			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not all aspects of Internet marketing involves &#8220;rocket science&#8221; knowledge. Let&#8217;s face it, much of what makes up effective marketing for a church or religious organization is just your typical &#8220;roll up you sleeves&#8221; and get to it type of work. The failure is not energy and effort, but the focused knowledge of what needs to be done.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t get me wrong. In some areas, especially in the area of research, you need some additional levels of experience and expertise to do higher level work. I include that statement from experience since I perform a tremendous amount of Internet marketing for businesses throughout the US and Canada. <img src='http://ministrymaven.com/MMaven/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>But getting back to the point, there is a tremendous amount of effective Internet marketing that could be accomplished on behalf of church and religious organizations &#8230; if they had a group of volunteers that were not only informed on what to do, but could grasp a bit of the big picture to see how their contributions fit in.</p>
<p>Producing video training in a LMS &#8220;Learning Media System&#8221; environment might be the perfect training tool since you can go through the initial training segments, be tested for comprehension, interact with a trainer, and review the material for as long as you have access to it. Another option would just be downloadable video training segments.</p>
<p>Internet marketing for churches has some distinct differences from marketing businesses. Having 15 1/2 years in serving 4 churches as a pastor makes that abundantly clear. Tapping into the power of outreach through the Internet for a church is potentially more powerful.</p>
<p>Let me know what you think!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you thought of using eCompliments to put in a &#8220;good word&#8221; regarding your place of worship? Why not then? It is worth taking a few minutes to plug your church if you believe it is meeting your needs, and giving others opportunity to serve.</p>
<p>There is lots of information that you can put on eCompliments. This includes pictures, as well as all the pertinent information to point someone in the right direction.</p>
<p>People who need the encouragement and blessing are using the Internet right now. Meet them where they are, and who knows, you might meet them in the lobby some day.</p>
