In the 21 years that Pastor Resources has been in circulation, thousands of pastors have opted into our e-mail list. These are the same responsive pastors that generate the leads for our clients in our PR Guide. Our clients receive average open rates between 30-35% with 5-10% average CTR. With the right offer, some of our advertisers have seen clicks as high as 25%!

Please note: In order to maintain the size and quality of our list, we screen all campaigns to ensure there’s a clear and powerful benefit to our pastors, and we prefer to include a free offer in every campaign. In either case, ALL exclusive e-blasts require the JCA Company staff approval prior to scheduling.
