NOTE: What's coming up constitutes marketing on my part, but I'm going to ask just this one time.
Is there a way to purchase advertising space on the OCLUG web page to advertise some of my courses that I plan on starting to teach locally next month here in town? Currently, I have the following 1-day Git course scheduled for next month: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/introduction-to-git-version-control-1-day-tickets-16939612838?aff=es2 I suspect most OCLUG members know that I spend most of my time doing Linux- and open source-related training and, until now, I've spent a majority of my time teaching for other vendors (Red Hat among others), but I want to start focusing on delivering more local courses of my own, here in the Ottawa area. My particular interest is in short, *focused* courses -- one or two days if possible, simply because most of the clients I've chatted with over the years say they just don't have the time to send people to 3/4/5-day classes, particularly if there's only *part* of the course they want. (That is a *ridiculously* common complaint about training courses these days.) Along with short courses, my other interest is offering courses that aren't crazy, stupid expensive. I don't need to be greedy, I just want to make a decent living teaching locally. Anyway, I was wondering if there is some kind of mechanism by which I can purchase advertising space on the OCLUG site somewhere to advertise upcoming courses. As another option, I can offer discounts to anyone who is a member of OCLUG. Lots of possibilities, I'm sure. In any event, thoughts? I have a number of short courses I'm working on that I want to start putting on the schedule, and I'm open to any way to get the word out, and I have no problem paying for advertising space. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
