Alan has proposed his idea at our volunteer and marketing meetings, and has received support and approval for formalizing his proposal for presentation to the membership. This is a simple idea, presented in a clear and structured fashion. What Alan is proposing can help us be more effective as a network, develop working relationships among ourselves, and satisfy more clients as an organization. Please take the time to read it over and respond with your comments. I want to thank those who have responded with their thoughts.
Thoughts are useful, but they are insufficient by themselves.
Now we need to take action. In this organization, that action starts at the volunteers' meetings. See you there. This is a request for comments on a proposal to increase member to member contract referrals. To motivate members to pass on referrals by assigning a dollar value to contract opportunities that they cannot use and otherwise would not have the willingness to pass on.
