- A demographics report helps you understand who lives around you: what they enjoy, how the spend their money, what is important to them, what languages they speak.
- A good demographics study will help you understand the personal motivations to the people in your church’s context-from that you can develop strategy.
- A good demographics report will also help you determine what not to do in terms of strategy.
How do you start putting the info together for a demographics report?
- Decide a range to survey: zip code, miles around the church, specific city
- Determine what you want to know about the people around you: what are their concerns, how they spend money, what causes they are motivated to give time and resources toward.
How can a demographics study help you understand your church context?
- It helps you discern motivations of the people around you
- It helps you discover the causes that those in your community care about
- It can help you decide what not to do
- It can provide several options for you to consider as strategic approaches to engage your community.
Thanks Josh!
