Easy to post. Setting up your agency profile and volunteer needs is easy. The Agency Manager's Toolbox has great help resources or contact me, if you have questions.
Extend your reach. You already have a great page on your website to register volunteers. VolunteerMT.org extends your reach to people who may not have thought about your specific agency. You are included in the options they are reviewing on the site and there are links to your site.
Concerted marketing/outreach effort to get people to the site. There are radio PSAs and digital ads running. Rack cards are out in the community. I am out there talking to all sorts of groups of people who are interested in volunteering and encouraging them to go to the site.
The site is staff supported. Extras like emails to users or blog posts about your volunteer needs are possible. Forward these or share on social media for more targeted reach and increased exposure.
Results. One agency posted 20 volunteer slots late on Monday afternoon. Wednesday morning an email went out to all active users about the opportunity. Volunteers signed up for half the slots by Friday morning.
