Promotional Team
Overview
The Promotional Team is primarily responsible for all aspects of our club that pertain to our interaction with the community and our public image. It should be the primary goal of all promotional team members to contribute to promoting an overall positive outlook for the team as a whole.
Leadership
(2x) Public Relations (P.R.) Supervisor: The two Public Relations Supervisors are the joint-leaders of the Promotional Team. One of their primary roles is to be a spokesperson for the club, so they must have an excruciatingly thorough knowledge of all aspects of the club, and must be quick on their feet to speak charismatically about them. It is expected for a P.R. to attend most if not all of the events that the team participates in, especially demonstrations of our robot and club. The officers sugg ested that there be one internal P.R who works primarily with the Recruitment and Public Image divisions of the promotional team, while an external P.R. works primarily with the Sponsorship and Event divisions. All financial requests from the promotional team should be reviewed by a P.R. before being approved, especially with large expenses such as hotel reservations.
