ACEU Volunteer needed - Sponsorship Co-ordinator

2012-07-15 Thread Nick Burch

Hi All

The website is almost up (more on that in another email!), one thing we 
now need to do is finalise the sponsorship details. For that, we need a 
volunteer, or perhaps two. (I'm told really needs a single voice, as 
sponsors don't tend to get on well with asking a mailing list and getting 
more than one answer...)


So, does anyone have the spare cycles for this?

You'll probably all be glad to hear that the role doesn't mean having to 
do everything about sponsorship. Melissa, our EA, has some cycles to help 
out on the admin side. The foundation fundraising team can advise, as can 
this list (for public/general things only - it's a public list!). Steve 
from OpenBastion is available to help too, especially for sponsors who 
might be interested in helping both ACEU and ACNA.


What does it entail?
* Working with the team above to produce the sponsor prospectus
* Answering questions from potential sponsors (there's one or two
  already), with help from the team
* Putting the details into the website (I have the instructions for this,
  doesn't look too bad)

Anyone able to take this on?

Thanks
Nick

I'm happy to help with a draft if that would move it forward. This is one of 
the areas where we cannot afford to let our late schedule for EU hold us up.

regards
 Steve
