This is a good overview document and is a great place to start when looking for SROI or evaluation input. Not all of it is specifically dedicated to social enterprise, and REDF's SROI guide (the methodology of which is mentioned in this work) is a more hands-on, template-based place to start. But read this to get an idea of what different organizations are doing for measurement.
