When you or your club makes an order from the Toastmasters Store, be sure to order yourself extra Advanced Manuals.

After getting my ACB I decided to get 4 manuals. When I had an opportunity to give an impromptu speech or one at short notice, I could easily fit it into one of the 10 projects within the 4 manuals

If I had only ordered a couple, then I would have missed opportunities to fill in some of the projects and may have "wasted" some good speeches.

For example, I was at a new club meeting, they had a speaker cancel and I was able to use an "Interpersonal Communication" manual speech to role-play trying to obtain a mortgage (the club was a company known for its home loans).

Remember, always try and fit a speech into a manual project and get it evaluated.
