Your season, built for you.
Give it whatever dates you already have, and it puts the donor rhythm, the season marketing timeline, and the event countdowns on one calendar, so you can see where the year collides before it does.
You give it a handful of real dates. The system supplies the rest: every workbook in the three kits recalculates from those anchors, and it all sorts itself by date.
Turn on JavaScript and this builds your season calendar from your dates. The three workbooks are still where you manage the work; this one tells you when everything is going to hit.
Where the collisions are
Your year-end appeal lands in the same weeks as the fall fundraiser follow-up, and your spring ask meetings land inside the gala countdown. Neither is wrong. Both need to be on one page before September.
How to move it
Anchor each event to its real date and let the sixteen-week countdown slide with it. Anchor each production to its opening and let the eight-week ramp slide with it. Every workbook in the three kits recalculates from those anchors.
The one number
Every attendee, every ticket buyer, every sponsor guest goes into the donor pipeline within forty-eight hours, with a stage, an owner, and a next touch. That is the seam where the three kits become one system.
The calendar is the easy half.
You just watched a year land on one desk. This page can tell you when it hits. It cannot tell you who gave last year, who came to the gala and never came back, or who is owed a thank-you by Friday.
That is the forty-eight hour handoff above, and it is the part a spreadsheet quietly stops doing somewhere around the second event.
The CRM I built for it. It runs the same five stages the kit teaches, Identify through Steward, so the ladder you just learned is the one you work in.

This is the bird’s-eye view. The three workbooks are where you manage the work. This one does a single thing: it tells you when everything is going to hit.
