They are busy and in between long for other stuffs, what a pathetic situation, Thanks again for your suggestions here thru different blogs.

Kay Lynn, that's a great question. My suggestion is to start by asking people. Many times we assume older folks won't go to the website and younger don't read the bulletin, but do you know that for sure? If after talking with people you find it is true, perhaps you could help teach the older folks how to use the website? If not, printing content from the website may not be a bad idea. Usually creating content is what takes the most time, finding ways to quickly repurpose content for multiple media can be a win-win.

Our 70- and 80-year-olds read the bulletin… they don't read a website. Vice versa for the 20- and 30-year olds. What about when there is no central place that everyone goes to? Do we print the website and hand it out to the older crowd? 🙂

Wow, that's scary to hear an outside "expert" would recommend that. I say the best frequency to communicate with people is the frequency they want to hear from you. There's no set number. You have to ask your audience & listen to what they say will be helpful to them.

Advice from the hired outside 'expert' was that we need to email everyone on our mailing list every 3 days all month. My reaction was 'you have got to be kidding'. Luckily, someone on the committee had the same reaction. I can't even begin to imagine how many members would tune out if not unsubscribe from ALL church emails by the end of the month if we followed through with that!

G'day Ed,

thanks for helping me communicate more clearly! I've been on the road alot and it's hard to write a blog post on a mobile in a car! You have said it much more clearly than I've said it.

Re-reading my post I'm also noticing my clumsy grammar at work. Too many words!

We are always learning eh?!

Sarah, I'd be really interested to know – how has it helped you?
