D373 Digital Outreach Strategies to help your church go where people in your community are gathered.

At D373 we know you want to be a church that is great at effectively communicating to people outside your walls. In order to do that you need digital outreach strategies and processes your team can use all year long. The problem is most churches don’t have the team or the resources to create these digital plans, which leaves them feeling like they can’t reach people where they are gathering. We be

lieve churches that have a winning digital
outreach strategy are the ones that are more
effectively reaching their communities for the
Gospel. We understand your teams are often balancing far too many plates and struggle to keep up with all the responsibilities that are in front of them. This is why we work with churches all over the country to create digital strategies and equip staff and volunteers to successfully implement these strategies. Our services include social media strategy and management, web site development, guest services evaluation and design, graphic design, and staff coaching.

Most churches don't look at this metric. How are you doing with reaching people outside of your "followers"? Grow your church using Social Media as a tool for accomplishing ministry, rather than using it to promote your ministry. This analysis is for the 28 days leading up to Easter with one of our partner churches. Reaching 70,000 people in 28 days who don't go to or follow your church is INCREDIBLE. 💥 🔥 💥 🔥

We love helping churches crush their goals. This happened for one of our church on Palm Sunday. They were doing a really creative production. Set a goal of 900. Through a collective strategy, planning, and engagement from their people, especially on social platforms, they crushed their goal and had 1600 people show up. They spent $150 for us to run ads for them. That's a pretty solid return on investment!
Your church could be next!

Comms directors are one of the most important positions in a church. And yet, they are also the most underrated or misunderstood, as well.

Most Comms Directors are spinning more plates than you can possibly imagine. They are pumping out social media content, website content, internal design requests, graphic design for the entire church, and weekend slide designs for the sermon series. That’s not even a comprehensive list.

If you have a Comms Director in place, you should value them insanely. They are the unsung heroes of the Church, especially in today’s digital culture.

But do you know the single most difficult thing for them? You may think it’s time management. Nope. You may think it’s the rat race of hitting home run after home run. Not that either. Or maybe you think it’s feeling like they are on an island by themselves with no support. Incorrect. While all of those things may be issues for some, the single most difficult job of a Comms Director is managing the expectations of staff and pastors.

You see, most of the people in that position that we talk to often say that they don’t have the authority to say “No, I can’t do that in that time frame.” Yet, because they feel and experience that, it actually makes their job of doing all of the other things listed above MUCH more difficult.

If they could say no to unreasonable timelines or requests without the fear of getting reprimanded or, worse, fired, they would be able to actually accomplish WAY more on a weekly basis.

So thank them and give them the authority to create margins and boundaries so they can do what they are called to do…serve your church.

And if you are a Comms Director, thank you. Thank you for ALL you do. We know it’s hard. We know there aren’t enough hours in the day to do the things you need to do. Breathe. Get rest. You got this!

And as always, we are here to help if you would like. Or even for a Zoom call to talk about what you struggle with the most. We’re here to support YOU.

HOT TAKE 🔥
Pages vs Groups: We address this topic at least 4-5 times a week with churches around the country. And when every ministry has its own page (disconnected from the umbrella of the church), it creates silos and disconnect. Migrating to Ministry Groups offers a win/win scenario for everyone because you create Cross Generational Influence.

1. It tears down ministry silos.
Think about all the different groups within your church—Students, kids, young adults, seniors, and probably so many more. Cross-generational influence helps break down these walls. When people of all ages work together, everyone benefits. It creates a stronger, more united church.

2. It cultivates unity among all age groups.
Imagine a church where everyone feels connected, regardless of their age. That's what cross-generational influence does. It brings people together, fostering a sense of unity and belonging. When different generations interact, it builds stronger relationships and a more cohesive community.

3. It makes communication for any event much easier.
Planning an event? Cross-generational influence can simplify things. When all age groups are on the same page, communication flows more smoothly. It ensures that everyone knows what's happening and feels included, making events more successful and enjoyable for everyone.

4. It optimizes the algorithms to work in your favor, helping you reach more people in your community.
In today's digital age, reaching more people online is crucial. By embracing cross-generational influence, you're not just connecting within your church but also extending your reach in the community. It boosts your online presence, making it easier to spread your message and engage with more people.

Cross-generational influence helps different generations learn from each other, grow together, and share useful ideas and information. It's about building a church where everyone feels valued and connected, no matter their age.

And it's been dead for a good while...😬

Incoming hot take, and it may be an unpopular Church creative opinion…so buckle up.

Unless you are a big brand, Fortune 500 company, artist, or band…the grid is dead, and I would almost argue it's dead for them as well, but "only mostly dead".

This will inevitably upset church creatives who value the aesthetic and beauty of the grid, and I get that. However, for a church— to the people that you are trying to reach, it matters not. In fact, with current algorithms leaning into Discovery “mode”, posts and content have a much longer shelf life, so the need for the grid has decreased significantly. Trust me, I hate to burst that bubble that you are so convinced is needed…but most people are not going to your Instagram profile on the regular (if at all), even if they are seeing and engaging with your content.

It’s time wasted. Focus on good content rather than trying to make your grid pretty and cohesive. That’s manufactured energy that doesn’t need to be expended any longer. 

HOWEVER, if you just want your profile to look pretty, you do you. Just don’t have the expectation that a lot of people will appreciate it the way you do.
