The first step in the success of any campus organization is recruiting and involving dedicated members. Dave ‘Gonzo” Kelly, America’s Student Leadership Trainer, has participated in over 100 student club days and activities fairs over the past 10 years and still participates in 6-8 recruitment tables per year. Dave will show your students how to make this their best recruiting year ever!

• Learn what to do to average 20 to 25 sign-ups PER HOUR
• Learn the right way to run a recruitment table and maximize student interest
• Learn how to talk to students and what to say to get them to sign up for your club or organization
• Learn to change your script depending on what you want to promote
• Learn how to follow-up with students who have visited your table and get them to take the next step
• Learn how to run an effective Information Meeting and get people to show up
• Learn how to recruit faculty members to get involved and support your cause

Attend this session and you’ll recruit the members you need to achieve your mission and accomplish your goals. Dave will demonstrate – step-by-step – the most effective way to manage the recruitment process from recruitment table to the informational meeting to retaining the members who joined. His proven techniques have been taught on college campuses throughout the U.S. and student participation has dramatically increased at those schools.

Because of his experience working with organizations to recruit student volunteers, Dave can share both the time-tested steps for ultimate recruiting success as well as the unique and innovative ideas and techniques that have worked for the wide range of organizations and schools he’s worked with. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel!

Your recruiters will no longer sit behind their tables hoping to attract students by chance. Student involvement on your campus will skyrocket because of the valuable recruiting skills Dave shares in this workshop.

Your students will learn powerful leadership skills, make the most of their co-curricular activities, make contacts and friends, and enhance their entire educational experience.

Dave has trained and mentored thousands of college students in a variety of different organizations. He is the most honored District Administrator in the history of Circle K International (the student arm of Kiwanis International) and was a 2006 finalist for the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities (APCA) Campus Speaker of the Year.

Dave says, “I know how to recruit – and so will your students at the end of this session!”
