We Need Better Marketing
Marketing an Armenian Church
Promotional tactics for Armenian churches are exceptionally diverse. But in our experience, there are a handful of tips and strategies that will deliver the best return for your marketing efforts.
A single characteristic divides today's best Armenian churches from companies at the bottom of the food chain.
Strategic marketing tactics can help small Armenian churches scale their visibility with consumers. Though small organizations may not have the marketing budgets of large corporations, the consistent delivery of targeted messaging has a cumulative effect on the market's consciousness.
Measurement & Evaluation
Performance is the ultimate measure of quality. You can improve the quality of your B2B and B2C efforts by considering professional mailing lists provided by established vendors. That's just one of the ways Armenian churches may be able to increase the impact of their marketing tactics. However, there are no substitutes for measurement and evaluation mechanisms. A robust measurement and evaluation process should include metrics that can be monitored on a monthly, weekly or even daily basis. Designed to monitor marketing efforts on a campaign-by-campaign basis, these metrics can be used as a baseline for strategic planning. Simple quantitative tools are a good start. However, Armenian churches often choose to consult with professional marketers for assessment tools and strategic insights.
Marketing Expertise
Don't have a background in marketing? That shouldn't stop you from taking a larger promotional role in your company by educating yourself about today's most effective marketing concepts. Entrepreneurs and leaders of Armenian churches can't afford to invest large sums of money in untested strategies or first-time marketers. When in doubt, tap into either an internal or external knowledge base to design your company's marketing strategy.
Loss Leaders
Smart Armenian churches are willing to sustain a slight loss or breakeven position on certain products and service offerings as a way to attract customers. Although you may lose money on one product, you can make up for it buy selling a higher volume of other products. But to be effective, loss leader marketing requires planning, especially in product selection and price points. For Armenian churches, the real benefits of loss leaders emerge through the careful marketing of other products, usually offered at a much higher margin. Whenever possible, piggyback a loss leader approach with the purchase of bulk merchandise that can be bought at a discount.
