Southeast Regional Report: May - June 2015

As the summer rolls on, be proactive in finding new and creative methods of recruiting. When looking to increase your numbers over last year, don’t forget to check out areas you have yet to try. Not every event has to be a gun show; a county fair, sporting event, church gathering or local trap shoots are great venues for recruiting new members. You have done an outstanding job of covering the gun shows across the region, but we must expand in order to keep membership levels on the rise. Look at every local event as an opportunity to recruit members.

It is imperative that you send in your applications in the correct manner in order to keep processing times to a minimum.  Applications should be clearly divided into three sections Cash, Check, and Credit Cards. Your check or money order needs to be stapled to the cash applications, same as a single check membership. The Gun Show Report is important to help organize the applications in the correct order and will help eliminate errors. Completing a Gun Show Report also allows me to document when I received the applications if questions arise from you or new members.

Finding new events, improving sales pitches and overall better organization will help your membership totals soar. Contact me for updated magazines, decals or anything else you may need to make your recruiting easier! Thank you for your hard work.  Let’s work together to find some new and exciting events for NRA!
