Niche Market Marketing Tips

Marketing a Jewish Synagogue

At Gaebler, we've seen what great marketing can do for a small business. But if you own a Jewish synagogue, exceptional marketing may well be the determining factor in your long-term survival and success.

For every Jewish synagogue winner, there multiple Jewish synagogues struggling to survive.

Jewish Synagogue

Concerned about customer loyalty? Producing high quality products isn't enough to lure customers back to your business. With cost concerns becoming more important to buyers, value messaging is rising to the fore as a strategic marketing priority.

Sponsorships

Event and team sponsorships are a proven method for raising the public profile of Jewish synagogues. Successful sponsorships create connections with customers; ineffective ones alienate customers and drain your marketing budget. A strategic sponsorship targets actual Jewish synagogue patrons. To minimize costs and multiply outcomes, consider teaming up with a complementary business to co-sponsor targeted events.

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 Jewish synagogues may be able to increase the impact of their marketing tactics. But on the whole, measurement and evaluation are two of the most powerful weapons in your ROI arsenal. 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, Jewish synagogues often choose to consult with professional marketers for assessment tools and strategic insights.

Make Sure You Have a Good Business Sign

Good signage is a Business 101 concept. Although Jewish synagogues are very different from each other, signage can be used by any Jewish synagogue to communicate the company's value to their customers. Is your sign visible and attractive? Does it reinforce your brand and value proposition? Does your signage invite customers to take the next step or does it simply annoy them? These are the kinds of questions you'll need to ask about both exterior and interior sign elements.

Given the fact that signage in Jewish synagogues has to fulfill a number of special requirements, avoid glossing it over as an afterthought. Make sure you consider important business sign considerations before you invest in a new business sign.
