Delivery Sprint & Managed Communications

Communications, kept moving.

Your team has enough to do. We turn your approved updates into clear newsletters, social posts and reusable designs, with a practical digital process behind them. We set it up, run the agreed work and keep improving it. You supply the facts and approve the batch. No new system for your team to learn.

£1,500 setup + £490 for one month of managed delivery during the pilot. Start with a scoped pilot: a planned four-week setup followed, if agreed, by one month of managed delivery. There is no automatic paid continuation. The setup and first delivery month total £1,990. Your proposal confirms the dates and payment terms. Any continuation and its price are agreed separately after the pilot review.

Is this for you?

For established charities and social enterprises with funded work, a busy team and a regular communications job that keeps slipping. You might be launching a service, working with partners or putting the next stage of your strategy into practice. One organisation voice, one approver and an agreed production batch keep the work manageable.

Prioritise. Build. Embed.

  • Prioritise: one 60-minute briefing. Agree the audience, recurring task, source information, up to two publishing channels and what good delivery looks like. You receive a short written scope, responsibilities and approval calendar.
  • Build: prepare the writing examples, reusable design formats and one production workflow for the agreed newsletter and social posts. Use AI or automation where it helps, with human checks. Test using your approved materials and collect one consolidated revision round.
  • Embed: one 60-minute review to confirm inputs, approvals and the first production batch. Tea & Toast operates the agreed process; you do not need to install or manage our production system. Editable delivered materials remain available to you.

The four-week setup starts once the agreed information and access are available. Delayed inputs or approvals mean agreed revised dates, not unchecked publishing. This setup is for the monthly communications job below, not an unlimited digital to-do list.

What we deliver each month

  • One newsletter or email, up to 500 words, using your approved updates.
  • Four social posts, up to 100 words each, with graphics made from the agreed templates.
  • One 30-minute planning conversation and one consolidated revision round.
  • Scheduling or publishing the approved batch on up to two agreed channels where appropriate access is available. The newsletter destination and selected channels are confirmed in your scope.
  • A short delivery review: what went out, what held things up and one practical improvement to the process.

You provide one update pack and one person approves the batch. We prepare and check the work, then publish only after approval. Missing facts, permissions or access are flagged. We do not invent dates, quotes or results. Software costs and any paid tools are identified and agreed before you commit.

See what that could look like

Demonstration only: Oakfield Community Together is fictional. Its strategy is entering its final year, partner updates arrive in different formats and a busy coordinator rewrites everything. The agreed job is one monthly newsletter and four posts from one approved update pack—not a strategy rewrite or merger consultancy.

ILLUSTRATIVE COMMUNICATIONS SAMPLE

A chat. A helping hand.

Our free community drop-in brings local people together for conversation, useful information and help with everyday digital tasks. Ask a question, share an idea or simply spend some time with other people.

Before publishing: confirm the date, time, venue, accessibility information and contact route.

The process would turn those approved facts into a newsletter and four posts covering invitation, practical help, listening and a reminder. Tea & Toast checks the batch; the organisation approves it; we publish on the agreed channels. This is an example of outputs and safeguards, not a live automation, client testimonial or measured saving.

Where a separate proposal makes sense

The boundary is complexity, not the size of your organisation. A large charity can buy one bounded service. A small partnership may need a larger brief.

  • Several brands, partner organisations or separate approval groups.
  • Multiple programmes, audiences or production batches beyond the agreed monthly scope.
  • Website rebuilds, migrations, new integrations or additional automated workflows.
  • Strategy development, consultations, formal policy work, extensive reporting or funded programme delivery.

We scope and price these separately, with outcomes, responsibilities and a full-cost budget. Advertising, daily community management, urgent extra campaigns and unlimited revisions are not included. Organisations without the standard-service budget can discuss a funded or partner-supported programme where one is available; funding is not guaranteed.

Practical AI, without the extra headache

AI supports a defined task, not a promise to do everything. We agree the tools, information handling and quality checks before using it. Confidential or personal information is not sent to a new AI service without an agreed approach. We retain human review and a fallback when automation is unsuitable. No promise of fully autonomous delivery or guaranteed income.

A pilot with a useful decision at the end

We agree the first batch and completion checks before starting. During the pilot we record production and review time, corrections, approval delays and delivery against the scope. Where useful, we compare this with your existing process. At the review, continue, adjust or stop—based on the work and your needs, not a long contract assumed in advance.

What happens after your enquiry?

Tell us what needs to keep moving, who it is for and any deadline. We check fit, arrange a short conversation and send a written scope and price. Work starts only after agreement and the stated payment arrangements. An enquiry is not a booking or a subscription.
