Utilizing Google Ad Grants for Church Outreach with Molly Pelic Ep3.04

Tech In Church Podcast

The digital landscape can be intimidating, especially for church leaders and communicators who are new to the world of online marketing
One powerful tool at their disposal is Google Ad Grants, a program that offers free advertising to eligible nonprofit organizations, including churches.
Essentially, it functions like a gift card for Google Ads, providing a substantial monthly advertising budget of $10,000. This budget renews each month, contingent on maintaining an active account. With this grant, churches can effectively utilize Google Ads to promote their ministries and events, connecting with a wider audience and spreading their message effectively.
Our special guest, Molly Pelic, from Church Marketing University (CMU), sheds light on this incredible opportunity that many churches may not even know exists. Molly Pelic is an expert in church growth strategies and has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to leveraging technology for ministry purposes.
We discuss a multitude of valuable insights, including how churches can employ search ads, strategically select keywords, and create custom ads to appear at the top of search results. Imagine the possibilities of reaching out to a wider audience, attracting new visitors actively searching for your ministries and events.
So don't miss out! Tune in, embrace your tech-savviness, and continue the incredible work you do for your church!
