PR meeting at 7:30pm

[Clay Ward]

Hey guys.

Chia, Jamie, Sherri and I met last wednesday to prepare for our beginning of June 3 Website Launch Party and PR Blitz.  We're meeting again tonight (outside the 1369 Coffee House in Central Square at 7:30pm) to continue the planning.

I'm realizing that we haven't had an Outreach meeting for a while since we're focusing on the PR launch.  So if ya'll would like to come to the PR planning meeting then you'd be welcome.

Projects that we're currently working on for the PR launch:

Press Release: Sherri, Jamie
Homepage Touchups: Chia
Launch Party Planning: Clay
Media List: ?
Launch Party Donations of food and beer: ?
Launch Party Food and Beer pickup: Elke
Sending Press Releases: ?

Hey Clay,

How was the meeting last night? I can take care of the media list and/
or sending press releases, if no one has agreed to yet. Do we have a
press release written already?

Hey, the meeting kindof fizzled, but Chia and I talked about the brand change that we're going to be making.  And I think that everyone knows what they're working on.  So hopefully this all comes together really soon. 

Sherri, Jamie, remember to give yourself time for a full rewrite after you've shown your rough draft to folks, ok?

Claudia, Awesome.  I've invited you to collaborate on a google doc that lists our media contacts.  Please add as many as you can (especially big blogs that write about relevant things.)  Also see if you can figure out if there are unique ways that we should approach each media source.  Finally, if you can come up with a couple of posts for our own blog that reference those blogs that we want to be listed on then that will kind of prime them to want to write about us.  I haven't done too much of that, but it's apparently how these things get done.  So if they're writing about things that might be of interest to our community then check in with me and we can go from there!

Chia, you're on the homepage adjustments already, I know.

I'm working on getting some logo designs together with Raj and Chia.  Anyone else want to offer one for "BuyItLikeYouMeanIt.org"?

And I can take over more of the Launch party preparations too.

Woo!

June 3rd is gonna be a real rush.
