If small churches should use small technology, should big churches use big technology?
Church Marketing Sucks made an excellent point today that just because you’re a small church and light on cash doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to use technology to your advantage. There are a ton of free tools out there to help you run your web site and online marketing campaigns. I think though, that the question should also be asked; do big churches use expensive technology just because they have the money, or do the pay-for software tools actually work better than their open source counterparts? I’m not convinced.
I’d like to see a poll on how many big churches (over 500 members) are using technology and whether or not free variants are as or more than helpful than paid for software options.
