Meeting Reminder Postcards

[pamperedlinda]

I was thinking about sending a meeting reminder postcard out to my team. anyone have one to share? I need something motivating.

Sorry, I do not have anything like that. Just like with guest at our shows, I think a quick phone call is the best way to remind them.

Well, that works for my team because of our size.

I don't do reminder postcards (we just do emails), but the director I pair up with to do meetings had a great idea that we implemented probably a year ago. We reward for consistent meeting attendance so we have a "repeat attendance" drawing every month at our meetings. At the meeting, each person fills out a postcard addressed to themselves. A week before the meeting, Karen (the other director) sends them out. I guess it is kind of a reminder about the meeting, but more importantly, the consultant has to bring it to the meeting and it gets entered into the drawing for a selection from this big basket we have with smaller products or business supplies. It is kind of fun to reward those who consistently come to meetings every month.

I know it's not quite the same as a reminder post card, but I thought I'd throw it out there as an idea to build attendance.:)

This isn't something that I want to do every month, just every so often. Since I'm newly promoted I wanted to do something extra this month to try and get all of my team to attend. I did send them an email, but I thought that getting a little reminder in the mail would be nice too. And, I'm just too busy (and uncreative) right now to work on making one! I do have some blank PC post cards so maybe I'll just send those with a "hope to see you" message.

Make it a "you won't want to miss" message instead. When I read hope to see you it says to me that I have an option to not go but if someone says there will be value there (special training, a goodie, a freebie...) I am all about being there.

Thanks Beth. Absolutely, I want to make a positive statement on the card. Our meeting is Monday the 14th so I want them to get the card next week.
