That sounds great, but we need baby steps.
Introduce the idea. Send some inspirations to decision-makers today, then closer to the planning stage.
Pull together assets this year.
Understand traffic flow.
Start with a smaller audience feature (program-specific supporters).
Think about a 2-year transition plan. Print this year, next year digital?
