Article: People that know you intimately are going to be more inclined to help you at the beginning. Consider asking close friends and family to join as registered members of your organization. Even if they don't meaningfully contribute, it'll show future potential members that they aren't alone in joining your group. Develop a quick pitch that can be delivered in one minute or less. Make sure that you explain your organization's importance and how you plan to affect change. Join Facebook groups and follow Twitter hashtags that relate to your organization's specific goals and overarching issues. This will help you identify people that may be interested in helping and give you an easy platform to promote your group. Encourage people to share your website, and use every opportunity to bring awareness to your topic. A good social media post will start off with a call to action, followed by more specific details about your group. A strong call to action will activate interest in your group's solution to a problem. "Save the whales!" or, "Don't you want to improve life here in your city?" are both excellent openers because they provoke the reader to do something. Keep hashtags as short as possible in order to make sure that people remember them. They should include an action, whenever possible. "#StopLittering" is a perfect example of a simple hashtag that demands something from the audience. Incentives are an excellent way to get people excited about joining your group. They also increase morale and encourage involvement in your organization. Simple incentives like group outings, meals, snacks, and free t-shirts are excellent motivators that you can use to get people to join your group. You can also appeal to an audience's sense of belonging to attract members. Try playing up networking opportunities and telling potential members that they'd make a great fit in your organization.
