Answers to common
Outreach Planning questions

  • We live in a culture that highly values entertainment and they expect engaging, uplifting experiences. Audiences are looking for high quality entertainment, and it is increasingly rare to find high quality entertainment that includes a positive message. Providing high-quality entertainment at your ministry event isn’t just a nice touch—it’s essential for leaving a lasting impression. By investing in professional, impactful entertainment, your guests gain inspiration and a deeper connection to your ministry’s mission.

  • When it comes to finding the perfect entertainer for your event, it’s tempting to go with who’s trending. But the best entertainers are not merely interested in advancing their own career. They recognize that they are there to serve you and your event goals. Look for an entertainer who prioritizes your event’s purpose and serves your audience, not just the entertainer's ambitions.

  • Event planners often make two big mistakes: 

    1. They chose an entertainer based solely on name recognition rather than alignment of values. It’s sad to say, but I've talked to many planners who told me that they made a mistake with who they last hired and usually it's on the basis of name recognition. The planners hoped the entertainer would provide a show that would not be offensive and they were mistaken. 

    2. The next common mistake is choosing an entertainer purely on the basis of affordability. Reality is, affordable doesn’t always mean effective. While budgeting is crucial, don’t let cost be the sole deciding factor when planning entertainment. Choosing a performer just because their fee fits your budget can lead to disappointing results. 

    Instead, focus on quality, relevance, and alignment with your values.

  • People usually know when they're coming to a fundraising event that they are going to be asked to invest in the organization or the cause. Providing good entertainment can be a fun surprise. This is especially true when the fundraiser is for a serious or emotionally heavy cause. Entertainment provides comic relief and your guests walk away with the pleasant surprise of not only learning about your cause, but also feeling uplifted and entertained. People are glad they came and donated, while having a fun evening.
