Tier 1

Everything and all of us

What is Tier 1?

Our Tier1 level of service is the most comprehensive that we offer. With this level you will have access to everything we do and everyone on our team of professionals. We will work tirelessly to reach your community for Christ. We consider ourselves part of your staff team. We will pray each week for your church and the people that God has entrusted to you. Because of the intensity of this marketing plan, we are limited in the number of churches that we can work with at this tier level.
