MailChimp

MailChimp has just reorganized and is now offering free accounts up to 1,000 subscribers and 6,000 sent emails per month. They have tools to easily embed a sign-up form into your website so you can start capturing your visitor’s data. You can also import subscribers on the backend and segment your lists into smaller groups.

payitsquare-logo.jpgThis site could really help youth pastors with collecting money for group events, trips or fundraisers. It also gives you the tools to track, organize, and collect payments online. 

crossloop_small.jpgIf you are the “Computer Guy” for your church, you will understand the value of this tool. There have been many times people have called me to come and fix their computer problems. With this tool you basically can take over their computer. Each party downloads and installs this free software. One person will host a session and give the invitee their special session code. When you connect, the invitee will see a screen appear with the hosts screen in view. The invitee will be able to nagivate the computer just as if they are sitting in front of the hosts computer. This tool can save you so much time and gasoline. I recommend every IT department to have this nifty tool.


main_logo.png For those who don’t know what a podcast is, it is basically a recording that is broadcast over the internet and played on a multitude of devices that subscribe to the broadcast site. With a free account, you get your own custom podcast site. You can customize your site however you feel, or just choose from one of over a dozen preset designs. Download their free software, record your podcast, or load your mp3 file into the software, login, publish, and viola! Go to your site immediately to listen to your podcast. Visitors can subscribe to your feed which means whenever you update your site, their feed software is updated.

This is a great way for churches to get the word out about events and emergency announcements, not to mention, put your sermons on this thing! You have unlimited storage and bandwidth. Lastly, the price for all of this is one 10 second very tactful advertising clip added to your podcast. It’s a small price to pay for such a beautiful free service.
