Jarrad shows the way.
For those who may not know Jarrad, he's been a familiar face at our club's gatherings and events, along with his lovely wife Linda and their adorable baby daughter Mila. Despite their bustling life in Singapore for the past 12 years, their commitment to our community knows no bounds!But wait, there's more! Jarrad has been making waves in the realm of social media, leveraging platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram to skyrocket his business's success. In just the past week, he reached an astounding 32,687 people through his posts!
How does he do it? With just 30 minutes a day dedicated to crafting engaging content. Jarrad firmly believes that our club can tap into this powerful tool to connect with potential future members. His advice? Target active volunteers, especially those in the 35-65 age range, who are likely to be on Facebook. Let's give them a reason to join the Applecross Rotary family!
Jarrad's secret sauce? Informative, inspiring, and insightful content that showcases what Rotary and our club are all about. And authenticity is key—our own members should take center stage in front of the camera, sharing our club's story in short, impactful videos.
Are we ready to rise to the challenge Jarrad has laid before us? Let's harness the power of social media to spread our message far and wide!
A little background on Jarrad: With a First Class Honours degree in Finance from Curtin University and years of experience in the financial sector, he's built a thriving business in Singapore, earning accolades like the Leading Adviser for Pan-Asia in Wealth Building 2023. And let's not forget his philanthropic endeavors, including his involvement with Rotary and his dedication to causes like supporting young people with Cystic Fibrosis.
Jarrad, thank you for inspiring us to reach new heights and for your unwavering commitment to making a difference in the world!

Disclosure: I have known Jarrad since he came to Curtin on a full scholarship in 2005. He had already become a volunteer to help others live better lives, in this case, young people with Cystic Fibrosis (sadly there are no old people with CF). He expanded his philanthropic experience by becoming a member of Rotary in 2009, created a very successful fundraiser at the Old Fremantle Jail (Convicts for a Cause) and was named a Paul Harris Fellow in 2011, one the youngest people in WA to ever receive this honour. The same year he was named a Citizen of the Year in WA.
