3 Instant Takeaways

1. You need a media & marketing strategy. A strategy is a plan of action to achieve a desired goal. Don't copy the outcome of other church's strategies, instead figure out what your goal is and decide what elements will best help you accomplish this goal.
2. Define a budget for your project Take time to really consider what your project is going to need. Invest time into creating a realistic budget for your lead pastor or leadership.
3. Strategize your time. Most major projects - like Easter - are recurring. Use each year as an opportunity to tighten up your projected timeline and improve on creating an accurate time estimate. Don't start from scratch every single time.
