Promote your youth group with a Digital Photo Frame!

Talked with a fellow youth pastor, Derek Carpenter, of Bluffton, IN on the phone yesterday and he mentioned his latest idea of promoting his youth events to the entire church family.

Derek purchased a digital photo frame for around $100 and will be uploading his latest youth-event photos to the frame and displaying it on the church’s activities board where other ministries are displaying their latest information.

I suggested that Derek also upload MORE than just photographs to the digital frame, but to create some proportionate slides that includes his youth group logo, their meeting times, and anything else that he may have created digitally that would help identify what the slideshow is advertising. I also suggested that he add those created-images multiple times so as to increase the possibility of them showing up in the slideshow.

I love the idea!

Considering WalMart is having an incredible Black Friday deal on 7″ photo frames ($40!), this may be an idea worth considering for many of us!

I actually have 2 7″ digital photo frames hanging up outside my office door. One has pictures from past events, the other plays highlight videos I’ve put together of trips and events. The motion is good for grabbing people’s attention as they walk by, so that’s where I hang other news and info stuff, too.
