Use your actual workflows in both demos. Test a recurring donor, household relationship, lapsed-donor segment, major-gift prospect, campaign report, acknowledgment sequence, event registration and finance export. Organizations that run memberships or complex events should also model those workflows because Neon packages them as dedicated modules.
