When you're busy writing grants for clients, marketing your own business is the first thing that gets pushed to next week… until your client roster clears out.
You spend 60+ hours a week heads-down in NOFOs and budgets. Friday arrives and you have zero bandwidth to market yourself.
Chaotic proposal rushes alternate with quiet stretches where you scramble for the next paying nonprofit client.
You know you should post, follow up, or build a list — but freeze because you don't know the next specific action.
300-page courses sit unused because you don't have 5 hours a week to rebuild your entire strategy.
What if all it took was 20 minutes every Friday before you close your laptop to secure one high-impact business win?
Organized into 4 strategic quarters so you know exactly what action to take every Friday.
Weeks 1–13
Clarify your Who I Help message, build a living CRM of 10+ leads, makeover your email signature, and send your first outreach 5-pack.
Weeks 14–26
Build a 1-page lead magnet, automate a welcome sequence, gather testimonials, and post your Top 5 Funding Mistakes.
Weeks 27–39
Host a pop-up webinar, pitch paid grant readiness audits, launch a VIP strategy session, and automate client onboarding.
Weeks 40–52
Package a year-end mini offer, publish case studies, run a Book Q1 Now campaign, and re-engage cold leads.
Print Page 1 and stick it on your wall. Check off each Friday win and watch momentum build week by week.
