Here are just a few ideas to create "Wow" factors:
- Parking lot attendants who greet guests, help them with umbrellas if it is raining, assist the elderly, special parking for expecting moms and first time guests
- All first time guest receive a personal note from the lead Pastor and a $5 gift card to Dunkin Donuts and a follow up call from a staff member
- Provide clear internal signage in the lobby for guests
- Greeters at all doors welcoming guests into the facility
- Hosts in the lobby attentive to needs of first time guest who "look lost" or others that may need assistance
- Volunteer central / Information Kiosk staffed with a friendly volunteer who can answer questions and provide direction
- Upbeat music in the lobby and parking lot for guests as they arrive
- Exciting children programs with activities such as: multimedia, story telling, bounce houses, games, crafts and more
- Uplifting music to begin the adult service with multimedia
- Practical teaching with life applicable points
These are just a few ideas. If you are not in the ministry, perhaps you can think of creating some "wow" factors in your own home or at work.
