[FOSS4G2016] Fwd: Press list 2015

[Marc Vloemans]

Till

We need to discuss how we are going to work with Mailchimp account as mentioned below and the list in there

A bit surprising that this comes up, while Gert Jan and I are searching for tools to do mail blasts. 

Vriendelijke groet,
Marc Vloemans

> Dear Marc, 
> 
> Seoul team released news or announcements mainly through 4 channels, OSGeo mailing lists(discuss and announce list), MailChimp FOSS4G account, social medias and media partners. 
> 
> Seoul team took over the MailChimp FOSS4G account from Portland team and added FOSS4G Seoul attendees email addresses there. I also handed over that MailChimp account info to Till Adams. It’s the most comprehensive and biggest list that you can use. 
> 
> Also we’ve paid much attention to Facebook and Twitter. I still believe that Facebook is one of the most efficient way to reach out to newcomers who don’t know much about FOSS4G. There are lots of people who willingly share FOSS4G 2016 news with friends at Facebook. Twitter is nice, however I’m not sure whether Twitter is effective way to reach out to newcomers. 
> 
> I’d like to share Seoul team’s experiences here.  
> 
> 1. We tried to create buzz around FOSS4G and let the people know that, however small that might be. Small news was shared through FB or Twitter and bigger news was shared through main mailing lists. 
> 
> 2. We tried to be interactive especially when we used Facebook or Twitter. Social medias are interactive by nature!
> 
> 3. We tried to post news our announcements regularly to remind people there’s FOSS4G conference. 
> 
> Hope this help you.

> Kind regards,

>> Dear Sanghee,
>> 
>> We are about to send out the CfP FOSS4G2016 next week.
>> 
>> Could you provide me/us (LOC FOSS4G2016) with your 2015-press list. I assume it is an accumulation of contacts assembled over consecutive conferences in xls or like wise format, so we can add our own too.
>> 
>> In case you have any suggestions, do's-don'ts, please share with us.
>> 
>> Thank you in advance for your help.
>> 
>> Kind regards, Marc Vloemans
