Using a church texting software can help you improve services and event' attendance; follow up with new visitors or even your existing congregation, share important announcements with your community, and collect useful information for upcoming activities. SMS marketing is very low-cost compared to other modern forms of communication, and offers a much higher engagement, with a 98% open rate.
Texting for churches lets you send messages to your entire congregation! Just collect their phone numbers using text keywords, then send engaging messages like prayer requests, community updates, ministry information, and event updates. Even better, landline texting lets you have two-way conversations with congregants using the phone number you already own.
Churches need donations to keep programs funded throughout the year, and texting for churches is a great way to get them. It gives donors a simple process where they can make a donation to your organization and move on. Announce the program during your services for maximum exposure, and send a text with a link to your church's donation page for increased engagement.
Text reminders can be programmed to let people know about upcoming events a few days in advance, or even during the same day of the event. Trumpia's church texting software allows you to send real time updates on location, time, and even cancellations. You can also use text reminders to better organize your staff, improving internal communication and making every activity organized by your church smoother; which is something your congregation will definitely appreciate!
You can automatically schedule messages to your congregation on what's coming up and encourage them to attend. It could be a service with an unusual time, like Christmas, or it could be a special event, such as a guest speaker or online service. Sending out text surveys can also help organizers gauge interest and get a general head count.
Things are always subject to change at a moment's notice, and meetings could always be canceled or postponed. Meeting rooms could be changed. A scheduled event could be canceled because of inclement weather. Or, a pastor could be called out of town unexpectedly. Mass texting can alert people and make sure your members are kept up to date.
