Scope
We're working to define what the Marketing Team is responsible for and how we can best work to market Ubuntu.
In the past, the responsibilities of the team have been defined as:
- Provide a unified front to enable the proliferation of the Ubuntu distribution, inclusive of all marketing activities
- Creatively advocate and positively promote the Ubuntu distribution on behalf of the Ubuntu community
- Understand and respond to the requirements of individuals interested in migrating to the Ubuntu distribution, make it easier for others to do so.
- Understand the need to find zero-cost and cost-effective awareness strategies that allow for unlimited scalability
- Provide resources that enable positive and accurate press coverage with a long reach
- Develop long-standing stakeholder relationships that encourage open dialogue and deeper understanding
- Remain approachable by all members of the general public, regardless of technical ability
- Remain an 'open' team, understanding that a perfect marketing team recognises that all users are potential advocates
- Be prepared to change and mould to the waves of market forces whilst resolute in our founding principles
- Respect and incorporate the views of the one another, the FOSS and Ubuntu community, Canonical Ltd and all users
- Ensure professionalism and Quality of Service at all times
Getting Involved
The marketing team is always looking for more people to help out. We have huge plans to bring the wonder of Ubuntu to the world and the more people helping to do that the faster we can make progress.
