1. Platform and Literature

2. People remember 50% of what they see and hear and only 10% of what they read.
So why bother making Literature?
- The quote above is a lie!
- Some people grasp information better visually than orally
- Provides a creative visual to complement what you're saying
- Allows you to show what you can't express verbally
- Gives something for delegates to remember you by when voting

3. A picture is worth a thousand words.
- Can you summarize how much you love Key Club and why you think you're fit to be Lieutenant Governor...in less than five minutes?
- Didn't think so.
- Literature provides subjective insight
into the candidate's personality
- Don't rush and speak quickly, instead put things into your
literature that you don't have time to talk about.

4. A word is worth 1/1000 of a picture!
- Although visuals are nice, a good idea is to include...
- Name and Contact information (phone, , etc)
- Endorsement (does your home club support you?)
- Platform
- Key Club credentials (what makes you qualified?)
- A quote (like the cool one below!)
- A short biography (your life has to be interesting)

5. Rules were made to be broken...NOT!
- Make sure to pay close attention to the following guidelines:
- Only one piece of literature is allowed
- The one piece of literature may be defined by:
- One 8.5x11 inch page double sided
- Two 8.5x11 inch single sided pages
- Additional material may NOT be glued or
attached on
- Feel free to use color or black and white

6. Get it out there! - All literature MUST BE emailed to your LTG
at least ONE WEEK prior to the conclave
- Failure to do so may result in the division
not receiving your candidacy information
- All candidate literature will then be distributed to the division
by the LTG.
- Methods may include posting them onto the divisional reflector,
, and/or onto the CNH CyberKey.

7. Campaigner's block? Don't worry!
- A good idea is to start by setting up a platform.
- A platform should outline your goals.
- If you had to sum everything you are up into one
thing, that's your platform!
- Focus on your division and what you can do for it
- Don't forget to mention why you want to be Lieutenant Governor,
not just what you'll do if you win.

8. Focus on the details
- Although it's great to have a big picture, the details are what
make it all worthwhile
- Reflect on your division's current performance, its performance
in the past, and what you plan to do for the future
- Be both realistic and optimistic
- Don't forget that your platform reflects who YOU are
- Keep in mind, the Lieutenant Governor manages an entire
DIVISION, not just one club

9. E.L.E.G.A.N.T! - Everyone Loves Efficient, Good Acronyms ← Nice Try!
- An acronym is a good example of a platform, but don't waste
hours thinking of an acronym, sometimes they just don't work
- Mascots, motivational phrases, or big words all work great!
- Be general, then go in-depth at your Conclave. This way, your
platform can function as an outline for your speech
- Please, be appropriate and professional. Things that seem funny
at the time will not seem funny later on

10. Here's an example (you can't use this!)
P – Promoting healthy living
O – Organizing divisional fundraisers for DCON
K – Keeping in close contact with Kiwanis
E – Elevating funds raised for PTP
M – Making care packages for soldiers
O – Open doors for the disadvantaged
N – Navigating our division to a successful future!
