Any advice on recruiting techniques and places?

Quite a bit. I did some RA duty before shipping off to OSUT for the army... I will make a list.

1. Ensure you have time and money as CAP most likely will not support you expenses (buy recruiting material)
-Pens, key chains, bumber stickers... there cheap to buy (around 200.00 considering) and will remind someone to actually contact CAP for more information.
2. If you have a laptop, use it. Download videos, photos, facts, manuels... have the information ready so when someone says "what do you do" you can show them a video. Telling them is simple, but noone trusts recruiters. They want to see it, not hear about it.
3. Expect this to be as if your a real recruiter. Call schools and see if they will let you come in on lunches, of talk to your local malls, display booths at events. Order posters on erservices, distribute all over.
-Schools,. colleges, department stores. get permission before you invade the places though. The last thing we want is a negative image.
4. Try not to go a lone. If your a cadet have a  and cadet SM there. If your a SM, work it to have least 2 cadets. Fact is, have more than 1 person. Different stories and different opionions. Plus, you can each wear a different uniform, allowing potentials to have a wider interest in joining.
5. Bussiness cards are a must. Print them at home, or order them. Do whatever, but when all is said and done, nothing says I am a profession like a bussiness card. Plus, it will have a website on it, phone number, address, you can write the meeting time on back (I do this incase we may not be at the normal location, ex: the college gym for PT when we normally meet at the armory).

Hope this helps.

[Dad2-4]

I'm quite limited on what I can do due to my geographical location. I plan to continue to complete as much training as I can online, and contribute, if possible, to any projects that arise here where I might be useful. (cap235629, I'd love to help out if possible on the NRA reg rewrite)
