Looking For More Members? It's all about getting the word out! If someone didn't promote your local chapter at some point, you would not be a member and enjoying your membership! Now that you've joined, why not help tell the world? Since our beginnings in 1992, we've learned that some things work, and some don't. We've learned that articles in newspapers in your local city will bring a great response. But it must be in an area people read . . . like the front page of a section written by a regular columnist! Things that have worked, in addition to newspaper articles, are 1) posting the yellow sign that comes with your newsletter with the 10 tear-off tabs (especially when posted at local golf courses), 2) getting every member to bring a guest at the next meeting and 3) asking those guests if they'd like to join. (Too many times, guests are introduced and the chapter president moves on with the meeting. The reason most guests don't join is . . . they're never ASKED to join!!! If you need a copy of a printed application form, click here. Things that haven't worked are 1) paid advertising (advertising "singles" comes across in a negative way and this has not worked well in the past), 2) golf shows where the members leave literature and don't participate in the booth, and 3) passing out cards in bars (seems like it would work, but do they remember anything the next day?). If you're interested in helping to promote your chapter, we have some goodies for you. We'll be happy to send you 25, 50 or 100 yellow signs to post (with their permission) at local establishments, your company, etc. In addition, we can help you write a press release about an upcoming even you may have. Show us real interest and you'll see how your national headquarters will step to the plate. Just use the CONTACT US link at left and we'll be back in touch with you! And thanks for spreading the word about ASGA! Click here to download the camera ready page that we use to print yellow signs. Office Max / Office Depot sells a ream of bright yellow paper for about ten bucks - - a good investment for 500 signs! Take your camera ready art to their copy center and get the 500 printed while you're there! The ten dollars your chapter makes from members joining should more than pay for this expense - hopefully a hundred times over! |
