Customer Journey Map Explained
Understanding ministry marketing from a new perspective.
When you are trying to build an effective marketing strategy for your nonprofit or church, you must understand the concept of a customer journey map. Not all marketing fits in the same box. Sometimes you are trying to sell a product, sometimes you are trying to build a brand…and sometimes you are trying to impact people with your ministry or nonprofit. Depending on your goal, the strategy must be built accordingly.
Marketing Journey Map
To get people to become an active member or follower of your ministry or nonprofit, you have to understand that people will need to go on a journey…a step by step journey that takes them on the path towards your desired goal. It is way too big of an ask to get someone to just decide to follow Jesus, or to be a donor of a nonprofit….when they don’t even know if they like you or trust you. Map out a practical way for someone to go from not knowing anything about your organization….all the way to being an active member and follower. There are likely 4-10 steps in-between. Maybe it is watching a video, or downloading a free resource, or signing up for a webinar….there are plenty of strategic ways that you can resource people, and move them along in the journey. Don’t just view marketing as linear, but as a journey.
