Marketing Monday Tip – 2/6/2012

Add a Toastmasters-oriented signature line to your email. Many people already have a quote, a color display of their name, or perhaps a company logo**  Try adding a simple quote that points either directly or indirectly to Toastmasters.  This will plant another seed in the minds of your friends, family and colleagues.

Examples of what to do:

“Speech is power: speech is to persuade, to convert to compel.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

“The unprepared speaker has a right to be afraid.” – Dr. Ralph C. Smedley, Founder of Toastmasters

Example of what not to do:

Don’t include your top 10 reasons for joining Toastmasters (unless you space them out, one reason per week over a 10 week span).  Keep it short & sweet.

If you have a company mandated signature line, you probably shouldn’t change it. Try this with your personal email or just drop another couple of seeds (last week’s tip).
