This is HIS Story

The Executive Director and Pastor Guide to Sowing and Reaping Online Givers

What does Ethical Digital Fundraising and Executive Directors and Pastors have in common? A whole lot.

Technology is moving at break neck speeds. So is data collection and thus... access to this information.

Your Web Team and vendors have access to more data than you may can even imagine.

Listen in to learn about choses you may need to make about data available to you and how that effects the way you fundraise.

Leaders at Christian organizations and churches wear many hats and let's face it, they all don't fit perfectly. While focusing on mission, staff, vendors, fundraising, and goals... there is the matter of Digital Strategies. Technology and trends move at breakneck speeds and managing your Christian organization's online efforts can seem like a full-time job. 

Todd Turner has been in your shoes... He spent his life helping Faith Based organizations build solid, ethical, online fundraising strategies that work. Listen in and subscribe to grow your knowledge, increase your ability to lead your digital efforts, and be encouraged as you navigate your organization in the Digital World of ministry and fundraising.

Today's episode is pulled from a Webinar created in 2021 that is SO relevant and needed for Non-Profit Executive Directors and even Executive Pastors: The Section of the Webinar was called "Your Reports are Lying to you!"

It helps eliminate passing data up from those below to the board of directors and having important information ignored. Selling a report that was built to show success not necessarily facts. Stop having needless "Vanity Reporting" laid on your desk and wasting valuable time finding the information you really want.

In a day when data is everywhere... learn how to find... or better yet.. ask for the INFORMATION you need to find if your web efforts are bringing in RIO.

We discuss how to measure online projects and learn to make reporting decisions BEFORE the project starts.

Welcome to This is HIS Story podcast: The Executive Director and Pastor Guide to Reaping and Sowing Online Givers. 

Today's Episode we are discussing the answers to these questions:

Why you don’t have to spend tons to find new donors or keep the ones you have

How the executive teams I work with are winning back 5, 1, even 15+ hours a week for themselves.

Simple methods to align your staff and vendors to row to the same simple goal(s).

How to gain confidence that the ROI of your digital efforts are being used in good stewardship to your board and donors

How to navigate the ever-changing digital landscape, so your organization stands out and excites current donors.

And, how to do all this, while gaining maximum exposure for their organization and funding their God-sized mission.

We discuss a Free Webinar built to answer these questions.

Welcome to This is HIS Story podcast: The Executive Director and Pastor Guide to Sowing and Reaping Online Givers. Most all "help" for digital strategies is aimed at the doers at the keyboard and cellphone but there is not a lot of help out there for those managing an organization's Digital Strategies... from the Executive Director's or Pastors chair. 

I'm Todd Turner, Creative Digital Guide, and I am going to spend Episode 0 telling the genesis of the why, how, and when I help Christian organizations transform their online world into a funnel of New Names and Online Givers. Why do Executive Directors and Pastors need another podcast or tool in their tool belt?
