Outreach Media

What Outreach Media does

Outreach Media Group (a trade name of Outreach, Inc., headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado) is a private advertising and media company founded in 1996 that sells targeted advertising access to faith-based audiences in the United States. The company operates two audience networks: a Church Leader Web Network reaching over 2 million church and ministry leaders monthly across brands including SermonCentral, ChurchLeaders, OutreachMagazine, MinistryTech, ChurchJobFinder, ChurchPlants, ChurchDiscounts, and SermonQuotes; and a Faith-Based Consumer Network reaching 2-4 million home influencers monthly across Faithit, ForEveryMom, ThrivingMarriages, and ToSaveALife. Together these twelve wholly-owned web properties, plus a bi-monthly print magazine, form a vertically integrated owned-and-operated media stack purpose-built for the Christian market.

The company's core technology is a portfolio of niche content websites and a print publication rather than a unified software platform; ad serving, email delivery, and content management appear to operate as standard digital advertising infrastructure across the brand portfolio. Advertising products include display banner ads (showcase, billboard, half-page, tower, and mobile formats), dedicated email blasts to opt-in subscriber lists, eNewsletter native ad placements, and full-color print magazine placements including a special annual Outreach 100 issue. No APIs, SDKs, or AI/ML components are disclosed. Pricing is fully custom and quote-based, with multi-year contracts and an $85/hour reprocessing fee for ad content changes.

Revenue mechanics are entirely advertising-driven, sold via direct sales through National Media Consultants who deliver consultative campaign planning. The go-to-market targets six advertiser verticals: faith-based films, Christian publishers, ministries, Christian schools, financial services, and church technology. Named clients include Regal Cinemas, Biola University, Harper Collins Christian Publishing, Tyndale Publishers, Zondervan, Thomas Nelson, David C. Cook, LifeWay Church Resources, World Vision, Focus on the Family, Children's Hunger Fund, and Burns Family Studios. The company maintains a data-sharing partnership with Gloo, LLC and its affiliates. Headcount is small (1-10 employees), and no external funding has been disclosed.

Direct peers

• Movieguide: Movieguide is a faith-based media organization that reviews and promotes Christian/family films — directly comparable to one of OMG's named specialty verticals (Faith-Based Films) and the Burns Family Studios / Regal Cinemas client use cases.
• Charisma Media: Charisma Media runs Charisma Magazine (print + digital) and a network of faith-based web properties aimed at charismatic/Pentecostal church leaders and consumers, with an advertising-led revenue model overlapping OMG's print-and-portfolio approach.
• Salem Web Network (Salem Communications): Salem Web Network operates a large portfolio of Christian and conservative-leaning websites (e.g., Crosswalk.com, Christianity.com) and sells advertising to reach faith-based audiences — the closest large-scale analog to Outreach Media Group's Church Leader Web Network + Faith-Based Consumer Network model.
• Christianity Today: Christianity Today publishes faith-based editorial across web and newsletters and monetizes via advertising, sponsorships, and subscriptions targeting church leaders and Christian consumers. Comparable to OMG's mix of niche editorial brands plus advertising revenue to the same audience.
• The Christian Post: The Christian Post operates a high-traffic faith-based news website and sells display and sponsored-content advertising targeting Christian readers and church leaders — a comparable ad-supported digital media play in the same vertical.
• Relevant Media Group (RELEVANT Magazine): Relevant Media Group operates a print magazine plus digital channels targeting younger faith-based consumers and church leaders — directly comparable to OMG's Faith-Based Consumer Network in audience and product mix.

Others

• Faithlife (Logos Bible Software): Faithlife produces Bible software, publishing, and digital content tools for church leaders and Christian consumers. Comparable as an ecosystem participant targeting the same advertisers and audiences, though monetization is primarily subscription rather than advertising.
• Gloo (formerly Gloo, LLC): Gloo operates a faith-based platform and data network and is a named data-sharing partner of Outreach, Inc. Comparable as an enabling ecosystem participant that overlaps in audience targeting and could be a buyer, partner, or competitor depending on direction.

Emerging players

• ChurchRelevance / Church Fuel: Smaller digital-first organizations serving church leaders with content, resources, and advertising/sponsorship opportunities — overlapping audience and partial overlap in business model with OMG's Church Leader Web Network.

Broad incumbents

• Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN): CBN is a much larger faith-based media organization spanning TV, digital, and publishing with substantial advertising and sponsorship revenue. Comparable as a broad incumbent competing for the same advertiser dollars targeting Christian audiences.
