StreamVine for Churches

 
We have seen some of the most exciting use scenarios and success stories for StreamVine™ with churches. With StreamVine™ 2.0, we have added many new features and upgrades to make StreamVine™ even more powerful and effective for your church or religious institution.
 
StreamVine™ 2.0 is extremely flexible. For each unique communications channel you launch on StreamVine™, you can have multiple distributions to maximize the exposure and the viral capacity of each campaign. Right now, we'd like to demonstrate three of the most exciting distribution methods: 1) StreamVine™ via Facebook Open Graph, 2) The StreamVine™ Facebook App, and 3) StreamVine™ PURLs.

1) StreamVine™ via Facebook Open Graph


Below you'll find the newest version of our StreamVine player, using Facebook Open Graph to instantly personalize to any Facebook user. To try it out, just login to Facebook and click play. This video will change for every unique viewer. Feel free to email it around to friends and family, share it on Facebook, and get others to watch it. The greeting will change every time.

2) The StreamVine™ Facebook App


Your StreamVine campaign can be hosted on your own website, on our servers, and even inside Facebook - all at the same time. Our Facebook application allows viewers to experience a deeply personalized video stream right inside the Facebook canvas, and enables them to share with their entire network at the click of a button!

3) StreamVine™ PURLs

Personalized URL (PURL) Generation

   
StreamVine first approached churches with a simple concept: if churches would setup and launch a PURL-based StreamVine campaign to members and regular attendees, and ask them to simply watch their videos and click "Tell-a-Friend" to invite up to 5 people at a time to church, they would see exponential growth.
 
What we saw was staggering -- in one case, a small Baptist church experienced record-breaking attendance, and emailed us during Sunday morning services to give us a praise report. One church saw over 2,000 people invited to Easter services in just 5 days, and reported attendance of 8,401 for the weekend. We've seen families come because they were intrigued by the personalized greeting, and some of them haven't missed a weekend since!
 
Here is a short video testimony from Pastor Joe Champion, Celebration Church, Georgetown, TX:
 
PURLs are short URLs that contain the name of the recipient - thus highly increasing the click-through rate for readers. PURLs are highly effective tools for viral growth of a campaign message when using our "Tell-A-Friend" system.

Use the PURL generator (above) to see what a PURL looks like, and click 'Share with Friends' to send an email to people you know containing a PURL created just for them. Each person you send an email to will get their own personalized URL and customized message.
