As Chris said, the Premise plugin is pretty good. It's also cheaper than Wishlist and you can use it on multiple sites. Wishlist is also not multisite compatible. Take my opinion with a pinch of salt - I've never used Wishlist!

Talk to me on Twitter @blogjunkieMaybe having employee information on the member area isn't such a good idea for privacy and security issues. Perhaps suggest to the client to separate that into a different application like Highrise by 37 Signals. Then the blog posts and editorial calendar are more straightforward. If you are set on having the employee info on the site, you can secure things by making it SSL. Good luck with the project!

Work: ClickWP WordPress Support, Play: adventures of a blogjunkie. Talk to me on Twitter @blogjunkieHi Amber, I don't envy your position 🙁 I had a look at your site (it's lovely by the way) and it seems someone who would be able to complete your customer intake process should be pretty web savvy.
I've had clients like that as well and the way I try to mitigate the problem is by by saying upfront that they only get a 1 hour Skype consult once their site goes live. Additional coaching will incur my hourly rate. If they protest I point out that other customers only need an hour or sometimes less and that I also provide a series of comprehensive tutorial videos (unfortunately my customers hardly ever use them).
In fact maybe you can send her to my site to view the tutorials - http://clickwp.com/kb-topic/wp101/. She'll need to sign up for a free account because I can't offer the videos for free under the licensing terms.
Good luck with your customer!

Have you seen Bill's tutorial on modifying the grid loop content? He has a function in there that replaces the_content() with the_excerpt().
As for custom CSS classes on each post, you can modify them child_grid_loop_post_class() function here:
