Overflow
Are you leaving money on the table? If you’re only accepting cash donations at your church, this could be the case.
Did you know that 90% of wealth is actually in NON-cash assets? When cash is the only giving option, you’re putting a lid on generosity.
Overflow is here to lift that lid, and unlock more ways to give. Overflow is an online software that empowers donors to easily give non-cash assets (such as stock) to churches in minutes, not months.
Why is this important? Well, the average cash donation in the U.S. is just $128, but the average stock donation through Overflow is over $10,000.
The days of giving the church the ‘leftovers’ are behind us. It’s time to empower your donors to give from their “overflow.”
Let’s unlock more giving channels for the Kingdom together. Go to overflow.co/carey to learn how.
ServeHQ
Every church leader knows that having trained and engaged volunteers is essential to successfully accomplishing your mission. But if you’re like most leaders, you also know how tricky it can be to onboard and equip people for your team. What if there were a resource that made it easier?
Well, let me recommend ServeHQ to you.
ServeHQ is simple video training courses that help you equip volunteers and develop leaders. You can create your own training or use their video library. You can even automate next steps to onboard new people.
ServeHQ provides an online learning platform that tracks progress for each person. They include a large library of pre-built courses that include training videos and follow-up quiz questions for church volunteers and leaders in every area of ministry.
ServeHQ also provides simple tools to create your own training without needing special video equipment or software…just your computer and web browser. They also provide basic email and text messaging for team communication, giving you a central place to equip your ministry team and communicate with them.
Their easy-to-use automation tools make onboarding new volunteers and church members fast, easy, and consistent. You can create automatic sequences that enroll learners in online courses, send timed messages, and alert church staff members of follow-up tasks, too.
Check it out at ServeHQ.church.
