How to Grow Membership

Sharing from Scouting Wire:
ONE EASY THING YOU NEED TO DO THAT WILL GROW MEMBERSHIP


If there was one simple action you could take to amplify your local recruiting efforts, would you take it? Obviously that question is a no-brainer and the answer should be a big ol’ YES! Even better, it only takes a few seconds to complete.

Updating your pin with current information on BeAScout is the easiest way unit leaders can help prospective Scouts and their families get in touch with a unit in your council. This quick process hardly takes a minute, yet it translates to significant gains to your council’s membership.

How significant? Historically, we’ve seen a 14.28% increase in member leads generated to councils because they’ve updated their pin. Once schools start up and parents are looking to involve their kids in activities, BeAScout is predicted to receive up to 50,000 unique viewers per week, and you won’t want to miss the opportunity to show off your unit.

  1. I must confess, the pin for my unit (Crew 780) was way out of sorts. I just followed the instructions and fixed it. It was not to hard and took about 5 minutes.
