions. Grasped the importance of building a product following a clear definition of the intention, a structure, a strategy. Built and perfected a model for the entire process of impact creation through meaningful products and communication. Wrote about it. Spoke about it. Shared it. Used it in my work with people, organisations and communities around the world. Then cruised again.

*Andreea trained organisations in over 15 countries in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa on how to act and communicate with impact, through communications strategy, digital and storytelling workshops.
