This panel will explore how to recruit at conventions and how to spread the word about fandom in general, using The Royal Manticoran Navy as the example. It will examine the use of professional advertising methods and how they can be used to maximize your message and will also look at the consistency of the message. It will examine the perceptions of conventions on this method of recruiting as well. The vaunted TRMN Party Room will be discussed and the secrets to running a successful convention party will be covered. This is a good opportunity to learn how to also link in your charity efforts together with your central message and help grow both at the same time.
