Which principle emphasizes selecting initial contacts who can effectively pass on the message?

• A. Personal friendship
• B. Allow time
• C. Address decision makers
• D. Choose effective communicators for initial approach

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that starting with people who can clearly and credibly pass on the message creates a strong, multiplying start for outreach. When the initial contacts are effective communicators, they can explain the vision, address questions, model the changes the message calls for, and motivate others to share it further. This set of capable messengers helps ensure the message is received accurately and energized to spread, which is essential for building momentum and preventing distortion as the movement grows. While relationships, pacing, or targeting certain leaders can play a role later, the best first step is to engage those who can communicate well and mobilize others from the outset.
