Committee
Issues |
|
á
Clay in Ed; á
Briefly discussed if this position is
still needed and what Clay Fest might want to do to for the broader
community. á
Publicity; á
Discussed if it was needed to break
the Publicity ChairÕs job into two since á
it seems like a
very big time commitment for one person. Bulk
Mailing; Finding that spam filters are a problem getting our
E postcard delivered.
Sponsorship;
Looking for a person to embrace this chair position with
enthusiasm.
Gallery Only drop outs;
Too many participants are dropping at the last minute.
Sales Area;
Sync the adding machines ( a zero's issue) and the Visa machines
for
Accuracy
Discussed the
possibility of trying the Square sales system to create a pop
for busy time
Scavenger Hunt;
We discussed the pros and cons of a fun activity for our customers as
a way
to engage them. |
Decided to ask for input at the next
Local Clay meeting this month. Chair will keep continue as is and
report back as to how much time it does take and how it might be divided. Chair will look into Mailchimp and
Constant Contact as a way to address problem. Karen is in contact with a few
interested persons. At the next meeting, we can decide on
how to tighten the refund policy. Tabled but will discuss later again. Tabled the idea due to complexity
involved. |
