Help us figure this out . . .
If you’ve attended one of our seminars then you are familiar with what we offer. We have found that we aren’t doing a very good job promoting our events because what usually happens is that go into an area and have a smaller-than-desired group attend the event. At the end of the seminar we hear many proclaim, “If I had only known … I would have filled this place up.” We’ve even had parents leave the meeting and call their friends, telling them to drop what they are doing and come to the seminar. We know that what we are teaching is valuable and life changing. We know that the fee we charge is nominal and we will scholarship anyone who needs assistance. What we don’t know, apparently, is how to promote the events in such a way that people realize the value of attending the seminar. So, of you have attended in the past, we would love your help in figuring out how to do a better job promoting our events! We love teaching and we are okay with having small audiences, but in order to maximize our time fully and in order to reach more people, it only makes sense that we try and enlarge our audiences. HELP! 
Below are some of the remarks we received from adults who have attended our seminars. The last remark is from the director of a Classical co-op who canceled classes in order to offer the seminar. If you are part of a Classical co-op you may find her remarks pertinent to your group.
---Love what you are doing and you are communicating well. We need more of this worldview training for all Christians who need to be equipped for our culture. Lisa S, VA---------------Eye opening! Makes me want to better prepare my children for the dangers they face. Pam, VA----------Fantastic! We need more of these Ben W. did a great job and I was very impressed with the Bryan College students -- a terrific group. They were helpful, courteous, and I especially like their testimonies and stories. Aaron S, NC----------------This was absolutely fabulous. I am very grateful for your ministry. Thank you for helping equip us (the parents) and the students. This is a gift from the Lord. Teresa H., NC--------------I especially appreciated the students being so open and approachable. They were polite and personable which made the whole encounter very pleasant. The enthusiasm was definitely contagious. Joe & Roslyn C., NC----------------Great information -- enthusiastically presented. I'm so glad you included the elementary group too. Thank you! Linda S., NC--------------Great job! More than met my expectations! Ben and Pat did a great job. I am hungry for more. Brenda J., NC-------------Outstanding program for all ages. I am definitely interested in more of your programs. Dawn B, GA------------------ Pat,I have heard wonderful things from everyone! The deal with home school families is they are so busy that they would probably not attend unless it was on a co-op or class day. We felt it was well worth our while to cancel other classes for the conference. We will probably try to do it again next year if you all are available. If so, we will start earlier in the school year planning it. We will probably do it again on a class day. We felt that it was too important to let the parents have the option of their students attending. They would come up with all kinds of excuses not to attend. One of the dads of a high school student wanted his daughter to attend one of the other conferences you had going. All of the men were very impressed and enjoyed it very much!Melissa, GA
