Hi Djebah
A very good question.
To set up a local meeting, i'l advice you to first get a professional and affordable venue. Like an adage says, 'the way you are dressed, is the way you'l be addressed'. If you are really looking for serious and quality PSAs and PRMs, then your venue and its location matters. Where your business location is will determine the calibre of people that will come and therefore determines the quality of your seminar and your recruitment.
That said, you need to also put the following in place:
1. Your targeted audience: who are the people you are really after to recruit? Then let your flyer/ banner speaks about it. That speaks a lot of volume as it eliminates the crowd of people you don't want.
2. Preparation Of The Seminar: how many people are you inviting? What is your budget towards it? Who is your major speaker? Who are the team working with you or it is a solo work? Your preparation will determine your performance. Try and raise a team to work with you. It speaks a lot about the quality of your work.
3. Materials For The Seminar: There must be quality and standard materials in place for those who'l come. I'l advice you to use the SFI marketing aids to guide you especially SFI X cards which should be given as take aways or as sovenirs.
On the walls of the venue should be various SFI marketing aids that can catch the eyes when entering. This speaks a lot to your audience. It gives a professional atmosphere and touch.
4. A humorous and interactive section and atmosphere should be inculcated, where questions and answers are done in a relaxed atmoshere.
5. Time Management: you must plan the hours to be used in such meetings and it must be precised, short, straight to the point discussion and interesting. As a businessman respect people's timing for the sake of another time. Be strict on your time schedule.
6. During discussions, entertain. Let your entertainment be moderate and professional as well e.g snacks will do and not biscuits.
7. Give room for contributions by your participants and you'l have had a successful and inspiring sign up seminar.
Wish you the best of luck.
