Usually there is one newcomer per month for every 60 residents. So if the
zip codes you serve
have 6,000 homes, there are probably about 100 new
residents every month...
ready for your welcome and invitation!
These newcomers arrive in three categories,
and you
can compose your invitation so as
to appeal to each:
| Some have no plans
to join any church.
You have a timely opportunity to encourage them to reconsider. |
Some know just what church they will join.
Since their mind is made up you may not change it, but you can let those who settle elsewhere know they are welcome anyway and help form friendly ties. |
Some are undecided!
- probably the great majority of new residents fall into this group and they are your best prospects of all. They intend to go to church, sometime, maybe, but have no clear preference. This is your opportunity to tell them why your church is the right one, and why next Sunday is a good time to start! Before they settle on somewhere else. |
If no special action is taken, perhaps about as many newcomers will find your church as those who leave it when they depart the area. That's the "Do Nothing Option."
But if you take action to invite the newcomers, more will join than leave!
And that's why, over time, your membership will enjoy a net growth.
We can serve any local business or professional in such a way, and the next few pages show how it works, what it costs* and how to request a Free Custom Proposal that will show just what you can expect in your area. Click on "FORWARD" to see those details.

* We want it to cost you as little as possible to find new members, so have designed a way for you to reduce or even eliminate what you spend, in net-cash terms! Of course there's a quid pro quo but as you'll see on these pages your quid is very simple, in return for our rather substantial quo. Look for details under Zero Cost Option.
