Ministry Marketing Mindset Session One (of 8)

From: cforbesoklahoma, 11 months ago



Ministry-marketing coaching empowers ministry teams to achieve their full potential of church-outreach results. It develops the know-how in your ministry team to transform every aspect of your church’s ministry toward better meeting the needs of people. Coaching also enables you to open two-way communication channels that foster greater responsiveness to felt needs in ministry planning. There are five phases of the marketing coaching process: 1. Decide to improve your ministry communications 2. Define your mission 3. Develop your message 4. Deliver your message 5. Do the ministry

SlideShare Link
Who I'd like to meet:

Ministry Leaders who want to apply sound communication principles to church outreach without compromising the message of the gospel.

I have been in ministry since 1989, serving all over the world in ministry situations such as an international missionary, strategy leader, media strategist, and marketplace researcher.

I'd like to meet pastors, ministry staff, church communication directors, graphic artists, web developers, church planters, missionaries, para-church ministry leaders, social marketers, ministry researchers, denominational workers, and believers seeking to impact the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ!

Hey, Chris! Great to hear from you.

Doug is not on My Space, but he does have a facebook account. I only got on My Space because it lets me keep in touch with some of our former students from Oklahoma, who aren't on facebook.

How are things with your family?
