Find A Niche
And Scratch It - Marketing Your Congregation
Jesus was uniquely adept in the
art of “reading” people. He fit his approach to the precise
needs and interests of the person with whom he was dealing, and he
spoke the cultural language of that individual. In this book, Robert
Perry takes what Jesus and others have done intuitively—niche
marketing—and provides a system for applying those principles in
everyday practice. Convinced that congregations can learn from
the wisdom of secular disciplines and apply that wisdom to
congregational life, without damaging the integrity of the Christian
faith, Perry offers a detailed process for using sound marketing
principles to identify a congregation’s strengths and the needs
of its community, and to develop strategies for effective
ministry. Price is $16.00 + $2.00 shipping. |
