Toastmasters 75 business model is not a renewable subscription you pay and forgot to use. No sneaky subscription.
Think about a gym club (or Amazon Prime) membership.
In fact, Toastmasters 75 has no business model. It is a non-profit organisation 😃.
We are looking for active self-starting members who participate regularly, sign up by themselves on future events.
Qualities we are looking for:
You don't need handholding to register online (you filled the attendance form is already a proof ).
You are organized and plan in advance which role you will take.
You have ownership of what you do
You really to join, then do it. After a long inactive period, members will forget you, and you will have to start all over again.
What is the difference between a member and a guest ?
Members have an assigned role and can give prepared speeches. They also have mentors and have access to the Pathways educational program.
Guests may be asked to participate in Table Topics if you accept the challenge. Given the availabilities.
