Re: survey Friends of GNOME donors

At last, a topic that I can actually help with, rather than simply bike-shedding! I teach marketing research, so I feel able to comment with a fair degree of background knowledge. That said, there's nothing so tedious as a disagreement between experts (especially if they're academics). Number on

Re: survey Friends of GNOME donors

Stormy: I think the idea of a survey is a great idea. I think it might be good to also ask some questions that try to find out if the person has recommended Friends of GNOME to others, whether they mention Friends of GNOME when they give a GNOME-related presentation, etc. Such questions might h

survey Friends of GNOME donors

I went to a marketing session at a nonprofit workshop on Tuesday. One of the things the speaker recommended doing was survey donors every 12-18 months. Here's the over all guidelines she gave: 1. Know what you want to find out, such as awareness and brand recognition. 2. Use survey monkey 3. No o

Re: wgo pages

I'd like to make a different suggestion. Unfortunately, this is going to be long. Sorry about that. :-/ One way to think about wgo's content is by thinking in terms of Use Cases: What do people want when they visit wgo? Dave already covered the basic ones. But there's another way to look at i

I don't think it merits it's own top level page Would it make sense to just have links to it (maybe the badges) from Home, Get Involved and About? Stormy On Thu, May 21, 2009 at 8:31 AM, Paul Cutler wrote: > So let's talk about this for a second - when you look at the top level > navigatio

Re: wgo pages

So let's talk about this for a second - when you look at the top level navigation at the test site you have, from left to right: Home / Get Involved / Get Started / Take the Tour / About Should we be adding a new tab? "Donate?" I personally don't recommend "Support" - to me that always shouts "
