Hello group,

A few of us met over lunch today to kick off the 2012 planning process. Good things in the works. This year is going to rock. I will have meeting notes up tomorrow. For now, I wanted to extend an open invite to participate in the branding process.

As I mentioned before, White Haired Man Design agreed to contribute time and materials towards branding. Michael Galligan will be working with us, and walking thru their branding process. I have done this process before and been very pleased with the results. 

At a high level, Michael does one-on-one interviews and a couple group interviews. This gives him an understanding of our culture, goals, et cetera. He then comes up with some concepts. After some back and forth with us, one concept is selected. White Haired Man Design then refines the concept into the final brand and logo.

The branding kick-off call will be tomorrow at 3 pm. If you are interested in participating in this call or future calls, please respond to this thread. I will do my best to schedule calls so that everyone interested can participate.

Regards and good night,

Wolfgang

Wolf, I have to be a buzzkill, but I am pretty certain that I will be in the air for that window. I do wish to be a part of the process, but the time doesn't fit for me.

Hello Kyle,

Safe flight. You provided quite a bit to Michael over email this past weekend. Should he need anything further, I will get in touch to coordinate another call.

Have you presented yet?

I did, it went over well. More quietly than I expected, but well all the same.
