Our mission is to build a more connected Church. After more than a decade of working with 10,000 churches and 220,000+ church and ministry leaders, we’ve established some strongly held beliefs which shape our unique company culture and radical commitment to loving our customers, partners, and team members.
Friendly software
Church software has been user un-friendly for a long time. It’s no good having lots of features if your leaders don’t use them. Your team will love Flocknote because it’s both effective and easy to use.
Ditching advertising and social media
We’re bummed the internet has become a giant billboard and marketplace that harvests and sells your personal information. No thanks! So we don’t do online advertising, nor social media. And we take privacy very seriously.
Growing by referrals
Flocknote’s rapid growth has been almost entirely due to referrals from current customers. We like it that way. It means we only get more customers if we take exceptional care of the ones God has already given us. We also deeply enjoy taking the long view, building long-term partnerships with every church we get to serve.
Prayer is essential and we’d be lost without it. We rely on prayer to guide our daily work, and we especially love praying as a team each week for our customers — who are doing the most important work on the planet.
There’s no need to rely on Big Tech, social media, or app stores to reach your flock. There are much better ways to reach way more of your people — like email and text messaging.
The most important software a church chooses is a good communication tool (not a database or fundraising tool that later added on communication features). Because once you can properly reach and lead your people, everything else gets way simpler.
100% Employee ownership
Every Flocknote owner is an employee, and every Flocknote employee becomes an owner. Inspired by Distributism and Catholic Social Teaching, we believe strongly that allowing workers to earn genuine ownership of the means of their production is better for the worker, the company, the Church, and society as a whole.
We love working hard and doing excellent work, but we don’t do it at the expense of our marriages, children, and families. Too many companies reward that kind of sacrifice. It’s not worth it. When you support Flocknote, you’re supporting a company that doesn’t outsource labor and who cares for its workers—offering unique benefits, ownership in the company, and a work environment supportive of marriage and family.
Our team is committed to growing in virtue, loving Jesus, and helping each other to heaven. To maintain this commitment and protect our company culture as we grow, we developed our 10 Guiding Principles and Flocknote Mission Book. Check them out below.
01
THY WILL BE DONE
Are we completely giving ourselves over to God’s will? And embracing the high adventure of His plan, over our plan, wherever that may lead?
02
“I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot. Together we can do great things.” — Saint (Mother) Teresa
