When you read the headline, did you finish the sentence with “State Farm is there” without even really thinking about it?
The TV commercials depict a home owner or car owner in a pinch, and when they utter the motto “and like a good neighbor State Farm is there!” an insurance representative pops on the scene ready to handle the problem they are facing.
The ad appeals to our desire to have peace of mind regarding some of our largest personal investments – home and automobile. It removes a lot of stress knowing that a skilled professional has your back.
We recognized that nonprofit management teams wanted that same kind of peace of mind when it came to their investment in nonprofit accounting systems and donor databases. And that is why we created Extended Value Plans (EVP).
With a JMT EVP you have a knowledgeable support person that you may call or email with a guaranteed response time for your inquiry (based on the plan level you select) – a real, live, experienced JMT professional to help you get your problem solved.
In addition to a veteran resource to help you work through any challenges, the plan provides opportunities for you to proactively address challenges before they become bigger issues. Plan members have access to an annual system review and JMT virtual office hours. You can also take advantage of unlimited access to EVP web training – perfect for refreshing system knowledge or addressing knowledge gaps that may come with employee turnover or the shifting of responsibilities.
And, we offer a variety of discounts on products, services and our annual conference to make enhancing your system and proficiency of the system less strenuous on the budget.
You may sign up for EVP at any time – for a more detailed explanation of the plans click here.
If you have any questions please call us at 1-888-368-2463 and ask for a JMT customer account manager or email us at cam@jmtconsulting.com.
It’s our hope that you will take advantage of this program and when in need find yourself saying “And like a good partner, JMT is there!”

Charter Schools have many challenges in the course of the academic year; worrying about audits and grant reporting shouldn’t be one of them. But if your school relies on spreadsheets to manage grants, or information must be consolidated from multiple school locations, there is a large margin for error – errors that, if severe enough, could lead to a costly audit or worse a loss of funds.
Charter Schools need an accounting solution that can handle the reporting requirements of state and federal funds that it receives. In addition, your Charter School may receive a variety of grants that come with their own set of reporting requirements. If you are a start up, you may be taking advantage of a Charter School Program (CSP) Grant. Other grants or sources of funding may include Special Education Grants to States, E-Rate, Impact Aid and Title 1 Grants to LEAs.
Given the number and complexity of reporting on all funds is why we caution Charter Schools that the selection of accounting software is one of the most crucial decisions your management team will make. We offer a portfolio of leading accounting software solutions so that our clients won’t be shoe-horned into a system that doesn’t fit all of your needs. Some Charter Schools may be better served by cloud-based computing, others may want a hosted solution, or it may make more sense to go with an on premise solution.
Further, we can help you find easily integrated complementary solutions such as fundraising, donor management, and fixed assets to name just a few.
We’d be happy to help you in your selection process.
Would your organization benefit from improved fundraising, marketing, and mission management? The obvious answer is, of course, “Yes!” And the obvious next question is “But how do we do that?”
We might be able to help you answer that question. Please join us Tuesday, September 28, 12:00 – 1:00p ET for:
