Volunteer recruitment, volunteer recognition and volunteer management ideas…

Hi All,

Here’s another volunteer management idea for you on…



MIXING WITH OTHERS FOR RECRUITMENT IDEAS

Most people mix with others of a like mind. Do you only discuss volunteers and volunteer recruitment with others who are also looking for volunteers? How about mixing with people who can give you ideas for recruiting in ways you may not have thought of before? It makes sense to seek out people in marketing, advertising, sales and media, as their livelihoods depend on attracting people to their businesses.

Volunteer management, volunteer recruitment and more volunteer recognition ideas for you…



Hi Everyone,

Last week I presented a challenge for you. Over the coming week ask all or a sample of your volunteers this question and record their answers. When you are “helping others” how does it really make you feel inside? (or something similar).



YOUR MOST POWERFUL VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT MATERIAL

Now what do you do their answers? Their answers are emotional triggers and extremely powerful testimonials. You need to put some of these answers in as direct quotes in your volunteer recruitment material (with their permission). Potential volunteers will absolutely read these quotes.



ADD REAL NAMES AND VOLUNTEER ROLES

But make sure to add the full name of each volunteer (with permission)and their volunteer role. For example, “Jane Jones who volunteers helping to …. (fill in the role)” Rather than just “Jane, A Volunteer”. It makes it more powerful, more believable and starts to educate potential volunteers on some of the roles they could undertake.

Volunteer management and motivations in volunteer recruitment

Volunteer management, volunteer recruitment and volunteer recognition ideas for you…



Hi Everyone,

Last week we talked about emotional triggers in your volunteer recruitment material. You can find this tip and others all on this volunteer management blog…

Emotional triggers are extremely powerful. In completing the largest study undertaken on volunteer motivation, we found that the number one motivation given for volunteering was…”to help others”.

But simply putting “you’ll be helping others” on your recruitment material really is not using the powerful emotions behind this motivation.



SHOWING SOME REAL EMOTION IN VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT

So here is a question for you. How do you take this motivation of “helping others” and add some benefits and emotional triggers?

To get you thinking – let me ask another question. When your volunteers are “helping others” what really are some of the deep emotional benefits they receive?

Next week I’ll share some more suggestions with you.
