Join the 30DCMarketers Team

[BillVick]

I chatted briefly with Charles and he is wisely waiting until Ed and the 30DC crew announce how teams will communicate, etc. Since Ed already introduced us to Google Groups, Skype, Twitter and Facebook my guess is they will be part of the solution. I've tried to follow everybody here via Twitter and personally I hesitate to use the hastags of #30DCMarketers as I don't want the rest of my twitter followers privy to our information or communications.

In anticipation of this years August launch I have updated my personal page to show my existing web sites, etc. at BillVick.com and welcome feedback.

I just noticed in the 30DC Facebook page, under checklist, that the suggested number of team members is 7. I think we are over that number and my question to Charles and the group is should we look at breaking down into two different groups (maybe along time zones) or muddle ahead as we are?

What do you all think?

Hi Charles, I would love to join your group if you'll have me. I'm a newbie to the 30dc and to IM and being on a team that has people to help guide me would be great. Kim

Actually, I like the idea of a larger group. More hints and help to go around. I did the 2007 30DC with a Facebook group of 20 or so people in January 2008, and it was great. We had a combination of veterans, newbies, fulltimers and part-timers.

Hi Gang,

For what it is worth, I am back from vacation. I will be catching up on the preseason I have missed. For those who tried to access google groups, you did it right, I just had to press the "accept" button. That has been accomplished and all is well there.

How are you all? Julie? Charles? Bill? I look forward to speaking with you all soon. Bill, I noticed your comment on the suggested amount of team members. Have you received any feed back yet?

Well, still unpacking so I will catch up with you all tomorrow!

Take care, Chris

Welcome back Chris. Caro just released a video on teams that speaks to the issue of number of team members (along with other points that really help) and based on what she says we should be looking at breaking down into smaller groups. She recommends 4-5 people per team.

I think teams with open and regular communications are a must to get the most out of the 30DC. Based on all that's been done by Charles, along with the steady flow of comments by Chris, I think we have the makings of two teams here, one led by Charles and one by Chris.

What do the rest of you feel and how do you see this? We need to make a decision this coming week. August 1 is just around the corner.

Good Morning!

There seems to be an issue as to how many people should be on a team for best results. Please continue to add comments regarding this as we are a TEAM!

Some weeks ago I started a google doc spreadsheet for our team roster, as of today, only Bill Vick and myself have added their name to the list. Please update the roster with your info, this will greatly help with knowing who is on the team. The link for the team roster is: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?k...HRUYwUUE&hl=en

The Challenge is only a few days away, let's get after it!!

Take care all, Chris

No one is checking out the roster or the group page or really adding to the forum! Oh what to do?!!
