Below Bronze Level Chapters Membership Growth Strategies

1. Below Bronze Level Chapters Membership Growth Strategies

2. PPP Objective • Push 90% Retention of current active chapter roster • Pull 20% of any non-financial brothers who have been initiated into the chapter within the last 3 years • Push chapter growth through membership intake classes of 5+ members • This will aid the fraternity to increase its membership to 15,000 members during 2015

3. PPP Goals • Implement a consistent and deliberate calendar of events that is closely aligned to PPP • Use identified chapter liaisons as an additional resource to assist with PPP activities. This is especially vital for the below Bronze Level Chapters (collegiate chapters of less than 5 members and Alumni Chapters of less than 15 members) • Establish a chapter calendar to market chapter events so brothers in the area can assist, attend, and support the chapter’s activities

5. Project Push • Establish a payment plan for 2015 dues collection for current members • Push for 90% of brothers who are financial in 2014 to pay for the next year by December 1st.

6. Project Pull • Reactivate 20% of inactive brothers who have been initiated into the chapter within the last 3 years. • Receive from IHQ a list of brothers who have been initiated into the chapter the last 2 years and the chapter attrition report from the previous year • Develop a contact list of these inactive brothers containing their most recent contact information • Develop strategies with the chapter to achieve the specified goal of reactivated members for the chapter • Every current chapter member, based on the amount of members in the chapter, will dedicate themselves to pulling a specified number of brothers back into the chapter

7. Project Push • Recruit at least 5 members for your membership intake class to assist with chapter growth • Retention of Sigma Beta members through transition to Membership Intake into collegiate chapter (if there are any SB’s available on the campus)
