Sell the benefits of being in a smaller chapter. Smaller Chapters provide instant opportunities for leadership. You probably have offices that haven't been filled yet, etc...

Also smaller chapters tend to have less cliques and are a little tighter (I've seen my chapter in the last 2 years go from 12 to 40 so I've experienced the spectrum!)

When you're in a smaller chapter there's so much more opportunity to have a voice and make a difference. SO I'd say there are plenty of good reasons to go with your chapter.

Most of all sell high committment and don't settle for people that say they "don't have a lot of time right now" etc.. You'll get the best people if you do that. Show you're having a good time, etc. You'll do fine!

Best of luck!
