  15. Plan Your Club’s Success No one plans to fail . . . They just fail to plan. Planning for your club’s success will increase membership and retention.

  16. Goal Setting • Specific • Measurable • Action oriented • Realistic • Time bound

  17. Smart Goal Example: We will Increase the number of members 10% by September 30, 2013 We will Increase the number of members 25% by September 30, 2013

  18. What are my Membership Options? Traditional Members? Those who can attend your weekly meetings. Does your club charge for meals with the dues?

  19. Project Members • Members who are always there for your service projects but are unable to attend traditional weekly club meetings. • Pay for meals when they attend • No requirements for attendance to meetings, suggestion is one time per month • If your club charges for meals they only pay for membership dues – example $120/year

  20. Project Club Meeting Schedule an additional Club meeting in the evening to accommodate those with a schedule that does not allow them to attend. Great for SLP Faculty Advisors Folks that do not work in your city but live there. Cost of meals not included in dues

  21. Project Partnership Club 2 Clubs Come Together to form a once a month meeting usually held in the evening Example – North Dallas Project Partnership Club www.ndckiwanis.wordpress.com KWB = KIWANIANS WITHOUT BORDERS!

  22. Retention • Members will stay in a program when they are engaged and committed • However, they leave when factors discourage continued involvement • Nurturing relationships is worth your time–the payoff is–they become loyal members
