Sometimes, the work is just more efficient and more effective when it's performed on site.
For 16 years, I have served churches across North America. From 1995-2003, serving as director of marketing, South Carolina Baptist Convention, I traveled South Carolina, helping churches with communication and outreach strategy within the church, and between church and community. I worked alongside Baptist associations to stimulate annual missions offerings, and improve communication to and among churches. Through Scott Vaughan Communications, I have been on-site with churches from coast-to-coast, Gig Harbor, WA to Fairfax, VA.
How does the on-site Strategic Discovery Experience work?
(1) Select from these possible services / activities:
- Saturday evening / Sunday morning evaluation of connection ministries from the viewpoint of a first-time guest.
- Facilitation of church membership discussion groups assembled to talk about church ministry strengths, communication, and other small- and large-scale issues.
- Greeter, Usher & Hospitality training.
- Staff & Volunteer communication training.
- "Big Event" strategic promotion planning.
- Communication methodology evaluation (everything from the outgoing voice mail message to the Facebook page).
- Meetings with program / ministry staff to evaluate communication.
- Church & Community demographic assessment.
- Brand evaluation and strategic discussions.
- Extensive Church-t0-Community strategy development.
- Professional Website Copy Writing / Editing
(2) Next, we'll work together and build a schedule around your choices, beginning with Saturday evening or Sunday morning, and ending with one day reserved for writing.
(3) When I leave, you will have a complete draft report summarizing our work together with recommendations and guaranteed follow-up assistance. You aren't waiting on me to do something else for you when I get home. When I leave, we've completed our work together. It gets no better than that.
The cost? $680 / day (2 day minimum) plus travel expenses.
