    Organizing Your Membership Committees

    The first and perhaps most important step in setting up a successful membership program is organizing your membership committee. The key is to ensure that these important positions are filled and appointees are dedicated and enthusiastic Knights.

    • The grand knight appoints a membership director to oversee all membership programs and recruitment activities.
    • Upon recommendation of the membership director, the grand knight appoints a membership committee of three or more Knights. Select successful recruiters or sales-oriented members.
    • The membership director and recruitment committee members form two-man recruitment teams.
    • The grand knight, upon recommendation of the membership director, appoints a retention chairman and committee.
    • The grand knight appoints an insurance promotion chairman, preferably the council’s insurance agent.
    • The membership director, committee chairmen and committees set goals and plan specific recruitment, retention and insurance promotion activities for the entire year.
    • Plan a full schedule of exemplifications.
    • Identify and schedule recruitment methods that best suit the council’s needs and goals: church drives, open houses, team recruiting, etc.
    • Set membership goals (exceed quota, achieve Star Council, win Century Club, break previous council recruitment record, etc.).
    • Get the ENTIRE council involved. Those who don’t recruit directly can identify/suggest prospects.
