​If you’re planning your 2026 banquet, you probably have one of two emotions right now:
​
-
“We’re believing God for a big year.”
-
“Please don’t let this be stressful again.”​
I’ve worked with enough Pregnancy Centers and Maternity Homes to know this:
​
Banquets don’t fail because of lack of passion.
They struggle because of small strategic leaks.
​
So instead of giving you something fluffy, I put together the exact tools I walk through with centers before their event. Nothing fancy. Just what works.

What's Inside
​
✔ Banquet ROI Checklist
This is the same framework I use when I’m helping a center think through their event.
If your board walked through this checklist together, you’d immediately see where money is being protected… and where it might be quietly leaking.
​
✔ Top Giving Mistakes That Quietly Hurt Revenue
Most revenue problems aren’t dramatic.
They’re things like:
• The ask feels rushed
• The program runs long
• Table hosts aren’t clear on their role
• Follow-up gets weak
Small things. Big impact.
​
✔ Run of Show Template
This is a simple program flow that protects giving momentum.
Because awkward transitions cost money.
And dragging the program past 90 minutes costs even more.
