During Reverberations 2009, I
had shared my vision of creating
a brand for Toastmasters, with
the delegates. Some of the PR
initiatives that have been
undertaken are:
-
Creation of a Google group
which has connected Public
relation officers of clubs
and Divisions across the
District.
d82PRO@googlegroups.com.
It is a platform where
officers can share:
-
Initiation of the process of
preparing a Media directory
which would serve as
database of media contacts
across the District.
-
Institution of an award for
the ‘Most Active PRO’ at the
Division level.
-
Institution of an award for
the ‘Best Club Website’.
-
Best Bulletin competition –
Print & Electronic media
The PRO office is busy preparing
guidelines for the
awards/competitions, which shall
be announced by January 17,
2010.
Public relation is team work and
can only be successful if every
member contributes to it. I urge
members and clubs to pool in
their resources, so that we can
reach out to a wider audience,
which in turn would lead to
increased membership and clubs.
Wishing you all a Happy and
Prosperous New Year!
