I updated https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marketing_Team with initial
process/procedure/ownership details.

I suggest all members contribute to the effort to flesh out the details :)

Apparently this is inaccurate, but the email from google makes clear that
the outcomes were: conservancy approved the request, denied the request, or
did not respond to the request and in that case passed it back to google,
who could then approve or deny it. So I guess its accurate to say the
latter happened and google denied it.

Conservancy asked SLOBs (and Adam forwarded the full email to me, Sean and
Caryl) to work out what SL wants to do, how SL wants to manage account
logistics, and what marketing strategy SL plans to implement.  Once SL is
ready to proceed, we let Tony know and he'll look into what (if any)
subaccounts they can create for individual Conservancy member projects.

What I want to do is obtain the $10,000 per month AdWords credit that
Google offers to nonprofits and use to run adwords campaigns seeking new
members to help with development and translation.

Account logistics are handled by google accounts. Mine is
d.crossl...@gmail.com.

Do I need to get SLOB to pass a motion for Tony to do this?

Me and samson and sean have expressed keen interest in marketing so let's
start with us 3.

Until I have access I can't document how it works but I commit to doing so
promptly when access is in place.

I agree to supervise Samson since he is a minor for a few more months.

Is there strong consensus which people (multiple people, not a single
person) should manage this and all associated passwords +
responsibilities?  With this "process/procedure/ownership" fully documented
in a very public place, so SL doesn't end up with lost passwords and
orphaned/locked accounts, as has happened frequently to date?

Its not about taking over the account, its about getting additional
admin access in order to set up Sugar Labs's adwords account.

Apparently Conservancy denied this request.

I do not know how to get access to a Google-sponsored adwords account.

Adam, can you ask Conservancy folks how we get access to a
Google-sponsored adwords account?

I'm confused, I thought Adam was going to liaise with SFC on that?

We can't take over their account.
