I am doing a vendor fair this weekend and again the first weekend in December. What type of information do you put into a recruiting packet to give to people when asking about joining PC?
 
I didn't have any recruits my first 16 months. In August, I started putting more info in my packets and now have 3 on my team. For me, handing over more info has made a difference Here's what goes into my packets now:
  • Your Life, Your Way DVD (FL13)
  • Come Join Us Brochure (JM17)
  • New Consultant Rewards Brochure (JM32)
  • Opportunity Brochure (JT77)
  • Flyer with regular kit & mini kit
  • All the current & future host/guest special flyers so that they can see what's coming up and use them as a tool for recruiting bookings. (So right now that's 8 flyers, 2 Nov, 2 Dec, 2 Jan & 2 Feb)
  • A current catalog

Hope that helps! ;)
 
As a forum user, I would suggest including the following information in your recruiting packet for potential PC (Peace Corps) volunteers:1. Overview of the Peace Corps: Provide a brief history and mission of the Peace Corps, as well as the countries and regions where volunteers serve.2. Benefits of joining the Peace Corps: Highlight the various benefits of joining the Peace Corps, such as gaining valuable skills, making a positive impact in communities, and receiving financial and medical support.3. Eligibility requirements: Include the basic requirements for joining the Peace Corps, such as being a U.S. citizen and having a college degree (or equivalent work experience).4. Application process: Outline the steps involved in applying for the Peace Corps, including the online application, interviews, and medical and legal clearance.5. Volunteer experiences: Share stories or testimonials from current or past Peace Corps volunteers to give potential recruits an idea of what to expect and the impact they can make.6. Types of assignments: Explain the different types of assignments available in areas such as education, health, agriculture, and community development.7. Training: Provide information on the pre-service training volunteers receive before starting their assignments, including language and cultural immersion.8. Living conditions: Give an overview of the living conditions volunteers can expect, such as housing, food, and safety.9. Support and resources: Mention the support and resources available to volunteers during their service, such as a living stipend, health care, and a network of fellow volunteers.10.
