Contact Sponsors

[vsmart]

This is a list of potential sponsors! We don't need to contact all of them, it's just a pool.

Last sponsoring issue: https://github.com/clojurebridge-berlin/organization/issues/98

How to contact a sponsor!

• Pick a sponsor you'd like to contact from the list below, or other
• Write an email to contact them - it's best if you have a personal contact there, rather than emailing generic hello@company
• You can draft your own email, or use one of our templates
• Make sure to include a link to our sponsor tiers in your email.
• In the email, put clojurebridgeberlin@gmail.com in cc
• Update this list: box ticked like [x] means the company has been contacted. Also put your name after the company name in -- or comment underneath the issue - that way we can track which companies we're in touch with.

confirmed sponsors

• CircleCI -- platinum
• Mapbox -- gold
• Zimpler -- tshirts

I opened an issue for t-shirt sponsorship as well https://github.com/clojurebridge-berlin/clojurebridge-berlin.github.io/issues/53

[lislis]

I made a PR to add a tshirt sponsorship to the website https://github.com/clojurebridge-berlin/clojurebridge-berlin.github.io/pull/55 Let me know what you think

[vsmart]

@saskali @daiyi Could you contact NextJournal?

[saskali]

I want to talk to them tomorrow and will let you know what they say!

[lislis]

Gonna write zimpler an email later today

[daiyi]

^Jean-Louis from zimpler is going to be at the clojure berlin meetup this week if you'd like to speak in-person!

[lislis]

@daiyi yeah, we had a brief exchange via email. He will look at the zimpler budget and we will talk details on Wednesday :)

[daiyi]

I reached out to folks at Thoughtworks and Soundcloud :ok_hand: (waiting to hear back!) (and these are big companies so I assume others should also try to make contact if they can?)

[vsmart]

@daiyi sure! It's worth mentioning that they have sponsored us in the past, and thank them for that.

[lislis]

So, Jean-Louis confirmed that zimpler will pay for all the tshirts!! We can have t-shirts!! It would be easiest to just forward them the invoice from the print shop (print shop should accept cc). If possible they would also like some t-shirts for themselves, so we can order some extras

[vsmart]

we need to :thought_balloon: who to match with what maybe circle ci ==> lunch catering mabpox ==> coaches + installfest catering

[vsmart]

Judging from the list of sponsors I saw in #168 (circle, mapbox, cognitect, zimpler, nextjournal) we have enough sponsors and can close this issue.

Awesome work y'all 👏 👏 👏 💸 💸 💸
