I'm not an expert either but getting your chapter to total is a two pronged attack- recruiting new members AND retaining the members you already have. Who would want to be a part of a group that fined them for not dropping everything to do a constant stream of COB "events'?

You need to incorporate recruiting new members into the fun things you're already doing as a chapter. The best part of informal recruitment is that you can really show pnms what it's like to be a part of your organization. If there are five or six of you that always go to Taco Tuesday together, that's a COB event, if you bring along a PNM.

Maybe you need to rethink your strategy of meeting the weekly requirement of having a structured event vs how many pnms did you contact this week. Something like the it takes 14 sales calls before you actually make a sale mentality. Don't have enough pnms in your pool? Encourage every chapter member to join one new campus org this semester and invite at least one woman they meet there to come to one of your chapter's activities.

The more you put yourselves out there on your campus in a positive way, and work on making membership in your chapter the best experience it can possibly be, the more women will want to check out what you're doing and either consider joining themselves or say good things about you to others who might just be your next new sister!
