90p Admin

What I propose we do to recruit: a. First = propose in the admin group to clear any geographic issues b. Second = mention to senior group - manage this somewhat like the United Nations -- half dozen active members have veto rights for any reason. c. Potential members get a six month trial - we stick them in a private MAS90 (or whatever tech area) d. After six months if they're still around vote on them up or out e. Most people will not remain active for six months (everyone likes the thought of being in a group - fewer participate). First year goal (by 12/31/11) = 3 new MAS 90 based firms (which means we probably should scout for 10) Target Characteristics of New Members: a. # Years = 5+ b. Product focus = MAS 90 or MAS 200 c. Under 10 people total d. Emphasis on firms that have niches in areas that we might want - SMI, E-Business, BOI e. Sage partner (as opposed to end user)

Makes sense. Try not to make this more complicated than it has to be Sent from my iPad 2

Agreed. Basically make sure that there's no obvious issue (step a and b) then create a secure area where the potential member can participate but not read our past postings. To me that is the trickiest part. I'd really like an isolation booth of sorts where potential members interact purely on technical issues before we see if they're sticking around (remaining active).
