Brothers,
As most of you are about to partake in Recruitment at your various schools, I would offer this idea if there is still time.
Last night, I put on a Recruitment Workshop for my Chapter. In creating this, I had certain fears but also certain goals for the workshop. I wanted to target the topics that I, along with other brothers felt needed to be addressed to our brothers. These topics included...
1) Conversation Starters:Recruitment is not about a handshake and bid!
2) Telling the story Delt Sig Style: What are WE Selling?
3) Review of FAQ/Handling Objections or Questions
4) Understanding Each Other: Baseball Analogy
5) Trusting the Process
6) Rules and Pointers
7) Recruitment Speech
For each of these topics, I had specific points I wanted to bring up along with areas for discussion that the brothers would discuss. Well, long story short, the night went AMAZING! First, there were 32 brothers that showed up when the event was not mandatory and just put on by a few of us. Secondly, it gave each other a chance to share the Do's and Do Not's of Recruitment and just what exactly works for each one of us as Individuals. Lastly, it brought us all together as a Chapter in the perspective of what we are selling to our Potential new members. The night ended up going 2 and a 1/2 hrs. and the brothers feeling motivated and pumped up to go and Recruit men.
I just wanted to share my high from this experience and if you have any questions on the topics I discussed or issues I encountered, feel free to email me at the address below. I also used a lot from the Delta Sig National Webpage under recruitment as well as other resources from various conferences. I strongly encourage that you do something like this! I will guarantee that leaving that workshop left me feeling confident that our Chapter was all on the same page about Recruitment in all aspects.
I wish you the best of luck with Recruitment and hope all is well at your respective Chapters and Universities!!!
