Ministry Marketing Videos: Basic Instructions To Promotion
Ministry Marketing Videos: Tips For Christian Promotion And Marketing
Recently I produced some ministry marketing videos to answer questions about ministry marketing online, Christian promotion, and how to earn money on the internet.
These are content packed videos that attempt to answer basic questions I get asked and e-mailed from various people who desire to market their ministry for promotion, and from earnest believers desiring to find ways for provision for their vision.
The bottom line here is helping you harness the power of the internet for your ministry, promotion and profit. One of my passions is to see you free to serve Him. It's not about spamming an opportunity or making up filler material.
Hence, I love to produce ministry marketing videos of valuable content!
The premise of this lies in the following interview I had with Kingdom Trainer, Author and Ministry Expert Ericka Jackson.You can watch this interview by clicking here!
The S-P-E-A-K Ministry Marketing Plan
Part of the premise of this basic marketing plan can be found in an acronym God gave me, for SPEAK.
I got this as I was driving home from Texas after spending the weekend at an internet boot camp at Stephen Pierce's ranch outside of Dallas, Texas.
As I continued to read the Word and ponder the work SPEAK, the Holy Spirit filled in the gaps.
In basic form here it is:
S S stands for specific market. A basic marketing principle where you need to identify your target market or your niche you are trying to reach.
P P stands for precise (and proven!) marketing strategies. The key to ministry marketing,social media, Christian promotion, and provision for your vision is contained by implementing these precise marketing strategies.I cover these basic steps in my book "Six Market Plan Steps To Ministry Marketing". Click here to watch a video covering the features to these steps!
E E stands for excellence. Let everything you do as you work and serve others be with a spirit of excellence! You are a King's kid. You represent a Holy God. Your actions, speech, and spirit in which you serve should reflect your intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.
A A stands for action! You must move and work toward your vision. Many of my ministry marketing videos in the free Ministry Marketing Book Video series will tell you what action to need to take to have a successful marketing plan online! This is putting your faith to work!!
K K stands for kneel. You must humble yourself before the Lord and maintain your relationship with Him. This is a vital key for life! The more I pursue helping others with their businesses or ministries online, the more I realize I need to be a clean vessel. I must remain yielded to God and His Holy Spirit. As I humbly go to Him for wisdom, I am amazed at the revelation God pours out into my life, from personal to my marketing!
SPEAK - The Glue That Holds It All Together!
And yes, this spells SPEAK. The glue that holds this plan together is your speaking words of life over your vision, your ministry, your family, your ministry. As it says Proverbs 18:21: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."
The ministry marketing videos that I have produced over the years go will in detail on this plan, in addition to other basic marketing tips.
Here is an introduction to one of my latest FREE Video series opened for a limited time.
Thank you for the opportunity to share my passion with you!
And yes, I do like to share my content via ministry marketing videos!
Currently I have two major series going on at the same time.

Ministry Marketing: How To Profit Online With Your Vision
How To Profit Online With Your Ministry Marketing
You want to profit online! You read and hear the stories of people who have found the golden key to use the internet to make money for their message, or those who have found provision for their vision online!
So what is the key basic element in your ministry marketing plan to gaining a profit online?
Setting up this one pivotal step with help you on your way for wealth for your pursuit in advancing the Kingdom of God.
This one basic internet marketing step involves you creating a list of people in your target market audience.
This is not just any kind of list.
It's a collection of potential clients, prospects, customers, friends, and people who want to hear from you. You have a message, a product, a service, or an anointing that people want or need more of to help them!
This is the important factor in reference to this list that will help you profit online.
For example, when they see your name in their e-mail, they can't open that e-mail fast enough because they know you share valuable content, that you are encouraging, inspiring, and always helping them solve a problem…or two.
You speak "their language" in reference to what matters to them, what matters to your target market.
Here is a video sharing some examples online in relation to ministry.
Click HERE For More Free Videos In This Ministry Marketing Book Video Series!
So this step is simply this: In exchange for their name and e-mail, you send them something of value in content in the form of a report (pdf), audio, video, or simple e-book that they can download instantly.
I personally prefer to over deliver by giving videos away that explain how to do something in relation to ministry marketing or Kingdom Training. (Like the example above!)
For example, one of my recent video series is based on my book, "Six Market Plan Steps For Ministry Marketing."
So in exchange for a name and e-mail, I deliver not 10 but 15 videos of valuable content that cover the basic steps in ministry marketing online. I desire to help pastors, evangelists, musicians, authors and entrepreneurs harness the power of the internet for preaching, promotion, and yes, profits online! So I continue to periodically e-mail them with more videos or more content they want.
So, you create the valuable content. Then what?
You set up a squeeze page or "opt-in" page, or a form they can fill out on the side of your blog. This is made easy with some great auto-responder e-mail list web services, such as aweber, 1shopping cart, or Monster Follow Up.
The main point here is you ,serving others, with valuable content….and giving it away!
To learn more about this step, check out my book or the free Ministry Marketing Book Video Series.

Ministry Marketing Book: Work Your Vineyard
Provision For Your Vision? Plant A Vineyard!
You may be in a position where you are really looking for provision for your vision. You have a message that you know God has implanted in your heart and you are ready to step up to the plate to deliver it.
You have a message, and to keep that message going forward you need money.
But...you experience the same thing: No phone rings asking you to speak, your bank account remains the same (empty), you seem stuck in the same place, or you have stacks of books, cd, and/or products stacked in your garage waiting to be sold.
What do you do for provision for your vision?
Plant A Vinyard--Tend Your Flock
Plant a vineyard.
"Say what?"
What I have to share is a simple plan you can put into action today.
It's based on 1 Corinthians 9 where God has been speaking volumes to me lately. The more I camp out on that Chapter the more God speaks to me about helping others harness the power of the internet for profits.
That's one of my passions. I desire to see you FREE spiritually, physically, and financially to go in the direction of your God given destiny.
So back to 1 Corinthians Chapter 9. Check out verse 7:
"Who ever goes to war at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who tends a flock and does not drink of the milk of the flock?"
Look at those key words…"goes to war", "plants", "tends".
They involve you (and me) going forward in action. They involve work.
This is what God spoke to me.
He gives us the plan, the vision, the desire that is behind our destiny.
No matter what it is, if it involves you impacting others for Christ, you can count that as being at war! Our adversary the devil would like nothing more than to keep you bound by depression, lack, and procrastination.
But we overcome him by the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony....
It says in 2 Corinthians 10:2-3: "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds..."
He is a squirm bug meant to be under our feet. Don't believe his lies that you will never see real provision for your vision!
So I encourage you to rise up and stick it hard to this slimy opponent!
How?
Make your dream, your vision…make it your vineyard, or your flock.
And work it!
When it comes to the internet, you will have to rise up and learn some new skills or invest in Kingdom training. Use your time and free tools available to learn, to write, to move forward.
Are you waiting for someone to ask you to preach at church?
Start your own video ministry and start preaching into your web cam, on Blog Talk Radio, or at Ustream.
You'd love to write a book?
Make an outline. Write the book. Start writing on a blog….Transcribe your videos…
I think you are getting the ideas here.
Finding a plan for provision for your vision is as simple as you moving forward with the wisdom, anointing, and skills God has given you!
You plant, you tend…..and watch how God can provide the resources.
The glue to hold this vineyard together is found in John Chapter 15. Jesus says He is the vine we are the branches.
"“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away;[a] and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit."
Cling to the vine, Jesus. Trust Him for the wisdom, the time, and the favor.
Start today.
Why wait for the resources when you have something already in your hand, or in your house. (1 Kings 4:1-7
You have gifts and anointing. You have skills and abilities. You have wisdom and revelation.
Begin sharing now. Make it your vineyard. Plant…go to work….and watch God provide for you to continue to have provision for the vision

Ministry Marketing: Are You A Red Or Green Tomato?
Are You Ripe For Your God Given Destiny?
So you’re ready for your God given destiny to be fulfilled. You are ready to go through the door to the fulfillment of all that you know God has called you to in regards to your ministry, your music, your service, or maybe a product such as a book.
And it’s just not happening. What do you do?
Wait. And trust your God given destiny will be a reality soon. And grow where you are planted.
A great example I have found comes from my husband’s garden and a tomato plant.
Are You A Red Or Green Tomato?
After Dave planted the beautiful tomato vines in the rich Georgia soil, I waited with great expectation for the tomatoes to appear. Before long they did, and then it was an another wait process for them to turn red.
The growth process seemed rather slow as I was eager to have a good ‘ole Southern tomato sandwich, complete with Blue Plate Mayo, of course!
While we waited for the tomatoes to turn red, my husband decided to go ahead and fry up some southern specialty “fried green tomatoes”. While they tasted ok, what we really wanted was a ripe red tomato for a sandwich or to slice up in a salad. 
So this got me to thinking about one’s God given destiny in life. You have a vision of what you know God as called you to, and often you have to wait through the process of that vision becoming reality.
You might feel as if you are sitting there...wasting away...as if your dream is dead. It may be because of lack of resources. It may be because of frustration or overwhelm. You may think to your self, “Is there any hope?”
May I encourage you with the tomato plant in our garden?
So, it’s like this. The tomato plant just stands there, in the fertile soil that my husband faithfully waters. When the tomato appears, it stays put clinging to the vine.
The plant stays rooted and grounded in the soil.You are like this tomato plant. You need to cling to the vine...cling to Jesus as you grow.
You need to be rooted and grounded in the Word of God as you go through the process of growing and bearing tomatoes (fruit), allowing the Holy Spirit to strengthen and refresh you.
Now you could go ahead and be a green tomato trying to make your vision happen on your own. You go ahead rushing your God given destiny, and It may get real hot with trials and messes along the way.
Some people may really like you, some may not, just as some people like fried green tomatoes while others do not.
I believe the majority of people like a ripe red tomato!
You are meant to be ripe for your God given destiny. Sometimes that may mean you have to wait and grow. But I encourage you with this simple thought:
Stay clinging to the vine--Jesus. (John 15) Stay rooted deep in God’s word and go through the process of simply growing, being nourished and trained by His Word.
Do you hear a tomato grunting and groaning as it grows?
No!
You don’t either. You don’t have to grunt and groan to be what God has called you to in regards to your vision.
Stay clinging to the vine, stay rooted in the Word. Keep believing in the vision. Be patient with God’s perfect timing...
I love what Oswald Chambers says:
"The vision is not a castle in the air, but a vision of what God wants you to be. Let Him put you on His wheel and whirl you as He likes, and as sure as God is God and you are you, you will turn out exactly in accordance with the vision. Don't lose heart in the process."
Don’t lose heart in the process of being ripe for your destiny!
Help Along The Way To Being Ripe!

The videos range from instruction from the Word to basic instructions on ministry marketing to help you harness the power of the internet for preaching, promotion, and profits.

Video Ministry: Celebrate Freedom
I can think of no better celebration than rejoicing over one'strue freedom through salvation in Jesus.
This holiday brings back a special memory for me concerning myson William. Around this time three years ago, he accepted Jesus into his heart and became a Christian. It was a true celebrate freedom in Jesus Time!
Ever with a camera in my hand, I recorded a video with him sharing a bit about it, and uploaded it to my YouTube account and put it on one of my blogs.
I didn't think much of it.
A few weeks went by when all of a sudden I was getting these e-mails relaying comments on my blog. It was this very blog too by the way.
They were NOT pretty and nice comments.
Without my knowing it, a very agnostic and atheist blog had picked up my YouTube video, put it on their blog, and proceeded to rip me as a Christian. They said some of the ugliest things…that I was brain washing my child and was crazy…That was not the worst of things said…
Before I had shot this video, I had made up my mind….kind of like drawing a line in the sand, saying to myself that I would continue using video online to proclaim Jesus Christ. I had started my own video ministry, Keys To Be Free, about three months before this all out vicious attack.
The Celebrate Freedom Video Of Controversy
I thought about taking the video down…but then…thought…NO!
I had a few people stick up for me and share in the joy of William's moment to celebrate freedom in Christ! But the attacks were more than the hoorays!
It was a pivotal time though. This attack made me all the more committed to study and learn about video and how to produce it FOR MINISTRY!!
Today, I am more passionate than ever to use video to proclaim the goodness of our Lord Jesus. AND I'm committed to help others do the same.
Yes, I want to see YOU harness the power of the internet for preaching….for the Gospel…for your ministry.
I guess this time of the year reminds me how good God has been as I see others use the internet positively to impact others for Christ, as they celebrate their freedom in Him.
My husband and I have had a online digital ministry for over a year at FirebrandMinistry.com…..with visitors all over the world.
So what about you? Has God been tugging on your heart to be brave, be bold, and look into a camera and speak!! …or WRITE….or TEACH…or PREACH…online?
I put up a new series…15 videos….to help those who are ready to go forward in their ministry online…whether it's for video or blogging…or social media or…

The Video Ministry Continues
Above is another video I made of William singing, "Me and God". Whether it was my kids, my husband preaching, or my ministry marketing training, I was going to continue!!
