How to Improve Business Marketing
Marketing a Transdenominational Churches Business
At Gaebler, we've seen what great marketing can do for a small business. But if you own a transdenominational church, exceptional marketing may well be the determining factor in your long-term survival and success.
If you're hoping to leverage marketing to give your transdenominational church an edge over the competition you're not alone.
Strategic marketing tactics can help small transdenominational churches stand toe-to-toe with the rest of the market. Though small organizations may not have the marketing budgets of large corporations, the consistent delivery of targeted messaging has a cumulative effect on the market's consciousness.
Staffing Expertise
Assigning responsibility for the execution of a marketing strategy can be more difficult than creating it. For many business owners, in-house staffing is attractive because it can (theoretically) be performed by current employees and can give the owner more control over the process. As a way to improve performance and time management, owners of transdenominational churches enlist the assistance of external marketing professionals. In addition to delivering a better overall outcome, marketing firms bring an objective perspective to your strategy and key messaging.
Geolocational Marketing
Smartphones have added a new wrinkle to small business marketing. Equipped with GPS components, today's smartphones give consumers the ability to perform navigation and other geolocational tasks. Since you're a transdenominational church marketer, smartphone geolocation opens the door to new opportunities in brand and product promotion. Exploiting geolocational capabilities requires sophisticated tools and marketing strategies. There are many ways to influence consumers through mobile GPS. However, in its simplest form, geolocational marketing enables consumers to identify a transdenominational church in their immediate area.
Multichannel Marketing Strategies
Multichannel is an important buzzword in today's marketing circles. Since modern buyers access information about products and services through a broad range of media streams and information outlets, businesses need to communicate through multiple marketing channels.
In today's marketplace, it simply isn't possible for transdenominational churches that funnel the bulk of their resources toward a single marketing channel to maintain a noticeable presence in the marketplace. In practice, multichannel means embracing a mixture of online and offline message pipelines, based on the places your customers go for information. If direct mail is an area that needs to be added to your mix, professional mailing lists from third-party providers are a no-brainer. We recommend contacting a few select list vendors to learn how you can intelligently incorporate mailing lists into a more diverse marketing strategy.
