success of numerous films such as The Passion of the
Christ and the Left Behind series, and books like The Prayer of Jabez and Rick Warren´s
best-seller Purpose-Driven Life. The 1st Annual Faith Based
Marketing Summit (www.faithbasedmarketing.com) will explore the role this influential segment of

communicating with the faith based community.
The Summit will explore a variety of topics including:
"¢ Marketing research and how it´s applied to the faith based consumer
"¢ Word of mouth marketing "“ what is it? How do things go viral with this audience?

billboard, etc.) and targeting the faith based demo
"¢ How the faith based community has embraced online marketing and the new media being used to
further segment this audience
"¢ Creative uses of telemarketing "“ what works and what doesn´t
"¢ The applications of public relations for churches, non-profit organizations, movies and books,
and other products "“ both faith based and mainstream
"¢ The "œsoup to nuts" on event marketing "“ when to use it, when to run from it
"¢ Email vs. snail mail "“ current trends and comparisons for the faith-based consumers/donors

"¢ Larry Ross - Billy Graham´s PR representative for the past 20 years

they relate the the faith based community:
"œNever before has a marketing cast of experts been put together to talk so specifically to and
about the faith based community," says Beth Cathey,
President of Renegade Idea Group. "œI absolutely could not believe the response I got from each
of these presenters when I sheepishly called them all
on the phone and explained the vision for the Summit and asked if they´d consider being a part
of such an event. I was blown away by the positive
response they each gave!"
