Marketing Team Update – July 25, 2018

Our vision for the Marketing Team is to be a resource on strategy and content for other WordPress teams. We use our weekly slackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. meeting to focus on updates to the tasks that currently exist in Trello.

We meet in Slack every Wednesday morning at 8:00 a.m. Pacific Time as a catch up on our tasks. However, anyone can chat in our Slack channel about anything at any time.

Highlights

We are continuing to write case studies. There are a few that need approval and publishing so look for those next week on our Marketing Blog.

Last Week’s Stats

Since a majority of our work manifests itself in blog posts on our blog, here’s how we’re doing.

The top post last week was the WordPress News Survey. We’ve analyzed the results and hope to publish that this week.

We’re Here for You

If your team would like strategic advice or copywriting, please pingPing The act of sending a very small amount of data to an end point. Ping is used in computer science to illicit a response from a target server to test it’s connection. Ping is also a term used by Slack users to @ someone or send them a direct message (DM). Users might say something along the lines of “Ping me when the meeting starts.” either me (@gidgey on Slack) or @mcdwayne. We’ll set up 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. card and get to work.

Our meeting notes are here.
