A student that is working with Sugar Labs from Sloan has offered to post on their internal lists a help wanted ad for us. We are also recruiting an Intern team from Babson we hope. My theory is if we make it easy to get involved we'll see other opportunities to recruit student volunteers. So: What do We Want Marketing Volunteers to Contribute? Here is a list to start please continue the brainstorming. Sugar on a Stick - Needs collateral to support us as we ask companies to donate computers and USBs. Write White papers Create and distribute a survey for various market segments to find out what they feel are the most compelling pieces of our value proposition. Create one or more elevator pitches to help people describe the product. Create collateral to give out at conferences aimed at various market segments such as teachers, developers, funders Create boilerplate to help people include Sugarizing educational activities in grants to create new educational activities Create boilerplate to help people apply for grants to implement and study Sugar Create a baseline "sales demo" people can give at conferences. Clearly people would customize for different situations but having a starting place would empower more people to feel comfortable promoting Sugar themselves. Create a Marketing Plan Start on a Marketing and Advertising and community development budget that we can use as a baseline to apply for funding.  I'm sure it will have to be modified to meet the requirements of the grantor but again having a baseline to iterate from would be incredibly valuable. This is an invitation to brainstorm please add your thoughts then we can trim and combine and put up a wiki page. Thanks!
