Marketing and Advertising for VCF East 2021!
by Jeffrey Brace 08 Sep '21

Hello everyone! So I need your help with marketing and advertising for VCF East 2021. Adam handles the Facebook groups, Twitter and Instagram, but we need help in other areas. We want members who are "part of the community" in different mailing lists and other online groups to help us spread the word. That means groups that you post to frequently and the members of that group are familiar with you as a member of that group. If you are interested in helping, then please let me know where you can post so that I can see if we already have that area covered. I created a Google Sheet to keep track of where I have been posting the newest ads: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EzZFryhrGyb4BSc8IR6-4zyq_Da3s1cq4-O… For example, I have already covered: Lemon64.com LemonAmiga.com Bil Herd's The Coriolis Effect Weekly Live YouTube Stream. Here is our 8 1/2 x 11 flyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GsmXLA2vIsBFWTcmMJLZfq1OQlxmShBU/view?usp=… ========================================= Jeff Brace Vice President & Board Member Vintage Computer Festival East Show-runner Vintage Computer Federation is a 501c3 charity http://www.vcfed.org/ jeffrey(a)vcfed.org

You'll want this to start: https://www.ebay.com/itm/114973090205 "Digicard Classroom Network Shared Resource Controller - Apple II Network" then add some Apple2s. Shipping is tough pill to swallow to US, but these are rare and very cool. -andy
