With Easter behind us and summer approaching it is an all too familiar sight of empty seats in the sanctuary. Live streaming has been the defacto method for congregants to get the word when they aren’t able to get to church. While live streaming is great for the viewer, the church typically loses out when it’s donation time.
In low attendance periods such as summer, less donations aren’t helping grow the church. How does a church keep their congregation engaged during these times? One way is with an app. What’s different about an app vs live stream? An app lives on each person’s personal device, you know, that thing everyone has attached to one hand frantically smashing icons with the opposite hand’s finger tips? An app is quickly becoming the best method for churches to keep their congregation engaged at all times. Why? Websites and live streaming are a one-way form of communication. Apps not only reach people where they spend the most time (average of 3+ cumulative hours a day) they are interactive compared to a website. Using push notifications with links to donate dynamically increases giving – even when people aren’t at church. Add content to a push notification and you’ll be amazed at the engagement rate – some churches analytics are showing over 80% - that’s better than in church!
