Church Marketing Without Money
(Filed under: Church Business)Granger Community Church Communications Director Kem Meyer shares eight ways to improve church communications with little or no budget:
- Have conversations. Lots of them.
- Create a style guide.
- Identify your specific audience.
- Document your communication values.
- Outline a strategy.
- Reduce emotional overload.
- Implement an official proofing team and process. (Have we convinced you of the need for proofing yet?)
- Assemble a group of consumer advocates (or secret shoppers).
Kem offers greater detail on each point, including links to complete entries for several points and a few handy downloads.
