When embarking on the journey of leading an educational tour, the recruitment meeting stands as your first milestone. It's where the foundation is laid, and dreams begin to take shape. Creating an environment that not only informs but also inspires potential participants is crucial. Here’s how you can organize a recruitment meeting that captivates and compels, turning interest into action.

Leverage Provided Resources

Passports equips you with an arsenal of promotional materials, meeting templates, and customized presentations. Use these tools to create a compelling narrative for your tour, showcasing the educational and experiential riches awaiting the students.

Provide Multiple Meeting Options

Provide options for multiple separate in-person meetings. They should be different days, or at least, different times. This is helpful for students who participate in sports or clubs, as well as guardians who work late. You can also offer virtual meetings, too.

Engage with Visuals and Stories

People are moved by stories and visuals. Incorporate testimonials, videos, and imagery into your presentation to bring the destination and the learning opportunities to life. Showing the impact of past tours on participants can spark the imagination and excitement of your audience.

Invite Expert Participation

Tour advisors are ready to enrich your meeting by joining virtually, offering their insights and answering questions in real time. Their expertise adds immense value, providing reassurance and clarity to potential participants and their guardians.

Call to Action

End your meeting with a clear call to action. Guide attendees on the next steps, be it signing up, reaching out for more information, or scheduling one-on-one meetings to discuss individual concerns and aspirations.
