New mailing list system (on trial); our annual conference
I’m experimenting with MailChimp for doing our larger mailings (the English language ones).
We need a system to mail out frequently and to deliver our messages within minutes and this might be the one for us.
The first mailing to test capacity was yesterday’s to our correspondents list.
Today we’ll mail something to the entire English list.
Work has begun on promoting our upcoming 2nd annual Global Solidarity Conference, to be held in Istanbul on 18-20 November 2011.
Following my meetings last week in Turkey we have set the date and venue (the headquarters of the oil workers’ union Petrol-Is).
This has now been added as an event on UnionBook and Facebook, posted as a tweet by myself and by LabourStart, posted to the wall of LabourStart’s Facebook group, mailed out as a save-the-date mailing to our correspondents, and mentioned to unions in other countries in the region (Georgia, Egypt, etc.).
