The Complete Church Sound & AV Planning Kit
Measure the sanctuary once. Then the loudspeakers, the console, the wireless, the screen, the stream and the budget the board approves all come from your own numbers, and every Sunday runs from a sheet instead of from memory.
- 32 fill-in worksheets, 127 print pages
- 3 filled-in examples, including a board budget proposal
- Companion spreadsheet and an online buyer guide with 3 priced systems
Replaces the folder of scattered notes, the quote nobody on the board could check, and the Sunday morning scramble.
30-day money-back guarantee. Use it all; if it doesn't help, every dollar back.

Questions
How do I get it?
Pay on the secure Stripe checkout and you land straight on your download page: the full PDF, a ZIP of every sheet as its own printable page, and the companion spreadsheet. Bookmark that page to download again later.
Can we print copies for the whole team?
Yes. Print as many copies as your church uses: a run sheet every Sunday, a cue sheet every service, a rota every term. Share it inside your own team; please do not post it publicly.
What if it is not what we expected?
Use the whole kit. If it does not help, fill in the refund form within 30 days and you get every dollar back. No questions asked. Refund form.
Can the budget proposal go to our board as it is?
That is what it is for. It puts the problem, the options you rejected, every cost that is not equipment and the questions boards ask on two pages, and the filled-in example shows a finished one for a 250 seat church.
Our volunteers are not technical. Will it make sense?
The Start here page picks the four sheets to fill in first, the run sheet and the quick-start card are written for the person alone in the booth, and the calculators on this site fill in the arithmetic.
Does it replace an AV contractor?
No. It makes you a better client: you arrive with measured numbers, an input list and a budget, so quotes are comparable. Electrical work, rigging and flown loudspeakers stay with licensed professionals.
