Make sure you start off the school year right. Here are a few suggestions: - Make a list of all elementary, middle, and high schools in your area
- Include contact names, phone numbers, emails
- Include names of club leaders (booster, PTA)
- Become a Partner in Education for each school (might be able to do it at the district level
- Make a plan to meet with contacts; take them one audience at a time (elementary, then middle, then high school, for example); take them cookie trays, coffee, samples AND invite them in
- Build the relationship, ask how you can help and be involved
- Follow up. This is where most people lose out. They think they made a sufficient impression that the principal remembers who they are. They're wrong.
