Volunteers – Making The Most Of Them

Recognize when you need help. We all like to have the pride of doing things on our own, but putting together a party is a big endeavor (even with all my guidance and tips). So recognize when you’re feeling a little overwhelmed, and rather than allowing yourself to burn out, turn to volunteers.

Use my PartyCharlie Checklist at the end of my book to determine in which areas you could use assistance.

Make a list of equipment you need to borrow and assign this task to a volunteer.

Make a list of the times when you expect rental deliveries, such as for tables and chairs. Don’t forget that if you’re allowing one of your volunteers to do this, he or she needs to check in every rental piece so you don’t get charged for something that was damaged or never arrived.

Invite your volunteers to choose a job they would enjoy doing. People are more likely to do something well if they really care about it.
