==== Completed ====


* 9-10 : breakfast, introductions, orientation
* Knowledge transfer from Red Hat Brand folks
* 10-noonish : marketing plan, short term and long term strategies, lifecycle
* Brand strategy brainstorm yielded lots of useful clarifying-of-thought as well as action items.
* noonish : lunch
* Entry points to Fedora - are they clear, simple, potential calls to action? Discussion on how to make these calls-to-action useful, especially to audiences that we haven't reached well in the past. ([[User:rbergero | Robyn]] wonders - do we have any documentation or a way we are going to turn this discussion into actually doing something moving forwards?)

* 3-4 : F12 postmortem and documentation
* 4-5:30 : revisit marketing plan, strategy
* 5:30-6 : go over plan for the rest of the week, revise as needed
* 6 : dinner


===Day 2 (Sunday, March 14)===
==== Action items ====
'''Brand book.''' We can go two ways on this - if we have enough people we'll split into two teams and pursue both.


Option 1: Working on resources, guidelines, templates, slogans, texts and examples for people creating Fedora marketing materials - drawing from [[Logo]] and [[Legal:Trademark guidelines]], etc. as content sources.
* mchua: turn brainstorm into tickets in the proper queues, and do a first push aimed at getting new contributors to pick those tickets up.
* spevack: write a blog post clarifying thoughts/plan on translating Marketing deliverables (this is a long-term goal). (rbergero has sent mail to spevack)
* spevack: add permanent Marketing meeting agenda item for web referral optimization (10 minutes every other meeting) and start a dialogue with the Websites team on how to go about this. (rbergero has sent mail to spevack)
* <s>rbergeron: brand book kickoff --> post f13 press push</s> Ticket [https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/107 #107].


Option 2: Something [http://darkmattermatters.com/2009/07/29/sharing-your-brand-story-and-heres-ours/ like this] - drawing from [[User:Sankarshan/FedoraHandbook]], [[Category:Picture book]], [[Foundations]], etc. as content sources.
=== Day 3: Monday ===


Rahul Sundaram is sending a vision draft to the marketing list.
* [http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-fad/2010-03-15/fedora-fad.2010-03-15-13.15.html Morning/afternoon logs] - worked on the plans for [[Red Hat Summit 2010]], the new community-created modular design of our [[Press kit]] - including starting the [[F13 press kit]] - and a [[Social networking]] strategy. The [[Identigator]] project started.

Deliverable: Brand Book v.1.0 (available freely online, CC-BY, in remixable format, of course). I'd like everyone to be able to go home from the FAD on Tuesday with a printed copy - even if that means "laserjet printer + staples. [[User:Mchua|Mel Chua]] 06:22, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
==== Completed ====


Immediate use cases: I'm going to visit a class at Allegheny College that's doing a unit on open source marketing (yep, this is new) right after the FAD; I'd like to be able to bring the book to them and have them analyze/critique/improve it.

* <s>Robyn & Poelstra sync up on new schedule items for the Marketing team.</s> ''Mchua - can you forward email or document which schedule items you discussed with poelcat?''
* lunch, wherein we leave campus and, while eating, or around the same time, try to find passerby who don't know about Fedora to compare some of our design options and give us feedback on the (very rough, at this point) work
* <s>Get the press kit modules centrally wikified with links and a master vision.</s> Created tickets [https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/104 #104] and [https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/105 #105], assigned to [[User:wonderer | Henrik]].
* after-lunch to 4pm : writing sprint 2
* <s>Keep up with scheduled marketing deliverables that feed into the press kit.</s> -- This is ongoing; tickets for all Marketing Deliverables are already in Trac.
* 4pm : pause for feedback round 2 (either among ourselves, or if we feel the need, going out to find more people)

See action items from [http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-classroom/2009-11-10/fedora-classroom.2009-11-10-20.36.html Kara's "how to monitor PR for a release"] class
 
Possible activities:
 
* Fotoshooting for press-photos and picturebook
* writing some press texts, backgrounder and press-kit
* putting together some kind of marketing plan
 
 
===Business===
The list below is just the collection of items we will discuss about and does not say anything about the time or order they're discussed about.
 
* F12 - what did we do there
* F13 - how far we are
** Start of release cycle
** Alpha
** Beta
** GA
** Start of release cycle
* upcoming releases
* measurement
* build up an press and picture archive
* everything else
 
=> goal: have a big picture of a possible marketing plan we could use during Fedora cycles.
 
===Ideas===
 
* storytelling
* what is open source marketing?
* events we should go to (as Ambassadors as well)?
** marketing conferences
** RH Summit (Boston)
* FI articles brainstorming
** idea: each article should be tagged with at least one of the four Foundations.
** Fedora-contributions-to-upstream profile(s)
** user stories
 
===Questions===
Maybe there are questions who want to be answered... collect them.
 
** RH Marketing:
*** How do you plan new marketing campains?
*** how was the workflow on the campaign on [product xyz]?
*** how works an international campaign? local departments? centralized?
 
==== Sideline ====
* How about something like a conference-Package, T-Shirt or basecap or some other kind of "reminder" of that event? ... maybe there are some RH Backpacks (max carring around some nice ones ;-) ) or other bags laying around in some office with some cool nice tiny black notebooks and some pens with laserpointer or so in it <- makes a nice package ?! 
* make some pictures for the picturebook (photoshooting -> theme)
 
===Fun===
 
depends on where we are (e.g. springbreak, bikeweek, etc.)
 
===Workshops===
* how to write press releases (see day 4)
* overview over PR in Opensource (talk from [[User:wonderer|Henrik Heigl]] ) - also on day 4.
