- Positioning study to determine appropriate objectives, structure, and marketing approaches.
- Development of a plan, including strategies, methods, time lines and assignment of responsibilities.
- Guidance for implementation of the plan, including:

- Estate planning counsel, provided by experienced attorneys and/or financial planners and retained by donors.
If, after initial assessment(s), Resource Development determines your organization is not fully ready to launch and support a planned giving program or that potential for success is limited, staff will develop a report of strategies and benchmarks to guide staff and volunteers toward preparedness for a successful planned giving effort.
