The Covid-19 pandemic has sent a tsunami effect toward churches. Many churches have pivoted and rediscovered a new approach to their outreach. Other churches caved in and closed, as they were unprepared. From live stream services to online giving, the church is seeking answers. Google Ads is one of the absolute best digital outreach channels for churches. Google provides an annual grant of $120,000 to promote the gospel of Jesus. If a Google Grant Ad account is set up and maintained well, it can drive local people searching for Jesus to your church’s website.
However, many churches are challenged with using their grant funds with the Google Grant Adwords account correctly, and Google introduced new compliance rules in 2018 which have led to many churches suspended for under-utilizing their Grants.
So we’re here to help your church. With this course we’ll walk you through the Ad Grant application process (which just changed as of May 2019), the nuances of working with a Grant account, and how to stay Ad Grant policy–compliant (and what to do if you’re suspended).
This course is for churches searching for funding to expand their media outreach. This is for churches looking for an innovative way to evangelize their local community. This course is for churches who are serious about reaching the lost in their local community with the truth and love of Jesus.
