Are you getting the most out of your Toastmasters Experience?

When we look at the Toastmaster Experience, it always starts at the club. This is where we are introduced to Toastmasters, where we learn to give effective speeches, build our confidence in many types of speaking situations, learn meeting management
as the meeting Toastmaster, and leadership skills through serving as a club officers.

Is your Club Visible?

The goals of public relations (PR) are to build a positive reputation, increase brand awareness, and manage relationships. One way that you can increase brand awareness is making sure that visitors can find your club. I suggest that you register your club in Google My Business.
