Thanks for the response Ricky, it is greatly appreciated.
I understand the flat approach and team members having many hats, it often works but given the widespread concern amongst the community regarding marketing it begs the question whether having a trough and through marketeer solely focussed on marketing might help. Having someone as social/digital lead would be great.
As I don’t know the backgrounds of everyone who has to wear the marketing hat please do correct me if there is someone you would class as a through and through marketeer who works on marketing, but based on the “many hats” approach I am assuming not.
Marketing is one of those things that takes a certain type of person, much like it takes a certain type of person to be a developer or a CEO. A developer could double up and drive the marketing sure, but they’re a developer at heart and will never be as good at marketing as a marketeer would be, same vice versa. With this in mind, taking on a dedicated Marketing Manager could yield better results?
Again, please correct me if there is someone who’s background is solely marketing, I think you guys are doing an amazing job across the board and thank you for everything you’re doing, it is appreciated by the community but without a true marketeer we need to accept the limitations placed on marketing.
Is taking on such a role within the foundation something that can be pushed through CPS or is this intended for P-Reps only? Is there anything the community can do to help with this besides from having a marketing P-Rep?
Thanks again!
