Jeremy Pooler and Family Promotional Tools
We are excited to be with you and want to help give you the tools to make it a great meeting. Below are some tips on promoting our meeting.
1. Word of mouth- Still the best way to get the news out. Make sure that the meeting is talked about at each service leading up to the event. It’s never to early to start letting people know. Encourage your people to invite everyone they can.
2. Fellow churches- This is a great way to connect with other churches. Call and invite other local churches and any that you are affiliated with and see if they would be willing to help with the meeting. Offer the Church Reserved seating for them if they come as a group. Check to see if your area has a pastoral alliance. That’s always a great place to start connecting with other churches and pastors.
3. Web based marketing- Utilize Facebook, and any other online platforms you have access to. As soon as the event is booked, create an event page on your Facebook account. Another great way to reach people online is through local event pages.
4. Don’t forget these areas, still in some places, the best way to reach people is Radio and newspapers. Most radio and newspapers have local event calendars and will post your event for free.
5. Old school- There are some things that always work. Putting up posters in town gets people’s attention. Create a team of people who will go around town and place the posters in high traffic areas.
Timeline- Most of these things need to be started as soon as possible.
Immediate:
1. As soon as date is booked, create Facebook event.
2. Create a team that will help you get the word out.
