- You will receive the list of online registrants a couple days before the upcoming meeting.
- Contact registrants the day of the meeting to remind and personally invite them (people who register for virtual meetings sometimes “blow off” the meeting thinking “nobody knows I registered…nobody cares).

- Call registrants who attended, welcome them, ask for their impressions, learn about their business (do a 1-2-1).

- Connect Guest to Another Member:
Introduce the guest to a member who you know will welcome them, answer their questions and take them under their wing throughout the meeting (introducing the guest to others, sitting with the guest…etc.). - If this person is someone who will naturally tend to refer to the guest based on their profession, so much the better.
