ST-What?
You get a blank look when you mention STC? even from some of your techcomm colleagues? That means it’s time.
- Time for you to break the code of silence that has shrouded our profession and our professional society since its inception at the dawn of technology.
- Time for you to spread the word about who we are, what we do, and how much we contribute to the 21st century zeitgeist.
- Time for you jump into the STC Member-Get-a-Member campaign.
How do you do that, you wonder? Here are some suggestions from the STC web site:
- Read Tips and Ideas.
- Read Talking Points.
- Find the membership application here.
- Start recruiting.
- If you have other questions, email Stacey O’Donnell or Lloyd Tucker.
And if the advancement of your profession is not sufficient incentive, here are some goodies that might interest you:
- For every ten members you recruit, your name will be entered to win: An Apple iPhone!
- For every five members you recruit, your name will be entered to win: One of three free, full conference registrations to the STC 2009 Technical Communication Summit (a $795 value!)
- For every three members you recruit, your name will be entered to win: Five free web seminars in 2009.
