Case Study: School of Slow achieves streamlined admin and online bookings with CiviCRM

A Rapid Solution for a Slow Organisation

School of Slow is a small business offering artisan baking training that needed a website to promote courses and allow customers to select, register and pay online. Managing bookings, payments and participant lists was consuming as much time as delivering courses, so after evaluating options the team chose CiviCRM for its event-management features and easy integration into their Drupal site.

CiviCRM was implemented to provide online event registration and payments, plus membership functions tied to Drupal user roles to control access to a later online course. The solution drastically reduced the owner’s administrative workload, allowed scalable communication via bulk mail and contact management, and was delivered quickly and at low cost — demonstrating CiviCRM’s flexibility beyond its typical not‑for‑profit focus.
