This week I spent most of my time executing the research that I have been doing for the past couple of weeks. I am excited to finally have things coming together and hope that along the way local businesses and corporate organizations become passionate about Visions. I also feel that a lot of us are becoming burnt out and this Thanksgiving break will be a good time for the staff to re-coup and get excited for the end of the semester, including the final days of Indiegogo and our end of the semester party. I really enjoyed my time at Cucalorus and learned a lot. As far as finishing up the spreadsheet and dividing the contacts, this was relatively simple since all of the data was laid out in the excel document. Personalizing emails and mailouts also did not take very long at all. I am glad my team contributed to personalizing the emails. It will also get easier for them to contact their businesses directly if they go in person as a follow-up. In the Development and Hospitality meeting we organized the letters to make it easier to send out. We also discussed the Indiegogo party on December 4th. In the AD meeting we discussed our departmental work and what we need done from each department. Currently I am trying to figure out which email I will be sending out sponsorship packets from.
