Internet Steeple
Talking Points…
Q: “Do you have a web site for your church?”
A1: “No. We don’t need one.”
A2: “We had one built,but it became too expensive to have
maintained and updated.”
A3: “A volunteer put one up for us. It isn’t much though. I guess he got too
busy to finish it.”
Which answer would you give?
CWS Consulting has the solution to these common problems and misconceptions.
1. You do need one. In today’s information age, most people rely on the web for answers to all kinds of questions. What movie to go see, what will the weather be like tomorrow, how much do I owe on my credit card and even what church do I want to take my family to. Seekers will either “Google” for themselves to find a web site or after getting a personal invitation from a friend go to the web to see what this church is all about. We are a generation of very discerning people. With all the options out there, it is not enough to be the FIRST Baptist Church in town.
In addition, with the busy live we all lead today; having a dynamic and up to date web site is an extremely useful communication tool for your congregation to know when, where, and how events are happening.
2. Our Internet Steeple product allows you to have CWS designers build you a professional site with a unique and quality look while the content and your staff and volunteers update the information. There is no expensive software to purchase and install. The web site can be updated from any PC with Internet access.
3. A lot of churches run into this problem. The Internet Steeple product was developed from a similar situation that we experienced developing the web site for our churches. Our designers have the knowledge and training to build a site professionally. In fact that is cornerstone of our business. However, we ran into the challenges that are unique to churches. Most churches have a group of volunteers who all have something to contribute to the site pertaining to their different ministries. So we found that either you have one person who is constantly begging for information to put on the web site or they have so much to update on a regular basis that it is over whelming for them to keep up.
Internet Steeple allows each ministry leader to have controlled access to their piece of the site. Each ministry leader can update and change their portion whenever they need to. It is as easy as using a word processor.
