What your guild walks away with?
- Five concrete tools, not vague inspiration.

Real Resources

  • A welcome-environment audit: Work through the specific venue, caregiving, accessibility, and diversity questions that decide whether a younger visitor comes back a second time. 
  • A ready-to-use outreach script: Exact questions to ask your own under-40 members — or a working group — instead of guessing what would help. 
  • Low-barrier entry ideas your guild can start this month: Trial visits, guest passes, and new-member incentives members can implement without a bylaws change. 
  • A realistic marketing checklist: What belongs on your website and social media, how often it actually needs updating, and where to physically post flyers so the right people see them. 
  • A discussion segment built around your guild: Live Q&A time for your specific sticking points, not just generic audience questions.

This talk is built for guilds that are ready to...

  • Notice their membership skewing older, with few or no members under 40. 
  • Want a practical strategy session — not a lecture on how to use TikTok or Instagram.
  • Are willing to look honestly at meeting logistics, venue policies, and marketing habits. 
  • Want their board or committee to leave with a checklist, not just an idea.
