Nonprofit-Specific Business Planning
If you are starting a nonprofit organization, then you would be better to get a book on nonprofit strategic planning, than a book
on business planning. Nonprofit business plan books are better focused on a particular program or service, than on the entire organization.
A strategic planning book is better for focusing on an entire organization.
by Carter McNamara, published by Authenticity Consulting, LLC.
Nonprofit business planning often is focused on a specific program, rather than on the overall organization.
(Planning focused on the overall organization is usually strategic planning.) There are few books, if any,
that explain how to carefully plan, organize and develop a nonprofit program.
Also, too many books completely separate the highly integrated activities of planning, marketing and evaluating programs.
This book integrates all three into a comprehensive, straightforward approach that anyone can follow in order to
provide high-quality programs with strong appeal to funders. Includes many online forms that can be downloaded.

If you intend your nonprofit business planning to cover the entire organization, then you probably need
strategic planning as much as, if not more than, business planning. This book provides step-by-step guidelines
to customize and facilitate planners to implement the best strategic planning process to suit the particular nature
and needs of their nonprofit. This is one of the few books, if any, that explains how to actually facilitate planning.
Includes many online forms that can be downloaded and used by planners.
