SET YOURSELF UP FOR SUCCESS

Picture
Set a goal of how many people you are going to reach out to and make a list of names and contact info. Give yourself a timeline to keep on track. Remember to follow up. It may take more than one reach out to receive a response.
If they say no... That's ok! There are plenty of other ways to get involved.
  • They set up a table talk at their work.
  • They make a donation or ask their business to sponsor an activity or event.
  • They could apply to be an ambassador.
  • They could participate in our Business or Arts With a Heart program.
  • They may know someone else they can refer who would be a great Big.

SAMPLE GOALS 

  • Attend a Big Ambassador meeting.
  • Talk to people you know who you think would be successful Bigs and provide them with information on how they can get involved. You can share our BE A BIG pamphlet.
  • Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and share our posts with your social network.
  • Post and share program info on your social media accounts.
  • Participate in a short video interview with staff to share your personal story, that we can share on our website and social media accounts.
  • Send a recruitment mailing or email to your contact list. 
  • Have coffee with a friend and chat about the program.
  • Present information to a group (work, church, college, civic organizations, etc.)
  • Invite a BBBS staff member to present to a group that you are associated with.
  • Organize and invite your friends and family to a fun outing, a dine and donate or game night that both helps raise funds for the program and gives you the opportunity to increase awareness for our mission.
