Update on Mobile Giving

[Bharat Kapoor <3 kapoor gmail com>]

Hi Guys

Here is a quick update on the status of Mobile Giving:

• We have a 3 month period to run pilot and validate if this tool works for us - Cost $300

Campaigns:

• Get read to go by end of Month
• Use Gnome 2.3 release as the launching pad for this campaign
• Focus on users not just developers to donate
• Make a list of conferences that we can target
• BUT - We dont always want to solicit evelopesr
• How can we get our developers to spread the message - get ur folks to TRY Gnome or friends to TRY Gnome
• What other options do we have

Marketing in General:

• We can hire some Business School interns (I can supervise Univ of Chicago & North Western interns) - and they can be had for Free to develop Marketing strategy as well as campaigns.
• Get some creative idea
• Someone to do the work
  

What Next:

• Need volunteer(s) - who can help with any aspect of this project esp:
• Coming up with catchy phrases for campaigns
• Developing banners & places to post them
• Any one with a wild idea :)

Take a look at the product, make any wild suggestions.
