Event Promotion Timeline & Checklist


I'm working on materials for my presentation at Mission & Ministry next week...

While I'm at it, I thought I'd share this resource with you.

Have you ever sat down to formulate a plan for promoting an upcoming event and thought...

"Where should I begin?"

Then... you get overwhelmed by all of your options, procrastinate, and end up throwing $30 at Facebook 6 days out from the event?

This timeline & checklist was written to infuse a little more intention and strategy into that process.

You'll see a lot on here. Not all of it applies to every event, of course. But—it's my hope that you print it out, get out your red pen, pick out a few new ideas, cross some stuff off, and be left with a timely, thorough promotional plan.

Questions about anything on the doc? Just reply!

Until next week,

What do I mean when I say "Canva icon"? Well, it's like this: You can change the icon's color freely -- not just changing the shade of the image You can scale it up really large without losing image quality Have you noticed that when you use elements on Canva some of them follow these rules and some do not?...

Here's an idea to build off of YouTube views you're already getting: Do you know how many times I've heard the following from pastors I work with? "Yeah, we put my sermons on YouTube. People will visit church and say they've been watching for a couple weeks before they attend for the first time, so that's been good." So. many. times. This is amazing! What an awesome demonstration of how the internet can be used to remove barriers to an in-person connection (which is, of course, the ultimate...
