The team really need to use this time before build season to get everything and anything PR and Media related out of the way!!
Please help us develop and execute a list of things to get done! Thank you!!!
- Tiffany
(NOTE: I'm not trying to say we don't do anything. We do a lot and most of us are extremely busy but build season is going to be 10x busier...)
---
To Do List (Deadline: December)
- Get in touch with Credit Suisse
- Get new sponsers (with bake sales out of the way, they're our only hope), Vivian has the list of the sponsers we want so we need to get started NOW. We should get the Society Women Engineers out of the way FIRST.
- Host seminars for prospective Engineers (school wide and NYC school wide) To raise $$ we can have a $2 admission fee or a donation at the end of the seminar according to how helpful they found it to be (ie pay $5 if you thought it was really helpful, pay $0 if you didn't). We will talk about schlorships related to FIRST and how to become a good candidate for engineering schools/programs.
- Make buttons (we have a ton of new button ideas and many more! We're planning to do a "Help us go to regionals! Goal: $5000, 20% of our proceeds will go to the American Breast Cancer Society ($1000)" Funds + Charity + Sponser!!
- Make a team flag (flashy, attractive, need I say more?)
- Make DIY awards for other teams (eg. the EVA AWARD Charlie got for being the best payload specialist!)
- Make/Order team uniforms (our current idea for now: cloaks + jumpers)
- New website layout! Add a splash of what the Fe Maidens are about!
Last but not least...
-ADVERTISE THE TEAM!!!
Make cool posters, tell your friends, show that we're a family, and show our fun side!!
If you guys have any other ideas or stuff we have to get down, COMMENT BELOW!!!
Wow, Tiff. You pretty much wrote down everything that we talked about.. good job. :) So.. this weekend I'm gonna be making some posters and whatnot so we can put them in the staircases.
ReplyDeleteWe also have to create a sponser book to help us gain more sponsers.
ReplyDeleteI can make banners for all smaller sponsers (eg Sponser Ad: Ghetto Truck) and we can have a rotating banner on our website that shows off them off. Pretty cool eh?
Unfortunately we have the business plan to do T_T. Pretty much its fill-in but the contuinity plan is insane. I might as well go into business.
ReplyDeleteSabina and I talked with the Society of Women Engineers at Columbia University today. I think we convinced them to come give a presentation at our school, as well as choose our school to choose students for shadow-an-engineer. :)
