About the Collective

The Support You Need, The Partnership You Deserve

The Support You Need,
The Partnership You Deserve

We’re your operations and project partners, bringing clarity, structure, and momentum to the work that drives your mission forward.

From day one, our founder, Essence Britt-Reid, has been committed to helping organizations overcome complexity and deliver results. What began as a passion for helping creatives without the resources to scale, evolved into a virtual assistant company serving emerging entrepreneurs, and has grown into Cream the Collective—a firm dedicated to supporting mission-driven companies and nonprofits with the operational expertise they need to execute with confidence.

Today, we specialize in project delivery, workflow optimization, and cross-department coordination—ensuring that the initiatives most vital to your growth and impact don’t get lost in silos or stalled in planning. With Cream the Collective, you gain a partner who aligns teams, manages execution, and makes measurable progress possible.

Our Mission

Empowering Organizations to Deliver with Confidence

Empowering Businesses to
Lead with Confidence

Cream the Collective partners with mission-driven companies and nonprofits to eliminate operational roadblocks and bring clarity to complex initiatives. Through strategic collaboration, proven project management, and streamlined systems, we create the foundation for organizations to execute with confidence and resilience.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. We take the time to understand your organization’s goals, challenges, and stakeholders, tailoring our approach to ensure every project we manage, process we optimize, or system we build drives measurable progress.

We believe operational excellence should amplify your mission, not compete with it. Every workflow, roadmap, and collaboration we design is built to help you operate with purpose, align your teams with clarity, and achieve lasting impact within your industry and community.

We Focus On…

Shared Growth

We rise by lifting others. Whether it’s a nonprofit advancing its mission or a corporation scaling its impact, we are committed to growing alongside the organizations we serve. Your success fuels our success.

Operational Excellence

We bring precision, strategy, and thoughtfulness to every initiative. Our commitment to excellence ensures organizations run smarter, teams collaborate seamlessly, and projects are delivered with measurable results.

Adaptability with Purpose

In a world that moves fast, we stay nimble — adapting with intention, clarity, and precision. We embrace change as an opportunity to innovate and strengthen the organizations we support, without losing sight of their core mission.

Simplicity in Execution

We cut through complexity. Our systems, strategies, and solutions are designed to be clear, intuitive, and scalable — so leadership has visibility, teams have alignment, and organizations can focus on growth, not guesswork.

Our Vision

Leading the Way in Organizational Transformation

We envision a future where mission-driven companies and nonprofits have the operational clarity, project leadership, and strategic partnerships they need to execute with confidence. As we grow, our aim is to redefine how organizations deliver on their missions—bridging silos, driving innovation, and setting new standards for efficiency and measurable impact. Our vision is a world where organizations don’t just adapt to challenges but lead through them—building stronger systems, advancing their missions, and creating meaningful change with purpose and precision.
