Plan of Action! What is Plan of Action you may ask? Its what every Auxiliary Unit should have to keep there membership growing. The following steps are just some of what the National Auxiliary membership Chairman has come up with, who knows they might be something that clicks with your members.
Provide instruction on using new technology for social Networking venues such as: MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Webcams, and Podcasts, to engage younger members to get involved.
Develop an exciting membership marketing plan that creates a positive image of the American Legion Auxiliary by using radio, television, and print as well as, websites and PSAs.
These are only a few steps and Im sure each unit in our state have there own unique ways to promote there Units. I would like to hear how each of your Units promotes membership in your Community.
You may either email me at eightbits37@hotmail.com our send me a letter (address in the officers book). I promise to sure your Units ideas in my next months newsletter!
With new Ideas come new members! An Auxiliary member once told me (Ms Flo) if we always do what weve always done, then we will always get what we always gotten. Which is a dwindling membership roster, although we need to retain our members, we also must grow!
