- Reflect: What key success stories and important milestones have you had over the last couple of years? Write it, then edit it down until it’s brief and compelling.
- Do you need/have permission from those you might share about?
- Do you plan to make a new MTD presentation book to represent some of the stories? (see Solomon page see instructions)
- Scrub your database
- Add information that you’ve previously forgotten to add
- Check the giving situation of each partner and take up-to-date notes
- Re-sort names. Compile a list in order.
- Update contact information! It can fall out of date so quickly. Do you have an up-to-date email address, phone number, and mailing address for each name on your list? Begin strategies to update them. Consider Reliant’s current data, Facebook, contact through friends, calling churches, etc.
- Write a letter introducing your full-time MTD time to your supporters before it starts
- Update your field worker profile on Reliant.org (see Solomon page instructionssee instructions)
- Have you created a field staff profile card to give out at appointments? (see Solomon instructions to visit Copycat)
