- === Problems / issues within Marketing
=== (jflory7,
16:59:00)
- IDEA: It is unclear
what kind of tasks Marketing is working on during a release cycle
and how to participate. They are not clearly defined in many places
(and some places that have info are outdated). (jflory7,
16:59:32)
- IDEA: The tasks that
are highly visible can be intimidating to a new contributor (e.g.
contributing to the release announcement or creating talking points
for editions and spins of Fedora, which requires a lot of cross-list
communication and knowledge of where to go to find people in
Fedora). (jflory7,
17:00:20)
- IDEA: Many of the types
of contributors in marketing come by in cycles. Some people will
contribute for one, maybe two releases, and then they might drop
off. Retainment is an issue, both with membership and
leadership. (jflory7,
17:01:15)
- IDEA: The actual
on-boarding steps are simple and don't provide much of a chance for
engagement. The on-boarding steps have someone introduce themselves
on the mailing list, say hello in a meeting, and then that's it. It
would be helpful to have more opportunities to engage new members
with "easyfix" types of tasks. Or low-hanging fruit, whichever you
prefer. (jflory7,
17:02:51)
- IDEA: Because of the
difficulty of engaging new members, it's difficult for Marketing to
focus on non-essential tasks other than release announcements and
talking points. If there were more communication about to contribute
ideas, marketing could push to be more innovative to work with
different media or campaigns to engage with new waves of
users. (jflory7,
17:03:47)
- === Brainstorming ways to help resolve these
problems === (jflory7,
17:05:02)
- http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Videos
(FranciscoD,
17:05:06)
- IDEA: Working more
closely with other groups like Join SIG to engage newcomers in
Marketing with other areas in the project to see if there are other
areas they might be interested in (community, development,
etc.) (jflory7,
17:24:42)
- IDEA: Each subproject
could have a month to highlight awesome things they do (meskarune) -
example tasks could be reaching out to project leads to gather those
points and write an article (jflory7,
17:25:12)
- IDEA: Improvements to
the on-boarding process beyond an introduction on the mailing list
and meeting (jflory7,
17:27:31)
- IDEA: Better
communicating existing contacts in media and how to convey Fedora
news to them in a professional but curt way (as a newcomer or
intermediate task??) (jflory7,
17:28:33)
- IDEA: Better ways to
communicate our social media presence to engage newcomers to then
engage with us on social platforms? (jflory7,
17:31:18)
- IDEA: Breaking down the
"Tasks and roles" wiki page into better communicated roles and
smaller tasks (low-hanging fruit) to engage new contributors
(jflory7,
17:32:17)
- IDEA: "How I use
Fedora" talking points / articles... make them into videos,
interviews, footage, example work that people could share on their
channels or platforms (jflory7,
17:35:18)
- IDEA: Eventually create
a badge for members of the FAS group (jflory7,
17:36:11)
- IDEA: Podcasting as a
maybe lower barrier way of doing things like interviews (see: Chris
Ward's interviews with Fedora contributors on SoundCloud)
(jflory7,
17:41:35)
- ACTION: jflory7 Take
the discussion points from today's meeting, lay out the earlier
problems, expand on solutions, and try to offer mock implementations
in the Marketing ticket (jflory7,
17:42:34)
- Out of time for covering more tickets, but
today's discussion was deep and for the longer-term analysis for
growth and retainment strategies of the Marketing sub-project
(jflory7,
17:46:26)
- Community Blog (jflory7, 17:46:44)
- How This Works: There is a quick blast of
information about what was published in the past week with some
metrics, followed by posts that are being drafted. After the
information blast, the floor is opened for any Community
Blog-related discussion. Here we go! (jflory7,
