Culminis
promotes collaboration of efforts to improve
User Groups, IT professionals, and their
communities. The following letter was
submitted to Culminis by Bruce Handley, the
President of the
Rocky Mountain Windows Technology User Group,
and the Culminis team would like to share
what Mr. Handley had to say:
"In late June I gave a talk to the Boulder
Marketing Group about the care and feeding
of User Groups in general. Their interest
was marketing to user group members. In
general I feel that a good mix of vendors
(as long as we get good technical content)
and member presentations is most beneficial.
Sponsors also provide more than half of our
budget at
RMWTUG.
In my real life, my company sells membership
and conference
|
registration
software packages so we talked about how a good
tracking system can make you job easier
(particularly if it is a volunteer effort)
"I focused on my user group,
RMWTUG,
another
Culminis
user group,
ASNP,
a “business contact group”, the
Internet Chamber of Commerce,
and briefly described what
Culminis
is
doing (or plans to do).
"I put both my slides and the ASNP/ Culminis
slides on our membership software site,
http://clientminder.us/.
