A recent study of over 1,000 churches across the United States who had recently completed capital campaigns revealed that seemingly subtle differences in the ways various churches approached their campaigns yielded startling and significantly different campaign results. The study was conducted in June-July 2010 by Volkart May & Associates, a Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota based marketing and market research firm.
All Things New
"Towson Presbyterian Church benefited greatly from James D. Klote and Associates' attentive and effective expertise."The congregation had never set such a high goal of ourselves, and it had been fifteen years since our last capital campaign. JDK encouraged us to think outside the box of our expectations and to stretch toward financial targets that could truly be a transformation in our capacity for ministry and mission. Having a JDK&A consultant on site made a big difference in maintaining our focus and helped to leverage the time and talents of church staff and volunteers alike. Throughout the process, JDK&A's sensitivity to our culture and appreciation for the spiritual dimensions of capital stewardship on this scale made them ideal partners.
