Why a Marketing Planner?
A marketing planner serves as the roadmap for your church’s outreach efforts. It’s not just about promoting events but strategically aligning your message, values, and vision with the needs of your community. With the right plan in place, you can elevate your church’s visibility, engage with your congregation, and attract newcomers seeking a spiritual home.

It’s about understanding your community’s needs, aligning your messaging with your church’s vision, and promoting the critical “next steps” to impact lives. This video guide walks you through the steps to develop a plan that goes beyond the basics, ensuring that every promotional effort contributes to the overarching goals of your church.
