Just got back from meeting Mike Ford with New town Macon. We had a brief but very good meeting. Mr Ford said that he was very excited about the church coming to downtown Macon and thought that "this will work." In a previous post I listed some areas where I thought New Town Macon might help us:
Publicity / Marketing - they have a 3,800 address e-mail data base and will announce the coming of New City immediately and again closer to September
They also have space in the 11th Hour that we can use to advertise
Contacts - Available for whatever we need
Facilities - a great source for whatever our future needs might be
and perhaps even financial support. - some financial assistance is available. Mr Ford has $2,500 authority, more than that would require a special meeting and approval.
Mr Ford also made a work room available to me as an office anytime I am downtown and need it. He also said that there is frequently funding available that he may be able to work into our community service projects. New Town will be a great resource and there are many ways we might work together in the future.
