5 Ways Churches Can Utilize Push Notifications


5 Ways Churches Can Utilize Push Notifications

*What is a push notification? A push notification is an instant message sent by you to those who have downloaded your app. This message is similar to a text message in that it is instant and is also character limited to 225.

1.       Increase Volunteer Turnout: By using push notifications you can send reminders and request for help at events. Sending these messages strategically can substantially increase turnout.
2.       Increase Donations: What if you could get 25% of your members to donate an extra $50 per month, would that help? By strategically sending push notifications that urge members to go inside the app and donate to a specific ministry or need, you can significantly increase the amount of donations.
3.       Streamline Updates: As long as they have your app, you can use push notifications to alert members of new information within a few seconds.
4.       Alert Parents: Urgent notifications like trip delays, changes in plans or weather problems can be sent out immediately and simultaneously with push notifications.
5.       Prayer Requests: Allow all your members to get involved in prayer requests or be able to make a request.

These are all things that push notifications can do and help you with and so much more.
