How to Create Buzz for Your District's Clubs
The best way to promote the benefits of Toastmasters and bring new members into your district is to generate newspaper articles. One of the largest newspapers in the U.S., the Los Angeles Times, recently published a fantastic article on the front page of its Sunday Edition Business Section. This article is so true and positive because the reporter is a Toastmaster. So let club VPPRs and and your district's PRO know that this is an example of great publicity. If they write press releases based on the benefits of Toastmasters as outlined in this article, they can't go wrong!
