How can Reach Your City help you promote this outreach in our city?
Bringing out ministers and artists to events around the country since 1999, Reach Your City knows the vital pieces to any outreach in any community:
-Commitment from your entire church: It is easy to write off an event as something for just a youth minister to take on, but commitment from the entire church body means casting a wider net and using the talents of many to put on a successful outreach.
-Collaboration with area churches: The impact of area churches working together to reach out to their community is tremendous. It also increases the success with follow up and discipleship of decision makers.
Have a plan: Failing to plan is planning to fail. Don't let your next outreach fall on deaf ears because of poor planning and execution. Coming up with a clear plan and a strategic time line, distributing responsibilities to point people, and clear communication of expectation is a great way to set yourself up for success!
Key Resources Available to You Exclusively From Reach Your City:
Event Handbook: Signing on to bring Reach Your City to you city does not mean having to figure things out on your own. Our years of experience have been compiled into an easy-to-use manual that will walk you through every aspect of bringing any size ministry outreach to your city. Your host will be receiving our Handbook complete with timelines, step-by-step instructions and everything you will need to make this event a success.
Marketing Materials: Everything you could possibly need to let your community know about your event is already professionally created! Your event information is added and only needs to be sent off to the printer! Flyers, bulletin inserts, response cards, tickets, press releases, so much more- it's all ready for you to get out into your city!
Training: For our large events, have a Tour Coordinator come to your town to run training for your event teams. Can you imagine the potential of having hundreds of volunteers trained in areas like counseling? Or having the support in learning to put on a production like this? This training will equip your volunteers from churches throughout your city to do ministry together with the a great impact.
Bring a Reach Your City Representative to your town!
Let our team help you gain support in your community from local churches by bringing a tour representative out to your town to meet with local pastors and support members. Maybe your church is interested, but still has questions. Maybe you're having a hard time getting other ministries on board. We would love to help share the vision and make vital contact with others in your community and it can be a free service to you! Interested? Contact Ryan Melson at ryan@reachyourcity.com
 Facets of Effective Event Promotion:
RESEARCH: Always ask questions, gather information, meet people, learn more about the people you hope to reach.
QUANTITY: Enough has to be done to let all potential attendees know of this event. Many avenues must be pursued to make sure no stone is left unturned. Along with a massive blitz comes....
FREQUENCY & DISTRIBUTION: If you wait until the last six days to promote to the people you hope to reach, it is too late. People plan their "free time" weeks and months ahead. You must give your audience plenty of advance notice.
