Most evangelicals delegate their evangelism duty to paid professionals

Evidence

Finally, most evangelicals are committed to “evangelism,” bringing others into the faith. The biblical warrant for this is what evangelicals recognize as the Great Commission at the end of the Gospel of Mark, where Jesus instructs his followers to “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.” Very often, however, rather than do the evangelism themselves, evangelicals hire professionals to do it for them: missionaries, for example, or pastors of outreach or evangelism on the staffs of large churches. Still, most evangelicals will affirm their responsibility to bring others into the faith. — Randall Balmer, Bad Faith, 33
