Digital Presence Your lean web setup on Squarespace with Google Domains and Stripe payments signals a strong foundation for optimization. Opportunity: improve site speed, mobile usability, and search visibility, while keeping structured data up to date. Potential services include template refresh, content strategy, analytics setup, security hardening, and optional managed hosting or domain management.
Donation Optimization Stripe is already used for online giving; this is a direct opportunity to boost donations with recurring gifts, fund-specific campaigns, and simplified donor forms. We can help with donor segmentation, campaign analytics, and automated receipts, while integrating with a donor CRM to track engagement and impact.
Managed IT With a 2-10 person team, outsourced IT and security can reduce workload and risk. Propose managed services for backups, updates, uptime monitoring, incident response planning, and PCI-compliant donation processing. This would include security best practices and regular audits.
Engagement Platform Maximize community engagement by extending the Squarespace site with event registrations, volunteer signups, livestream embedding, and email newsletters. Offer automation, social media integration, and analytics to grow attendance, volunteering, and generosity.
Local Market Fit Position Augusta UMC as an affordable, nimble tech partner for small Kentucky congregations. Target similar churches with lean budgets, offering scalable packages and local partnerships to expand reach and fundraising impact while competing with larger, resource-heavy churches.
