OPERATIONS WITH A FUNDRAISER’S EYE

CLIENT WORK.

A few of our favorites

Big teams and small ones. Each had its own hard case and its own way of working.

How an Engagement Runs.

The business side of an engagement should be the easy part. You know when we start, when we finish and what it costs before anything begins, so all of the attention can go to the work.

START AND END

Most engagements run three to six months and we set both dates together. You know what success looks like immediately.

ONe MontHly Fee

The fee is built from the scope we agree on together and review as needed.

RENEWAL BY CHOICE

Our goal is to leave you better than we found you, not to stay forever.

Most change asks a team for more, and most teams are already past capacity. So we start with less, and we write about why that is the change people can say yes to.

What Every Client Gets.

On the 1st of each month you get a Map like the sample here. It shows what came off your plate, where every piece of work lives and the calls waiting on you.

GETTING STARTED

We put all the proverbial cords on the counter. We look at what you have, what is in the way and what comes out first.

WEEK BY WEEK

The work moves every week. You always know what is with us, what needs you and what is parked with a date.

YOUR MAP

On the 1st of each month you get your Map. It shows what came off your plate and what is next.

WRAPPING UP

We hand it all over.
What we build is yours and it stays yours.
