Planning first then doing – don’t get in trouble when you don’t have a plan In fundraising, planning is huge – “fail to plan, plan to fail” – what happens when you get stuck in the mud – you have to have some other means to get you out. Make sure to update your cash flow and “don’t just see what happens” Know the FDT and how to use it – cash flow, ppl FMP for year and follow it – know who is doing what (AD? Primary caller?, etc) Pray about the plan, be wiling for the Lord to change the plan Change behavior based on the Cash Flow and FMP and be prepared to change the plan if needed to avoid deficits Don’t make bad decisions because you can’t see around the bend. Change your behavior now if you foresee something Planning is essential! · Add to FD
