Are You Ready to ... Talk Up Toastmasters! Program Dates: February 1 – March 31 Toastmasters love to talk? So take advantage of it. During the "Talk Up Toastmasters!" membership contest, you can encourage your members to invite guests to a special meeting where regular procedures are augmented by a discussion of Toastmasters' many benefits. Add five new, dual or reinstated members to your roster between February 1 and March 31 to receive a special "Talk up Toastmasters!" ribbon to display on your club’s banner.

Our goals for Marketing:
1) One new member per club per month
2) One new club per area this year
Reach your goals this year by adding one new member per club per month!
Top 10 List for Getting More Members to your club:
1. Invite someone you know and bring them to your meeting.
2. Conduct a Speech Craft and advertise it through the local Chamber of Commerce or better yet have the Chamber sponsor it.
3. Run membership contests each month and reward the winner.
4. Conduct a Seminar and take it on the road.
5. Corporate Clubs have the HR allow a member of your club to do a presentation on toastmasters during an employee indoctrination.
6. Corporate Clubs invite Senior Management to a special meeting once a quarter and allow them to say a few words.
7. Spotlight your guests, invite them back and follow up after the meeting.
8. Always make sure your contact info on any media is up to date with a person who responds immediately.
9. Place flyers at all the local businesses near your meeting location.
10. Adverstise regularly in the local paper.
Please call me or shoot me an email to discuss how to achieve these goals. I would like to hear from you all. We can accomplish anything with good communication. I have my contact information below. I look forward to working with you all this year. Remember one new member per club per month!
