The Calendar Planner is a Smart Buy for Nonprofits in a Tough Economy

(Press Release) – Nov 13, 2008 – Effective immediately, Reel Logix Inc is offering nonprofit clients a 20% discount off The Calendar Planner scheduling software. With roughly a quarter of their sales coming from those looking for nonprofit software, the company felt that this was an appropriate discount to show their gratitude to clients in tough economic times.

"The Calendar Planner scheduling software continues to be extremely well received by churches, schools and government agencies, needing help scheduling events, resources, people and projects," says Reel Logix Inc CEO, Randy McGowan. "The fact that The Calendar Planner scheduling software can stand alone or complement larger more complex systems already in place, is seen as a really significant advantage for larger nonprofits."

One such satisfied nonprofit user of The Calendar Planner calendar software across multiple departments is Green Acres Baptist Church in Texas. When Debbie Fisher, Church Planner, was looking for a way to manage an ever growing list of offerings including worship services, special events like weddings and rehearsals or classes, she discovered The Calendar Planner scheduling software to help her keep things on track.

In any given week Fisher coordinates more than 50 recurring events. In addition, monthly or less frequent and irregularly scheduled events like missions, leisure trips or concerts add extra scheduling challenges. "We've been using The Calendar Planner for our yearly planning calendar where I take all our ministry events and compile them into one planning calendar. We had been looking for a program to switch to and TCP fits the bill just right," says Fisher.

Another nonprofit client is Scripps Health in San Diego. "I am enjoying working with The Calendar Planner. It took me quite a while to find something as flexible and cost effective. It is much faster and more flexible; easier to update and make changes to or add/delete events," says Kevin Marty.
