    Hello Team - Thank you again for the meeting this month.  I appreciated all of the information.  

    We discussed what is now being called the 90 Minds Friday The 13th Strategic Happy Hour which is tentatively scheduled for Friday, August 13th. 

    In collaboration with the Education, Events, and Membership Committee, we have decided to conduct a pre-survey (open-ended responses) focused on MOTM 2022 and Membership Benefits.  We are shooting for limited and focused questions on each subject.  The draft questions are below for your review and consideration.  Please post feedback as you see fit. 

    I would like to incentivize attendance and participation - so I am thinking about a prize drawing for those in attendance.   I would love your thoughts on that as well.  Thanks!

    I still think that we should poll the community on what their thoughts are about end-users becoming members.

    Perhaps:  "Do you think that adding end-users to 90Minds would be a good way to grow membership?" 

    Other than that I think all of the questions look good.

    Happy Hour
    Friday the 13th
    Strategic Planning

    Should we put the strategic planning portion in a different  session? 


    It almost seems as if we would want the sequence - perhaps an initial strategic planning meeting of the board which they come up with several ideas - from there they create  (a) Member survey, (b) Board strategic planning meeting to review and fine tune, (c) Some type of presentation to the group - perhaps at MOTM 2022 prior to finalizing

    Some of the MOTM questions seem like we probably surveyed the same concepts coming out of 2020 meeting

    There are other broad questions as well:
    - Does the group operate as a break/fix - stop in when you need something - recruit and incent the top Sage 100 minds - maybe even Sage engineering?
    - Does the group compete with Sage U, Sage City or try to create a different experience?
    - Does the group become more proactive and meet regularly with Sage execs and attempt to influence the Sage 100 direction?
    - Does the group take on other complimentary ERP systems ( and allocate $$ to do so ) ?  This is much much more than just opening a new forum or adding a session at MOTM

    Other questions I'd be curious about: 
    - Should we expand to other Sage solutions?
    - Should we expand to other non-Sage solutions?
    - Should we expand even if that requires us to spend member dues to do so?
