We need to act like insurgents. Our target is that other open source stack. I'd say the most obvious tactic would be to colocate our events rather than attempting to create a primary draw. On the marketing front, our best bet is to get our customers and or users to be our advocates. This involves us actually reaching out and helping them do this with an orchestrated campaign to bring broader awareness. @rUv ________________________________________ From: Chip Childers [[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: Monday, April 14, 2014 11:39 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]>; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Barriers to awareness On Mon, Apr 14, 2014 at 10:05:27PM +1000, Kristoffer Sheather @ CloudCentral wrote: You can't convince a man about that which he is not incented to believe.

As I'm down to attend, the guy rings asking about Pointgreen and if we want to exhibit/sponsor the show. I politely decline, but then ask would the show not benefit from say a 'Cloudstack' presentation, to which the response is 'they'll have to pay'. I'd explain this is Apache Open Source community offering, but the guy wont budge, rules are rules, even though the benefit to the audience could be significant. Question is, how do you educate folks, especially in the Enterprise market, if forums like this are closed due to cost?
