Yesterday’s selling techniques are being reborn as successful marketing strategies for small businesses, perhaps literally. Our professional Christian graphic designer services and Christian web design company can help you get noticed transparently and honestly.

In my father’s (or Grandfather’s) generation, a unique group of men was highly trained and exceptional in completing their mission. They honed their craft to utter perfection. They were pre-owned car salesmen, or it was called back in the day, Used car salesmen.
Whether they were used car lot owners or commissioned salespersons, the end goal was always the same: to extract as much cash as possible from everyone (regardless of ethics) who contacted them. Even today, there are individuals marketing churches who engage in similar unethical practices.
That was then, moving forward
Nowadays, things are very different. Automotive quality has improved significantly, and the traditional Used Car Lot has been replaced with larger corporate salesplexes (I just made that word up). For the most part, the Used Car Salesman has been laid to rest.
Or, has he …..
I’m telling you this because I believe these used car salesmen have had offspring over the years. Although these kids/adults may know nothing about cars, they found another vehicle (pun intended) to make their fortunes- the digital market for small business success or start-ups like website design, to name just one.
This is why it’s very important for a ministry to be equally yoked with its marketing team, like a Christian graphic designer or a Christian web design company.
So, what should you do now?
A Christian web design company will work to bring you a higher standard; you will see that with us. Successful marketing strategies and a Christian graphic designer for small businesses are necessary if you’re starting a new business or it’s still on the drawing board.
The best product/service in the world will fall flat if people never hear about it. Digital / Social marketing today is not just an excellent option; it’s a must-have. Suppose you possess the 3 T’s (time, tools, and talent) for effective website design, Search Engine Optimization, Social Media, Christian graphic design, and other variants. In that case, I suggest you handle the Web Design and SEO research yourself. But, if marketing is not your thing, sometimes you inadvertently do more harm than good.
“As a general rule of thumb, Do what you do best and let others do what they do best for you!” — Bob
In most successful Ministries and businesses, this rule is always valid. At least, I haven’t seen one yet where it wasn’t.
Nobody has the zeal for your company more than you do. The second best option is to partner with someone who has these skills. There are many sources online for help and information to assist you that I recommend you check. I use various sources to get a broad view of where the markets are now and (more importantly) where they are heading. MOZ is a company I recommend you check out. You will find a wealth of info there. Also, there’s SEMrush, and I highly recommend them.
As I said, Web Design and strategic SEO placement are not complex (although highly frustrating and time-consuming if you care and want to do it right ). However, if you want to do it right, be prepared to put aside quality time to fine-tune it and keep abreast of all the newest developments and trends. A realistic time frame is about five hours per week*.
Are there better options?
If neither of these options (do it yourself or get a partner gifted in Christian graphic designer skills) is doable for you, I would like you to consider bringing our company, a Rejected Stone, on board. We would become your behind-the-scenes freelance marketing partner to produce your small business’s most excellent and successful marketing strategies. Of course, we can’t guarantee success; that’s up to you. But our job is to bolster your success as much as possible. We do this by tweaking your web design and SEO to please your customers and Google. This ongoing process is done slowly, steadily, honestly, and sincerely.

Christian graphic designers and a Christian web design company can make a big difference in how your Ministry is presented to the world or your neighborhood.
In Conclusion
Marketing church is not hard work. For me, it is fun; this is what I do. But, it is time-consuming* and can be frustrating. Search engines constantly change their algorithms, and fades come and go. You must stay in touch and be educated on all the new developments.
If marketing is not your thing and you need a caring team, I invite you to contact us. We can do your whole marketing plan, or if you have a marketing question, that’s OK, too. We have Christian graphic designer and other digital marketing professionals available to help.
We offer complete marketing services for your ministry/business needs, such as Christian graphic designer, search engine optimization, social media website design, and specialty items such as Christian web design company. All at fair and reasonable rates.

Next month (Lord willing), I will discuss my faith-based marketing companies and my Christian faith. Does commercial marketing have any relationship with the marketing church or vice-versa? I know some of you have strong views on both sides regarding this topic, and I’d like to share mine.
* After the basic marketing foundation is complete, expect to spend, on average, about five hours per week, keeping it tuned with the search engines latest requirements.
