As part of the Partner Program, a marketing budget is now available for 2014. This initiative was born during last Dalesbridge Sprint and was part of the latest discussions and meetings of the CiviCRM Marketing Committee.
We thought that the best approach was to define a “Budget Revision Group” that will be managing and following up all the budget requests.
The Budget Revision Group for the first half of 2014 is formed by
- Alejandro Salgado (iXiam)
- Jamie Novick (Compucorp)
- Andrew Hunt (Aghstrategies)
The goal is to keep it simple, at least this first 6 months of 2014 until we have some feedback and some experience with the first requests. Then we will be able to modify or improve the process.
