This week Michael Hyatt released a new book Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World. Part One Section 3 brought up some great conversations in our office. Hyatt asks 5 great questions regarding the "Wow" factor. We were naturally interested in what he had to say! We liked his point that if everything is a wow, ultimately nothing is a wow. If this is true, how can we partner with churches and help them increase their wow?
1. What is the experience I want to create or transform into a wow?
Let's say you want to transform your Kid Space to a Wow Space. We obviously love partnering with churches to maximize the wow factor in their kid spaces. We can create just about anything a church dreams up! We realize that creating a great kid space only happens when the mission and vision of the church is reflected in the design and theme created. Thematic environments transform the experience for both parents and kids. Bright design and/or storyline make environments fun and exciting. Your environments make a huge impact on the experiences of both your members and guests. Take a tour of your kid spaces. What are some ways you can transform them in to Wow spaces?
We believe that environments play a huge factor in overall church experience. What is communicated by the space is important. But it is not the only factor of a wow experience. The space can be phenomenal but how folks are treated once they walk through the doors plays a huge part in the experience. Friendly volunteers and staff personify what is communicated through the design of the kid space. When volunteers and staff are committed to excellence members/guests naturally want to be there. How we feel about a place often determines how long we want to stay in that space. When members/guests feel welcomed and comfortable, they will want to stay-they will want to come back. Take a look at your volunteer and staff teams. What are some steps you can take to improve the way members/guests are treated inside your ministry walls?
Grab your staff and discuss Hyatt's final three question from Part One Section 3. We think conversations regarding environments and experiences are important and necessary. Comment back and share your thoughts! We would love to hear your discussions!
3. What specific expectations does the typical member or guest bring to the experience?
4. What does failing to meet the member/guests expectations for this experience look like?
5. What does exceeding members/guests expectations for this experience look like?
We took Hyatt's first two points and discussed them through the filter of church world. Here are a few thoughts on how churches can maximize their wow factor in regard to the experiences they create for their members/guests:

New Around-the-World Theme at Calvary Life!
We're excited about the newly completed around-the-world theme for the new Calvary Life children's building! This is an amazing digital project from Worlds of Wow that incorporates electronically-produced artwork that is applied via wallcovering to create seamless scenes.
The project also included creating an new youth area called "The Loft" that needed a more mature, urban feel. The result is a photorealistic urban look and feel!
The building is almost ready, with final elements like carpet and furniture being added after we finished theming. Take a photo-tour of our installation and see samples of hallways, check-in and classroom themes below:

| A boy and a parakeet greet kids at check-in. |
 |
| From Brazil to India. |
 |
| From Kenya to China. |
 |
| A young boy and his boomerang in Australia. |
 |
| Elementary Check-In is ready to board for the trip! |
 |
| A hallway vignette leads parents and kids to Calvary Life's Check-in. |
 |
| A faux finish that looks like rivets and brick on this wallcovering! |
 |
| Rounding a corner to the Youth area beings the transition to an urban feel. |
 |
| "The Loft" is Calvary Life's area for teens. |
