Good morning Mike, you should put a "Join us" or "Get involved" sticker on every copy or something like that, so they are marked from TDF. And put a "Mach mit" and a "TDF-das Zuhause von LibreOffice"-Flyer in it. -- Grüße k-j Member of TheDocumentFoundation https://www.documentfoundation.org/governance/members/ https://de.libreoffice.org https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: marketing+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

Hi everyone, I suggest placing the magazines in cool, eclectic art/design gift shops and book shops around the world. Get the artist / designer community hooked on to Libre Office. They pay quite a bit to use their creative softwares and materials - Libre Office would be a nice change for them, especially if it's well-designed. Maybe future editions can feature a fold-out art poster. Cheers, B.

Perhaps simply getting a few copies sent to each of our native lang teams (where an English magazine would make sense), and leaving it to them how to best put them to good use?

[libreoffice-marketing] Linux Magazine LibreOffice special -- copies to give away
Hi everyone, Sparkhaus Media, a publisher in Germany that produces various Linux and FOSS-related magazines, has just released a special edition about LibreOffice: http://www.sparkhaus-shop.com/magazines/special-editions/eh32068.html A few of us at The Document Foundation contributed some articles, and they will be available later under Creative Commons for our blog, and for anyone else to use, update, translate etc. Meanwhile, I have 150 printed copies of the magazine, for events, schools, libraries etc. So far I have given some to a library here in Munich, and plan to contact other libraries. If anyone has other ideas for distributing the magazines, get in touch and we can discuss further, and I can send you some! I think we should try to get the magazines into the hands of new users, and people who aren't aware of LibreOffice. (Instead of, say, just handing them out at Linux/FOSS events, where some people may take them as freebies, but never really look into them.) -- Mike Saunders, Marketing & PR The Document Foundation -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: marketing+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
