Needed - Recruiting Ideas for Our Meeting!

In summary, at Cluster Meetings, directors have their teams break into groups to brainstorm recruiting strategies such as targeting teachers for their extra time and potential for fundraisers, and coming up with catchy phrases to use. They also offer incentives, such as $20 gift cards, for bringing guests and recognizing those who have shared the business with others. There is also a thread on a similar topic on the Chef Success forum.

If anyone has any Recruiting Activities that they or their upline Directors have used at Cluster Meetings, could you please share?

We are looking for something to do in pairs or as a group at our Meeting TONIGHT!

Thanks soooo much in advance, you are all AWESOME!
 
At almost every meeting, our directors have up break up into groups and come up with various things...

For recruiting, they would probably have us brainstorm about types of people to recruit over the summer, why they should start their business now and "catch phrases" to use to get them hooked. Then we would gather back as a whole group and each of the smaller groups would share what they came up with...

For example...
Teachers because most of them have extra time right now and can focus more on the business. They can also start earning extra money to buy things for their classrooms for the fall and have enough time to talk with their PTA/PTO/etc. rep to get a PC fundraiser in for the next school year. I'm drawing a blank on catch phrases right now, but that is the whole purpose of the exercise.

Our directors also give $20 gift cards (for Panera or Starbucks) to people who bring guests (either potential recruits or new recruits if this is their first meeting). We have LOTS of new people at our meetings now.

We also recognize (by having them stand and everyone else claps and cheers) anyone who has shared the business with anyone during the previous month - regardless of whether they signed anyone or not... the idea is just to get people to share. They also ask if anyone went outside their personal comfort zone when sharing (for me that would be something like approaching someone in the grocery store, etc.) and ask them to share about the experience - good? bad? would you do it again? what did you say? etc.

There is another thread with a similar topic going right now... hopefully this link works...

Hi there! I highly recommend doing a "speed networking" activity at your cluster meeting. It's a fun and interactive way for everyone to get to know each other and potentially find new recruits.Here's how it works: Have everyone pair up and give them a set amount of time (maybe 2-3 minutes) to introduce themselves, share a bit about their Mary Kay journey, and exchange contact information. Then, have one person in each pair rotate to the next person and repeat the process. Keep rotating until everyone has had a chance to meet each other.This activity not only allows for potential recruits to get to know each other, but it also gives everyone the opportunity to practice their elevator pitch and refine their networking skills. Plus, it's a great way for everyone to feel included and connected at the meeting.Hope this helps and good luck with your cluster meeting tonight! You got this!
