Hi,
Yesterday we had to cancel the marketing irc chat session on the spot,
due to the very low number of participants (3, including me). The
conversation was interesting but was going much beyond the agenda
itself.
While this is disappointing, it's about the third time this happens.
Interestingly enough, I'm always thinking that there's something wrong
with the schedule of the chat session. So the last three sessions were
scheduled at different times of the day. It does not seem to help or to
affect the participants' turnout in any way.
I would be interested to know why this is the case. Below are a few
possible factors:
- many people are confused by IRC -> should we restart to do marketing
chats on the phone? I seem to remember the turnout was higher on the
phone but I might be wrong.
- people are shy - IRC is supposedly letting many people sit in the
background and not have to express themselves in public.
- language barrier?
- the discussion topics are not interesting
- the information about the chat session is not spread around enough
What do you think ? What do you propose?
Looking forward to your input,
Charles.
