COMMUNICATION:  I used to say to my staff, “Not advertising is like winking at a girl in the dark, you may know what you’re doing but nobody else does.”  If you want problems in your organization, fail to communicate. Regardless of how great your plans are there are some things you need to keep in mind about communication if you want it to be successful:

1.  People need to know

2.  People need to know to get it on their calendar

3.  People need to know to let other people know

4.  People want to participate (find a way for them to belong to the event & the event to belong to them – how can they serve in the event)

5.  If it’s an open event, then get the word out – your website (more on websites tomorrow), paper, handouts (small invitation cards - little bigger than a business card) for your congregation, See about getting it placed on your members websites, flyers at your members business or yard signs,

6. Communicate to your internal leaders to communicate
