Campaign Planning
       Do You Find Yourself Asking
  • We’re ready to launch a campaign. But what does that involve?
  • Who is going to do all of the work required in a campaign?
A Capital Campaign Master Plan takes what can be the daunting task of a capital campaign and breaks it down into bite-sized pieces. Generally, a plan will provide strategies, timelines, and estimate the resources that will be needed for a quiet phase, a public phase, and a close down phase.
Campaign Planning Philosophy
Properly planning a capital campaign, and anticipating potential obstacles, is a critical element of a successful capital campaign.

McDonald Schaefer has the experience and know-how to conduct campaign planning and bring your leadership, volunteers and staff together in this common effort. Planning includes:
 
  • Feasibility studies to understand strengths, limitations, and donor potential.
  • Data gathering for a case for support.
  • A case for support that is compelling, urgent, and responsive to the needs of the constituents you serve.
  • Outlining success factors and determining the best time to conduct a campaign.
  • Identifying and recruiting leaders and volunteers who “own” the project.
  • Outlining the structure of the campaign, including the number of gifts needed at each level of the “Campaign Pyramid.”
  • Setting a timeline with performance benchmarks.
