Call ‘em up!

Wondering how to get people registered for Power Shift 2009? Call them!

Here is a lovely display of our team hard at work on the OSU campus. We told everyone to bring phone numbers, divvied everything up, and went to work. It’s important to do a little prep first though, so people feel comfortable pitching Power Shift on the phone. You can use this sample phone script, or just shoot from the hip and talk about whatever you’re most excited about (climate justice, 10,000 young people, career fair, etc.).

What’s working for you?
