Skill Sharing Service

Engage talented professionals to improve your outreach.

Here’s how it works

We’ve worked hard to get to know and partner with several of the best designers, marketers, strategists, and thinkers in our fellowship. With all of that talent in one place, we can help you connect with the right person for your task. Fill out the inquire form and we will get to work helping you with your ministry outreach.

How is your social media content strategy looking?

We can help with that too.

What about payment?

We believe people should be paid for their work. We also understand churches have budgets. With your paid membership to Great City Network you have access to 5 hours of Skill Sharing each month. Beyond that, we will scope out and price the projects at a competitive rate. In some cases you’ll be working directly with our Network staff, in others a freelancer from our pool will be on the project.

Don’t have a good system for stewarding the talent in your pews?

Yep. That too.

What exactly is offered?

  • Graphic Design & Layout

    Collaborate with a professional designer who understands the technical and faith aspects of the work. Whether it’s a fresh logo design or postcards for your next outreach campaign, we can make it sharp.

  • Audio Engineering

    Does your church have a podcast? We can help you edit, upload and manage a professionally produced audio outreach. Or, do you need some music mixed and mastered? We can do that too.

  • Brand Story Framework

    What is the emotional quality your ministry exudes? How do you want people to feel when they interact with your church?
    These are the questions of Brand Story work. Our team is well versed in designing frameworks to help you write content for all platforms and situations.

  • Member Assimilation Process

    Moving your people through an intentional series of steps to help them mature as Christians is one of the primary goals. Isn’t it?
    We can help set up and automate many parts of this process. It’s important and requires attention.

  • Marketing Automation

    How much time do you spent managing social media, email, the website, and other parts of your digital presence? What if you could cut it in half? Let’s take a look at it together.

  • Overall Marketing Strategy

    We don’t believe Marketing is a dirty word for a church to use. In fact, it’s crucial. Our team has experience in the realm of church, NPO, small business, and global marketing. Let’s lay down a realistic and effective strategy to reach into your community.

Have something else in mind?

Not to brag, but we’re pretty well connected. If you have some type of a creative or operations project you’re hoping to get help with, talk to us. Chances are, we know someone who could do it. We have video experts, social media pros, email specialists, artists, songwriters, printmakers, operations designers, dispersed worship pioneers, and many more connections.

We built this service to leverage the talented people sitting in our pews around North America.
