Marketing Umbrella
-How some see Marketing: Many see Marketing as just another piece of their business, along with Sales and Customer Service.
-How we see Marketing: It facilitates every point of contact an organization has with their clients. Sales, Customer Service, PR, Advertising, Graphic Design, etc. are all under the Marketing Umbrella, as they all effet how people view the organization as a whole. When you have all the elements under the Marketing Umbrella, then you will really have synergy as a company.
Case Studies: It is very important to remember that in our Consulting services, we go so in-depth and personal with churches that we absolutely will not publish all we find out about that church. So all inside information is extremely confidential!
-CCHS: High school startup in an area with no other Christian high schools, but many Christian junior high schools. They spent $150,000 with another marketing firm to develop a marketing campaign, and had only 2 kids interested in their school. They called Artistry wanting a tee shirt created, but Artistry said no, and that they needed a new campaign. We came in, did focus groups and discovered that the kids were the only decision makers for what high school they went to, and CCHS had spent $150,000 on marketing to the parents. We helped them market to the teens and they continued to grow.
-The Gathering: A church wanted to create a new contemporary service for their church to try and get younger members. They had already decided on calling it “The Praise Gathering” until Artistry challenged their idea and pushed them to think of their target audience and how to make it easy for the members to bring new people. Once they decided on “The Gathering” and Artistry launched a full campaign to promote it, their ministry grew exponentially.
-Nexlead:A ministry which provides leadership training materials to students. They used to be called “Top Flight Leadership” but when Artistry came in, we challenged them to change their name and brand, launched a new campaign. After that, their sales doubled in the first 6 months.
The Hedgehog: Analogy of the Fox and the Hedgehog.
It is the intersection of three things:
-Our passion
-Our best in the world offering
-Our financial engine
Artistry’s Hedgehog: Brand Development- Helping churches effectively communicate themselves in everything they do. “The essence of Branding is communicating the essence of who you are in everything you do.”
Pillars (Refer to Pillars Document for full descriptions). Everything we do as a company must exemplify these pillars!
-Exemplary Communication: Always strive to over-communicate everything to clients at all times. Never even give them the need to call and ask us questions on timelines, etc.
-Ambiance of inspiring professionalism: Every encounter with clients should be one of professionalism. This includes personal interactions, phone calls, emails, etc. as well as in all products we deliver.
-Truth: Truthfulness is imperative when dealing with our clients’ actual needs. We desire to serve them in the best, most efficient way possible, and we want to cater to the actual need, not the perceived need. Many times the truth is needed, but in a tactful and gentle way.
-Pace-setting: Our heart is to be on the cutting edge in everything we do. Our designs, consulting, technology, and everything the client might see should show that we are pace-setting.
-Deliberate: We should always know where we are, where we are going, and how we will get there. We must be the ones to set the example for churches and organizations who are not commonly deliberate.
