Make decisions around charity needs
A CRM should support the people and processes behind your mission. Consultancy gives stakeholders a structured way to describe what they need, identify what is working and prioritise changes that are realistic for the organisation.
Turn requirements into an achievable plan
We can help facilitate discussions across departments, document priorities, clarify decisions and build a practical plan for implementation or improvement. This is especially helpful when fundraising, finance, service delivery and operations have different needs from the same database.

MakeITaplan: the antidote to CRM trauma
“Working with Gemma and Noah on our Beacon implementation was a wonderful experience. After a difficult time with our previous CRM, we were nervous, but they guided us thoroughly, led the data migration and built training into it, so we were learning from day one. They were friendly, responsive to our endless questions (sorry!), and considered the needs of our fundraising, finance and programmes teams. Our team now uses Beacon frequently and confidently. I could not recommend them more highly!”
Fantastic web app
“We are delighted with the Web App created by Adrian at MakeITaplan - the project was really well executed and right on brief. Adrian was very easy to work with and understood the various ambitions and constraints of the project. The resulting tool will be so helpful to our staff and beneficiaries. Thanks so much!”
Improve an existing Beacon setup
If your charity already uses Beacon, a focused review can help you assess how records, processes, reports or forms support your work. We can discuss a scoped review and recommendations based on the information your team shares.
Beacon CRM questions, answered
What does a Beacon CRM consultant do?
A Beacon CRM consultant helps a charity translate its goals and workflows into clear requirements, project decisions and practical system improvements. The scope may include discovery, process review, configuration planning, migration coordination or user training.
Can you review a Beacon CRM that is already in use?
Yes. We can discuss a focused review of your current workflows, data or reporting needs and agree a scope for recommendations. The work depends on the access, information and objectives agreed with your organisation.
Can you help us choose how to configure Beacon?
We can help document your requirements, compare possible workflows and coordinate decisions with your team and Beacon. Recommendations depend on your objectives, configuration and the options available in your Beacon account.
Do you only work with charities starting a new Beacon implementation?
No. We can discuss support for charities planning an implementation as well as organisations that already use Beacon and want to review their processes, data or staff training needs.
