As Catholics, we're called to market differently.


If you've spent any amount of time on the internet, you know how pressurized marketing has become:

The upsells that never end.

The manipulative, "right on the edge of being a lie" overselling that's framed as helping you out (but is really just playing on your psychology).

The ads that follow you EVERYWHERE.

As Catholics, we're called to market differently.

We're called to market from love — not for our gain or pride, but for God's glory and to serve the people He's asked us to serve.

Most marketing tools and strategies aren't bad. You can and should use them to grow your business or ministry.

But how we use them matters.

We can't just follow what the secular world teaches us about how to market.

In Market Like Jesus, I walk you through evaluating all of these tools and strategies in light of Church teaching and ethics (because yes, there are Church teachings on marketing and advertising!).

It isn't just another marketing course, but with a Catholic label slapped on it.

And it's not just about teaching you how to appeal to Catholic audiences specifically or market around the liturgical season (though of course we talk about that!).

It's about a radically different approach to marketing overall: One that is rooted in love and sees marketing as holy work oriented towards bringing people closer to Jesus.

This kind of marketing still works. You can grow your business or ministry with it. Just in a way that doesn't compromise your Catholic values.

Inside Market Like Jesus:

I teach you how to pray about your marketing, not just do it.

(I even give you specific prayers to pray for different marketing tasks.)

We don't just plan; we discern. We make sure each part of your marketing strategy is intentional, and we start each module with prayer to constantly invoke the Holy Spirit's guidance.

I incorporate Church teaching for guidance on how to use each strategy ethically or if there are any strategies that are not in line with Catholic values.

And most importantly, we root every strategy in how Jesus did all of this first.


It's deeply practical — I teach you all the marketing tools and strategies and you'll walk away with a fully fleshed out marketing plan...

...but in a way that feels more like a Bible study and a devotional than a course and workbook.

Because I want your marketing to bring others to Jesus, and I want it to bring you closer to Him too.

If you want to learn how to market that way, I invite you to join me inside Market Like Jesus.

Market Like Jesus Course

Develop your marketing strategy, grow your business or ministry, and make marketing fun and holy

This course blew me away! I've attended a lot of online courses and the amount of content Emily provided was above and beyond any I've experienced.

Prior to the course, I used to feel like marketing was sleazy, but Emily gives examples of Jesus using these same exact principles to bring followers into His Kingdom. It was super eye opening! Now I feel more confident using these principles to encourage followers to join me in my ministry.

— Kristine Bruce, Praying for Our Prodigals


We don't need to be afraid of marketing. It's an incredible tool God has given us to grow our businesses and ministries for His glory, and He did all of these things first.

And when we market like Him and for Him, He is never outdone in generosity.

So let's use these tools to market so differently people notice and praise God for it.

Doors to Market Like Jesus close at 11:59 pm tonight — I'd love to see you inside.

For His greater glory,

Emily

P.S. Though I don't always do it perfectly, this is how I'm trying to market from love right now:

Obviously there is a part of me that wants you to buy this course because every purchase helps me keep this dream going and support my family (thank you!).

But what outweighs that even more? I DON'T want you to buy it if it's not going to help you.

My constant refrain in prayer during the marketing for this launch has been: "Lord, help this to convince the people who this course will help."

Because I truly care about what you do and how it helps people and gives God glory.

And I want you to grow so you can tell more people about how awesome Jesus is through the unique gifts and talents He's given you.

So I only want you to join Market Like Jesus if it will help you do that.

If you're not sure if it will, hit reply and share your unique needs and struggles and I promise you that I will be honest if I think this will help you!

But if you already know it will, then come join me inside Market Like Jesus — reminder, doors close tonight at 11:59 pm!

"That's it, I told God I'm done," I declared to my husband after coming home from Adoration one evening in 2017. I explained to him that I was going to shut down Gloriam. I'd been building it for six months while also working full time and finishing up grad school. And what did I have to show for all my efforts? Zero new clients. The conversation that followed went something like this: ⬇️ 👩 Me: "God must not want me to do this business. He's not bringing me any clients." 👨 My husband (with...

Raise your hand if: 1️⃣ God called you to this work. 2️⃣ You said yes. (It took about 15 signs and lots of avoidance, but you eventually gave your version of fiat — "Okay God, I'll do it, but you better help me.") 3️⃣ You put all your heart and soul into it. 4️⃣ And then...nobody actually buys or signs up. Now you're questioning if people just hate what you do or if God actually even called you to this because why isn't He bringing people to you?! 👉 Or maybe you've had some success, but you...

Imagine this: You get an email out of the blue. That Catholic show you've dreamt of being on? They're inviting you for an interview. Or let's say you create a Reel you don't think much of (it's always those, right?), but wake up in the morning to thousands of notifications that it went viral. Praise God! All those eyeballs!!! This is your big break — your business or ministry is going to explode now, right? Let me ask you a question: If a whole bunch of people suddenly found out about your...
