If they do meet the standards, spend more time with them and get to know them better. If they don't, still be friends with them, just redirect your recruitment intentions to someone else.
The chapter needs to create a recruitment/PR plan that go along well together. Make sure women are involved in other organizations/activities, train them on small talk outside of recruitment parties and make sure you have measurable membership standards that everyone knows and sticks to. Have each sister give the MVP 3-5 names of women they think could have potential and invite them to some of the activities someone mentioned above.

The problem is that sometimes groups are just told "get numbers" and "meet new people" without a concrete plan to do that successfully being put into action. What you said above was perfect, though.
