Become a Social Media Rockstar with The Social Media Mastery Course

WITH DAVE LAIDLAW

Introducing Social Media Mastery for Catholic Parishes, a complete framework for creating, promoting, and sustaining an engaging social media presence that helps you reach your community.

If I've learned anything in working for the Catholic Church for the last 12 years, it's this:

The Success of your entire ministry depends on building relationships centered on Christ and the Church's teachings.

People only listen to and follow organizations and other people they know, like, and trust regardless of whether it's online or in person.

But here's the problem - it's hard to create a genuine connection with your parishioners online!

Many times parish staff get burnt out by either seeing little results from their efforts, not knowing where to start, or not knowing how to create amazing content.

So how do you connect with your parishioners online and bring them closer to Christ?

With an engaging social media presence.

Hi, My Name is Dave Laidlaw

And I Love Helping Parishes Do Better Online

But reaching parishioners online hasn't always come easily to me. When I started as a Parish Youth Minister almost 12 years ago, and was asked to create a parish Facebook page, I had no idea what to post, or who I should ask to like it. I was flying blind like so many of us are forced to do.

But over the years, I've come to not only enjoy bringing others closer to the Church with social media, but I also rely on it to stay connected with my own Parish like so many others.

In this brand new course, Social Media Mastery for Catholic Parishes, I'll teach you how to create, promote, and sustain a social media presence that engages both your parish and your larger community.

I've created Social Media Mastery for Catholic Parishes because I want to show you everything I've learned, and how you can make social media work for you.

This isn't a course about what worked for me years ago. I will show you exactly what works TODAY for getting great results on social media.
