This is the thread to develop the brochure-type "General
Information" brochure. I have uploaded a sample brochure with the
content. We should first re-read the content, and once we have
agreed on the content, proofed the content and formatted the
content, we can move on to completing the rest of the remaining 3
versions of this brochure.

The reason I started with the USLtr is that Tim says that he has a 
pressing need for this particular type of community brochure for an 
upcoming meeting/event.

Please have a look at the content and make any suggestions to
improve the text on this thread.

YES

I have some presentations coming up, starting in June.  Also, every
time I "chat up" someone about LibreOffice, all I can currently do is
give them a business card.  Maybe a DVD if I really get someone
hooked.  But if I had a few brochures in my case/bag that I take with
my 50% of the time, it would give them some physical "thing" with
information about LO to take home andmaybe show to the families.

There are places in libraries, and other locations, where you see 
brochures being displayed.  I would love to get a bunch of LO
brochures placed in these locations.  Since LO is a free
service/product it may be allowed there.  Half of the brochures are
for advertising for tourism locationsand businesses. But there are
some for other "things".

I would like to do an open "event" at thedowntown library branch to
talk about LibreOffice as a replacement for MSO.  There are a lot of
things I do not use LO for that might come up in such a
meeting/presentation, so it would take a lot of prep time before I
will do that type of open meeting.  The "suits" I want to do, as soon
as I get the materials needed so I can schedule it, is for several of
the local Kiwanis organizations.  I am part of the Kiwanis
organization already, so I just need to get my presentation scheduled
for one of their lunch meetings. LO will be the second topic I
presented to these "suits".  The only "problem" will be that half of
the men/women are over 50 and set in their ways.  I would love to do
a presentation to the younger Kiwanis "family" groups thatwould have
no issues to useLO instead of MSO.  They have not spent years at work
using MSO and does not want to learn a new system.

SO
I need marketing materials.  Brochures. Signs, Handouts. All of that 
type of thing.  I burn and print my own DVDs.  Now I have a printer
that can print 13 by 19 inch paper, if I can find it. It may be able
to print out 12 inch wide by 4 foot long sheets cut from roll paper.
Right now, I print out 11 by 17 inch tabloid/ledger size paper in
both the "standard" and cover stock weights of paper with that
printer. The signs are small, but not as small as a letter or A4 size
sheet.

SO
please help us edit the brochure content to make it ready for me, and 
others, to use. I print off dozens at atime, or as many as I can
print and fold, using my home/officeprinters, in the time I have to
do that task.  I have printed them off on white and pastel colored
paper stock and used a monochrome laser and/or an inkjet printer. It
all depends what group of people I hand the brochure to.  Full color,
text and paper, tends to go to the businesses, while monochrome
text/images tend to go to the people I "chat up" at various
non-business locations.


Let's get organized here :-) How about this: I'm making a list below,
you fill the status of each item and / or add a few more:

* brochure
* DVD/DVD sticker
* button/small banner/may be printed in a sticker
* T-shirt
* banner/poster

Let us know.
Cheers,
