If the weather is bad hold a conference room at a local hotel if available, or arrange a Home Party where you invite fewer guest into a sizable living room for snacks and a presentation.
If the weather is beautiful a park or lakeside meeting might offer added peace and comfort for your visitors and you can easily arrange snacks of a pot luck picnic and games for kids and families to make the gathering fun and memorable.
Try to keep the actual presentation to under 1 hour and leave plenty of time for lots of questions and always have hand outs. Use X-cards and ECA Brochures, printed flyers, and order a magnetic car sign and bring something metal to stick it to so it displays for all who attend to see. The more physical aids you have the more professional you will appear and the more they will trust the legitimacy of your business.
Always have at least 3 times as many cards and flyers as you think you'll need because some people may not personally join but may ask for a flyer and card to give each of their siblings or someone at church they know needs money.
Get fired up for your presentation. Watch a motivational video the morning of the event, listen to rock music on your drive there, and be explosive with your presentation because your passion or lack there of will set the tone of the room and you want people borrowing your phone or tablet to sign up now.
