I want to introduce to you, Randy Tompkins and his unique and affordable demographic service for churches. Randy has helped numerous churches during his years in the ministry. He provides a great service I think you will be interested in using if you are a pastor or minister of education.
John: Tell me how you see demographics helping the church?
Randy: It is important for church leaders to understand the people
that comprise the ministry area of the church.
Understanding where different segments of people reside, what they like
to read, watch, or do will help the church leaders to be able to craft ministry
opportunities to reach the people in the ministry area.
John: How can a church use demographics?
Randy: Seeing the age, racial, economic, residence
breakdown of the study area will also give valuable information to church
leaders. The information will allow for a comparison between the
ministry area and the church membership.
The old adage is still a true one: people like to connect with people
who are like them.
John: What kind of demographics can your ministry provide?
Randy: Cornerstone Consultants Ministries, LLC will provide
detailed information for any selected area.
The information is based on the 2010 census and is provided by ScanUS
and Experian. There are six different
ways to select a study area: Zip code (one or several joined together), city
limit, county limit, radius from a specific point, turn by turn, or church
membership locations.
John: How will a church receive the information?
Randy: The information
will be presented in a PowerPoint format containing up to 70 slides. The entire PowerPoint can be shown in total,
or selected slides can be lifted out of the presentation and shown in an
abbreviated presentation. Individual
slides can be printed in various publications, i.e. newsletters, bulletins, Sunday
School material, or committee agendas.
Randy: Cost is $50 per study.
A ten year history for a specific church can be done in a PowerPoint
format for an additional cost of $20 per request.
