5 Minutes to Promoting CiviCRM for Every User.
July 17, 2012, 12:25:04 am
I think CiviCRM is amazing, but the hype needs to get way bigger...it deserves way more than it is getting. So here is a section where I'm going to try to compile a semi-comprehensive list of ways that anyone can help market CiviCRM in just five minutes...Feel free to make additions in replies to this thread and I'll integrate them as appropriate into this initial post.

1. Like CiviCRM on Facebook.
      a. Share the CiviCRM page on your profile (click the settings icon on the CiviCRM page and you'll see a share option).
2. Thumbs up CiviCRM on StumbleUpon.
3. Pin CiviCRM on Pinterest. You can use my pin to repin it easily.
4. Follow CiviCRM on Twitter and occasionally retweet CiviCRM tweets.
5. Join the CiviCRM Group on LinkedIn.
6. Say you use this on Ohloh.

Okay, that is all I've got at the moment...What else folks?
Dave

How about getting the logo updated on the Facebook page?
I would also happily buy CiviCRM merch if it were available at reasonable cost: T-shirt/hoodie, hat, badge - that type of stuff.

Should we make a store on http://www.cafepress.com/ ? If no one from the core team wants to, just let me know and I will do it.

Upperholme - As far as I can tell they are using the current logo on the facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/civicrm?
Hershel - I think this is a great idea. I'd like to see some official support from the CiviCRM team behind it, I'm not sure with CiviCRM what the trademark status is on the name/logo?
