Summary
In this training, Jeremy G. Woods addresses a common pain point for congregations: the struggle to effectively engage first-time visitors after their initial Sunday. He explains that most churches do not suffer from a lack of guests, but rather from a lack of a structured, reliable follow-up process. By leveraging the Automation pillar of the HATT Method, churches can replace sporadic contact with a consistent, automated communication strategy.
