Dear Pastor (name of Pastor):
Forming a strategic alliance with the business leaders within your sphere of influence can be the key to explosive and ongoing growth within your church. It can dramatically increase giving and expand the pool of leaders and workers within your ministry. Below are a few reasons why this is true:
• Business owners, independent contractors and professionals make up 10% of your membership.
• This same group typically contains 40% - 50% of the largest contributors to your ministry.
• Many of your deacons, elders, teachers, leaders, and influencers come from this group.
• With our help, your church can become a magnet for new marketplace leaders.
This economy provides an outstanding opportunity to form enduring bonds with those within your congregation and those on the fringe of your ministry who will want to partner with you. Show them your commitment to their success and they will repay your loyalty for years to come.
I am writing this letter to introduce myself and to ask you for a brief 45 minute face-to-face encounter that will mutually benefit both you and the business people in your congregation. I would like to share some ideas that have been helping churches of 500+ in their ministry to marketplace leaders over the past 25 years. I will be calling you soon to request a 45 minute meeting in the next two to three weeks if possible. I can also be reached at the number below. I respect your time and position as a servant of God and look forward to meeting you soon.
Working together for His Kingdom!
Joseph Cutler
