NAIFA's Membership Power Hour is an opportunity to come together to help recruit and renew members. The idea was spurred by NAIFA-Pennsylvania's board which regularly hosts Power Hours and invited the NAIFA Membership staff to participate. Our first National Power Hour will be on Thursday, December 12th at 12 pm eastern. Let us know if you would like to participate by sending us an email at recruitment@naifa.org. We will provide each participant with a list and a basic script to use based on the audience that they will be calling. We all will be on Zoom (intentionally on mute) but we'll be available if you are talking to someone and a question comes up.
We're taking this idea and pushing it out across NAIFA Nation. There are 2 ways you can choose to participate in Power Hour. The first is by raising your hand and volunteering an hour of your time on the second Thursday of the month to make calls. The second is to host your own chapter Power Hour and invite the NAIFA Membership staff to join you to assist in making calls. To date, the membership staff has joined Power Hours in Pennsylvania, Florida, and Massachusetts.
Here's how Pennsylvania hosts their Power Hour. Every month, following their board meeting, a list of members who recently expired or are prospects who may have attended a recent event is divided up and each person has a set of names to call. The board members stay on Zoom, but mute themselves to be accountable for their calls. After the hour is completed, everyone hops back on Zoom for a short wrap-up.
If you are interested in having the NAIFA Membership staff assist your chapter with your power hour, just drop us an email at recruitment@naifa.org. Let us know the date and time you would like to host your Power Hour and we'll be there!
We will be putting together a full kit on how to host a successful Power Hour so you can easily replicate this effort.
