Is your organization still debating whether its worth having a mobile app or a website? And probably for the following reasons:
- Our organization has finally gotten on board with the idea of being present on mobile
- We’ve finally gotten the funds to build a mobile app, just trying to figure out how now
- We’ve got a mobile website but no one visits it
- Our regular website keeps getting fewer and fewer visits and we need something new
Ok, I get it. That’s a worthy debate. So let’s make it easy to answer:
- If its that your org has gotten on board with being present on mobile, share with them the Mobile Ministry Methodology
- Trying to figure out how to build a mobile app, follow the points about mobile strategy , this guide on how to build an app, or engage some of the services that help you build an app/website quickly
- Getting people to download your app or visit your mobile website is all about discoverability; get that part down and you fix that
- But, just because you need something new doesn’t mean you need mobile app, consider your audience and your options
I get it. Some folks are still debating the mobile question. Hopefully, the items in this post will help you take some posiitve forward steps towards answering the needs of your org, audience, budget, and mission.
