This is how we run our meetings. ## Firstly, welcome. We’re so glad to have you as a part of the Marketing Team. **Our coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. vision for the Marketing Team is to be the go-to resource for strategy and content for other WordPress teams.** We have several marketing reps and plan to run the meetings with direction and purpose. To that end, we propose the following. ## Here’s our format. * We meet on **[Wednesdays at 8:00 am Pacific](https://make.wordpress.org/meetings/)( 15:00 UTC in Standard, 16:00 in Daylight Savings).** * The lead will ask if someone would like to take notes. * The lead will set the agenda for this week’s discussion which will be a TrelloTrello Project management system using the concepts of boards and cards to organize tasks in a sane way. This is what the make.wordpress.com/marketing team uses for example: [https://trello.com/b/8UGHVBu8/wp-marketing.](https://trello.com/b/8UGHVBu8/wp-marketing) card. * Please hold any off-topic comments to the end. * Goal is to work on one single project, with artifacts delivered in GDocs, following the [Trello Board](https://trello.com/wordpressmarketing1). * The last 15 minutes we open it up for wishlist ideas and general popcorn comments. * Wishlist tasks get a card in the [subgroup’s Trello board](https://trello.com/wordpressmarketing1).
