Targeted Insight to Help You Make Smart, Confident Decisions
Traditional planning and feasibility studies can cost $20,000 or more, take several months to complete, and require extensive staff and volunteer involvement. While those studies can be valuable — especially as a precursor to a major capital campaign — they aren’t always practical or necessary.
While often associated with campaign planning, a Mini Feasibility Study can be used in a variety of strategic ways — to test readiness for a campaign, align leadership around a shared direction, reset donor relationships, or evaluate a new idea before committing significant time and resources.
Whatever the motivation, the goal is the same: to replace assumptions with insight and move forward with greater confidence.
The Mini Feasibility Study is designed for organizations that need clarity now — not a prolonged process.
