Why isn't this hitting the meetups?

[Lord Xar]

I have yet to see anything mention in my meetups regarding this 5million need from Ron Paul himself, by feb 5th.

I think the big issue will be getting the word out.

[colecrowe]

bump. absolutely. very important.


We cannot do the same things we did with MLK. There was a huge lack of orginization and effort.

With this, we need to make sure, IMMEDIATELY, with great urgency, that certain things get taken care of:

1. MOST IMPORTANT! Make it an EVENT for every meetup group. This never got figured out last time and it must be done--the results could be great, and it would be so easy, it seems: Every meetup coordinator and group needs to be emailed or notified somehow of this, and then it must be made AN EVENT for every meetup group--that way it is front and center and people can RSVP for it and post about it. This was done for like maybe a quarter of the meetups on Dec. 16th. So HOW do we make sure every coordinator/leader gets this message?

-----There has to be an administrator or someone that can send a blanket message to every meetup leader, right?

2. the Nov. 5th, Dec. 16th, Dec. 31st, and Jan. 21st lists get ONE email NOW, and ONE email early in the morning of Feb 1st. TWO EMAILS ONLY. But we must do this. The subject line must be good and it must link to a site with great videos, etc.

3. the Myspace people need to get ONE bulletin NOW with the link to the sight AND A VIDEO, and then ONE bulletin on the day of Feb 1st. Facebook people need to be told and it needs to be made an event on Facebook.

Why can't we automatically email all meetups at once? Why is this so hard?

QFT

Why does NOBODY here, out of the thousands of us, have any clue about this?

Nor at daily paul as far as i know.

Well, I just posted reminders with the two Meetups to which I belong. :D

I'll be making it an event for ours, too. But why can't we make sure every leader knows, gets it out there, and makes it an event? How do we email every one of them?

[tommyzDad]

Doh! I didn't make it an actual Event--I just posted a message.

I'll fix that right now. :eek:

[McDermit]

where'd the request come from? this is the first i'm hearing of it.

[colecrowe]

Important: this still only gets about one third of the meetups. This is not good enough, though it sure will help.

*******

Tell every group to BE SURE to make the Feb. 1st moneybomb an EVENT! So that way people can RSVP for it and its front and center and it can be commented on, etc.


I was just browsing around ronpaulmeetup.com looking for a way to mass contact the meetups about the Feb 1st moneybomb when I noticed a page called "meetup alliance". This alliance consists of 333 meetup groups and 36782 members. It provides an e-mail address that can be used to contact the organizers, who could in turn contact all the meetup groups in this alliance.


here is the alliance address - http://www.meetupalliance.com/RonPaul2008



the e-mail to the alliance directors - RPMeetupAlliance@gmail.com


This seems like it would be an effective way to contact about 1/3 of the all the meetup members and notify them about Feb 1st.

*******

update: I sent this to the meetup alliance coordinator--so a THIRD of the meetups might get taken care of. Waiting to here back. How are we going to get the rest of them?

Hi, Thanks in advance for your time. I have a suggestion for something I think is very important, and could have big results with little effort. Could you please send an email to every group leader telling them to make the Feb. 1st, 51st Anniversary money bomb an EVENT, and to put the url in the event description: PaulFamilyValues.com. So, don't just put it on their calendar or message people about it, but be sure to make it an EVENT that people will see front and center, they can RSVP for, comment on an talk about, etc.

And please tell them to spread the youtube video and post it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcuDazE1T_U

Thanks very much,
Cole

PS, If I'm not mistaken, you're able to get a hold of about 1/3 of the meetups. Is there any way to easily get a hold of the rest?

Here is the answer:

Go to the following thread now please: Post meetup groups that HAVE the feb 1st money bomb on calendar: (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?p=1098776#post1098776)


STICKY THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

This thread will be for posting the links to the ron paul meetup groups that HAVE the feb 1st money bomb on their calendar AND have sent out at least ONE message to the newsletter email so it can be seen on the "message board" for that specific meetup group.

What is needed to do
1. Sign up, suggest the meetup event and make sure it gets posted on the calendar AND a message sent out to ALL members of that specific ron paul meetup group.

2. Post the link to the actual event page for EACH ron paul meetup group that has it on the calendar IN this thread so people will know to search for and locate OTHER meetup groups to JOIN, get the date on the calendar and email ALL members of that group.

I will be posting a complete master list of ALL event links for every meetup group that gets posted as well so we can keep track of them all. Join ron paul meetup groups with tons of members to help get the word to spread faster or hit the smaller lesser known ones. They all have active members who need to be made aware of the feb 1st money bomb day.

This is the easiest way to see who is willing to do some of the work to reach those meetup groups that need to be contacted. I will happily organize and weed out any dupes in this list. Keep me busy everyone!!!!! Each meetup group could potentially help raise tens of thousands a piece just by association so lets not assume everyone in each meetup group knows about this next money bomb.

To get started go to http://ronpaul.meetup.com (http://ronpaul.meetup.com/) and locate at least 10 ron paul meetup groups and join them and complete the 2 steps mentioned above.
