Marketing a church is more then just fancy banner ads, SEO, link building and all of the tactics common with today’s SEO companies. Marketing a church should not become a goal to reach as many people as possible and draw them into the church, it should be about reaching the people you can help. Unless you are a mega church, bringing thousands of people to your church every Sunday is not going to be something you can support, so it becomes very important to reach those who are seeking you.
Church marketing is not a competition of which church can grow the most, or which church will hold the largest amount of members. It is about working together to provide a greater good for the Kingdom of God and the growth of our faith.
If you share these same values in the growth of your church, please contact us today to see if we can help identify marketing needs for your church.

Should the Church Advertise?
Every successful business has a advertising and marketing budget and strategy. Should the Church advertise, or is that just for businesses? Jesus said He was about His Father's business. Gosh, do I need to say anything else? Church is a business, and a very serious one at that. No, not in the natural or traditional sense of being a business like everyone else. A Church's profit does not come in a monetary sense. I know the world who is not in church would like to think otherwise, as they mock and ridicule pastors and bishops and call them greedy for being blessed by God, not knowing how hard of a job it is to be a Pastor. Pastors who are about the business of their Father in Heaven are definitely not in it for the money. Maybe that's hard to understand, but it's true. You see church is a life or death (eternal) business, and people's lives are at stake. So with this being a fact, isn't it important to be able to reach God's audience? Wouldn't it be even more important for a Church to advertise than say, any other business? If souls are the profit, and its God's profit, are we being good stewards with the talent our Master gave us while He was away? Have we taken that talent and turned it into ten, or have we buried it in the church account where it is safe?

Is Outsourcing Your Ministry?s Online Marketing a Sensible Strategy?
In times of economic uncertainty and for ministries and businesses that cannot afford to maintain unnecessary fixed operating costs, outsourcing any non-essential tasks is a significant way of reducing costs whilst maintaining standards. But is outsourcing a good idea for you?
Most ministries are busy enough with their essential daily operations without the issue of their online marketing to deal with. By outsourcing their online marketing, ministries could focus on the things that they are best at and helping others. Doing your own online marketing costs time and money. When you outsource, your ministry gains the high quality and expertise you need without the drain on your current resources.
By outsourcing their online marketing, ministries can cut costs without cutting corners. Outsourcing your online marketing allows you to maintain the same high levels of online presence without the fixed levels of cost. Outsourcing can allow you to reduce your running costs without compromising on what you get from your online marketing.
When you outsource your online marketing, you can respond to the changing demands of your marketing strategy without the implications of increasing or decreasing your staff. Outsourcing is the perfect way of expanding or reducing your online marketing output without long-term costs. When you outsource, you only pay for what you need now. This cuts down on the costly business of advertising, recruitment, and additional salaries. Outsourcing provides a flexible online marketing staff, with the same levels of service as your own staff, but without the continued commitment.
Of course, there are reasons that you may be reticent to outsource:
You’re probably thinking your marketing people or a volunteer in the ministry could handle it. But there’s a completely different skill and knowledge set associated with online marketing. Results online come from the application of up to date knowledge in the online marketing sector, if you want results, don’t leave your online marketing to amateurs.
Lastly, you may feel that you could just do it yourself. It’s not a stupid idea, but it could be costly. The time it takes you master AdWords, SEM, Search Engine Optimization – the cost in time to write articles, update your blog, submit your articles, create web content, optimize your site, plus the costs associated with trial and error – it just makes sense to outsource. Get the best, for less.
Outsourcing your online or Internet marketing makes sense. Get all the value of a strong online presence combined with the flexibility to respond to fluctuations in demand. Get the service standards of excellence you require without the fixed costs.

Produce what matters most to you
If we've learned anything from this recession it is don't follow the crowd, lead it. Everything about you is original, so be an originator and a producer of things that you care about. Initiate your own social network based on your conviction. You'll be surprised who will support you. (Read Gen 1:28)
