Placemat · One-pager
One page. One story.
The deliverable that gets faxed, printed, forwarded, and screenshot. It has to read at a glance and hold up under scrutiny. Below is a working example for the same grant program shown in the dashboard, condensed to a single sheet.

Key finding for Year 3
Year 3 closes on plan, with broad reach across all six sites and 92% of milestones met on schedule. Four projects need program-officer attention entering Year 4: two with milestone slippage despite normal spend, one materially behind on spend, and one ahead of schedule that may seek a no-cost extension. Recommended Y4 actions are listed in the program review packet.
Why a one-pager.
A board doesn't read a 40-slide deck. A reviewer doesn't open the supplement. A funder doesn't dig past the cover letter. The one-pager is the artifact that has to do the work in those moments: enough numbers to be defensible, enough story to be repeatable, enough structure to print without falling apart.
We build these for grant reports, board updates, conference handouts, and sales-room leave-behinds. The format is opinionated, the production is fast, and the result reads as well at month 6 as it did the day it was printed.
