Ricardo Ortizcazarin gave a very well-received marketing presentation; he described advertising in terms of identifying personal goals, morals and priorities and then using those dots to point to your customers and gain their patronage. There were many good lessons for business and life: we thank him for sharing his time and insight.
Some highlights of the general meeting:
- Renewed push to publish a newsletter on a regular schedule
- Advance scheduling and member notification of board meeting times and locations
- Updated paper and e-mail mailing lists (many members have expressed a desire receive the newsletter in digital-only format).
- Commitment to getting the financial side of things back on track by April’s general meeting.
- We have 2 vacant member at large positions as well as the vice chair open. A timeline is not yet established, but nominations and special elections are receiving some attention.
- Proposal to go to quarterly, Saturday meetings instead of monthly midweek.
