Presented by Faigy Gilder

Thursday, August 13, 2026

1:00 – 2:00 pm ET (10:00 – 11:00 am PT)

Learn how to build an AI-powered content planning system that saves time and keeps your content calendar on track.

Jump Starter Workshops are Pass Holder Exclusives. You MUST have an All-Access Pass to attend.

Current Pass Holders, RSVP for these events in this community space. 

Planning content doesn’t have to mean starting from scratch every month.

In this hands-on Jump Starter, you’ll use agentic AI to build a content calendar that helps you plan ahead and stay on track. You’ll start by mapping your content structure in a spreadsheet, then connect it to an automation tool so your calendar can populate automatically.

Rather than spending time organizing your content month after month, you’ll create a repeatable system you can continue using and refining as your communications evolve.

What to have ready:

  • A brand guide, content pillars, personas, or other messaging documentation (whatever you already have)
  • A Google Sheet or Excel spreadsheet to map your content structure
  • A free or trial account with an automation platform such as Zapier, Relay.app, Make, or a similar tool

After this Jump Starter, you’ll walk away with:

  • A mapped content structure in your spreadsheet

  • A working automation that populates your content calendar

  • A repeatable framework you can build on month after month

What is a Jump Starter?

Jump Starters are working sessions from Nonprofit Marketing Guide where you leave with a first draft of a document or tool. Give us an hour and we’ll give you a bit of training, time to discuss important decisions with peers, drafts and templates to start from, and time to work on your very own copy. You’ll leave each Jump Starter with a first draft or game plan you can share with your team and complete on your own.

What Others Have Said about Our Jump Starter Workshops

“I appreciate the interactive component of the Jumpstart workshop. It was valuable having the opportunity to apply what we are learning during the session.
