Hi everyone
Cliff Wheatley has not renewed his membership and as he was Vice President of Public Relations we need to appoint a VP PR for the remaining financial year (to end June 2011). The duties of the VP PR are:
Vice President Public Relations
Promote your club!
As the vice president public relations, you are in charge of the promotional activities for your club. The manual When You Are the Vice President Public Relations describes these standards more fully and explains how to fulfill them.
It’s also a good idea to order or download Let The World Know: Toastmasters’ Publicity and Promotion Handbook.
Outside the Club Meeting:
· Attend district-sponsored club officer training.
· Promote the club to local media.
· Produce and distribute a club newsletter at least monthly, and/or maintain a club Web site.
· Promote membership programs.
· Attend club executive committee meetings.
· Attend other Toastmasters events.
· Arrange for a replacement if unable to attend a club meeting.
· Prepare your successor for office.
At the Club Meeting:
· Announce upcoming events and programs.
· Ask for contributions to the newsletter and/or Web site.
· Greet members and guests.
Download the PDF, When You Are the Vice President Public Relations, for further information.
The link at TMI is http://www.toastmasters.org/whenyouarethevicepresidentpublicrelations.aspx
Mainly our club duties are to prepare and send out a monthly newsletter and also to update the website regularly and assist with any other website/googlegroup update. Also attendance at the monthly committee meetings is required. The committee can assist with articles and information for the newsletter.
If you are interested please contact me for more information and/or to nominate for the role. If more than one nomination is received we will conduct an election at the next Toastmasters meeting on the 18th November. Nominations close 17th November 2010. Please consider this role as it is not onerous and you can hone your marketing and public relations skills.
