Marketing Team Responsibilities The marketing team is the brains behind outreach, collaborations, social media, and more! Like all the other teams in BxB Central, the team is small, but also extremely effective. There are currently around 6 team members, but that number fluctuates depending on where volunteers are needed most urgently. Because our marketing is still in an experimental stage, there are countless marketing tactics that Bit by Bit can explore as long as we have someone who is willing to put the time and effort into researching and pursuing those avenues. Creating content for our social media and growing our following Creating and maintaining contact lists Outreach to professionals, schools, and more Conducting market research for services to determine the direction our branches should take Increasing number and diversity of signups by continuing to promote our programs and events Forging partnerships with other organizations with similar goals/missions to collaborate on events, programs, etc. Making graphics for our social media, website, and other platforms Team Co-Lead Responsibilities Although leading a team is often a complex and difficult process, there are a few key responsibilities that we focus on. Team co-leads have a large say in the direction of their team, so their largest responsibility is setting long-term goals and organizing members so they can achieve those goals. From there, the goals should be broken down into understandable tasks that are delegated to each team member to carry out effectively. Team co-leads should also be checking in with members on progress updates and communicating with other leadership constantly. Other responsibilities: Recruit and train new members for each team Keep team organized and directed towards a set goal Manage meetings and administrative work Attend weekly leadership meetings to give updates and discuss how things can be improved Have weekly meetings to update the team on progress, and make announcements, assign tasks, and discuss future goals
