Amy wants everyone to remember that membership is the heartbeat of our organization. There is strength in numbers, we need to retain and increase these numbers each year to stay strong as an organization. It is an honor to give back and support the ones that gave us this opportunity! So, share that opportunity with others!
Here are some helpful tips from Amy about Membership:
- Be prepared to talk the talk and walk the walk about WHY it is so important to join, be positive, friendly and supportive. Share from your heart!
- Every prospective member has a voice, a store and a purpose to belong.
- Carry Membership applications wherever you go!
- Listen to current members ... Try the latest ideas! When a member feels seen and heard, it gives a sense of 'home' and increases their confidence, which then leads to encouraging others to join, and in turn, that then leads to a successful membership year!
Membership is no 'walk in the park,' so let's dance it out!!
