The new phenomenon of social networking presents a great opportunity for Christian writers to reach millions of people with the Word of God. Recognizing the opportunity, many of you have already begun blogging and writing books to reach people with God’s Word.
Many Christian facebook groups concentrate on getting as many members as possible to sign up. For what? Although they build a membership in the hundreds of thousands, there is often little participation and little or no Christian outreach. These groups miss the power of viral marketing in reaching millions of people. Wouldn’t it be better to be in a smaller group that actually reaches a million people?
Here’s how CW&B and you can use the “Viral Marketing Concept” to reach literally MILLIONS of Christians with the Word of God:
Each month CW&B will publish an e-zine (Proclaim e-Magazine) made up of 8-10 blog submissions by members. CW&B will professionally layout and design the e-zine. When completed the e-zine will be sent to all CW&B members, asking that they forward it to 20 of their friends, and asking those friends to forward it to 20 of their friends… and so on.
Consider ~ if CW&B had 400 members, there would then exist the potential to reach…
400 x 20 = 10,000 x 20 = 200,000 x 20 = 3.2 MILLION! Just an example but, think about the impact just a few bloggers can have on spreading the Gospel.
CW&B welcomes your participation. If you’re a blogger and wish to join, your blog site will be added to a “blog directory” featured on the group’s site. If you don’t blog but would like to submit articles, you are invited to do so. And if you would simply like to receive the magazine, but don’t blog and do not want to submit articles ~ but will forward the e-zine to 20 or more friends ~ you are also most welcome to join.
We ask that your blog be dedicated to Christian topics that educate, entertain and encourage the reader. It must line up with Scripture or it will have to be removed from the “Groups Blog Directory.”
CW&B will, on occasion, provide information pertaining to marketing, writing and publishing. ALL information will be free and under no circumstances will you be asked to buy anything. EVER!
The mission of CW&B is to reach out to Christians and non-Christians alike with God’s Word and instruction. Along with that concept, we desire to help each CW&B member who shares a similar mission.
There will be no marketing or advertising in the e-zine; No asking for responses; All people who come to the CW&B blog site will have access to your blog address.
We hope you will join our group and further Christ’s work on the earth.
First publication of Proclaim will be in June. Close out for submission of articles is May 10th. Submit via blog site, pdf, or MS Word (see schedule button). We’re looking forward to reading your submissions. In His service and yours.
