This page is for brainstorming about how to put together a membership package, including perks for financial supports.

Concept

To provide a package of information, promotional material and, optionally, merchandise for new members by tying delivery of a membership package to the process of signing up and/or donating to OSGeo.

The objective is to:

  • Help members have enough information/material to maintain a consistent message about OSGeo
  • Build the OSGeo brand and visibility using a few simple methods/tools

Membership

  • OSGeo email address (currently available when you register on osgeo.org)

Sponsorship / Donation

  • Business cards
  • Shirt

Old notes

Being refactored into above....

These are some basic ideas of things that OSGeo could do or offer for a small fee (cost recovery +). The goal is not to make large amounts of revenue, but to provide some 'perks' to encourage members and to build our brand.

  1. Business Cards - Provide business cards with OSGeo and related contact info. Optionally have a dual-sided card that can have the sponsors contact info. on the opposite side.
  2. Shirts - Provide a couple options for shirts of varying quality/style.
