The 2020 Goals of Encouraging Angels

Dear friend of Encouraging Angels:

2019 was a transitional year for EA as we moved into a ‘broadcast’ model’ to reach many more who stand to benefit from our broadcast of ‘Alive At 5’. Depending on the week (viewership fluctuates of course) we served 3-5 times more individuals (who also may have more than one person watching). year over year. The analytics for our website were also up significantly: Unique visitors up 19.7%, Visits up 33.5% and Pageviews up 36.6% (year over year 10/29/18 - 10/29/19). Dec 2019 was one of the biggest months for website growth as month over month Unique Visitors increased 373%, Visits +400% and Pageviews were up 466%.

In 2019, EA broadcast to its base on Facebook as we ‘learned the ropes’ when it came to live internet broadcast of music and message. As some of you could attest to it was just painful to go through the process at times with us.

We still have much to learn as our main goal of advancement is to bring our method of distribution from Facebook to the internet (and world) at large. This is going to take more technical expertise than we have right now; another steep learning curve ahead! Another goal is for us to host three concerts with a full band (rather than just Stan) during 2020. Just as our Dec 2019 analytics showed great development in our new ‘business’ model, we trust that 2020 will be a year of increase in the number of people we serve. We are working on the funding for the above and pray that the Lord will provide for us to be supported in this endeavor as He faithfully has for over a decade.

Thank you for being interested enough to keep up with what we are doing by taking the time to read this update. We will still be off for a few weeks from broadcasting ‘Alive’ as we work on other projects here at Encouraging Angels world headquarters (Sounds glamorous right? Believe me its not…).

Happy 2020!

Stan and Cindy Szymanski
