Marketing the PSF
We need to create more and more stable streams of revenue for the PSF. This page is intended to collect ideas of how to achieve that.
Some of the following ideas can be bundled, even if they target different groups. In the first step, we'd need to identify possible activities. In the second step, we'd need to look into taking those ideas and turning them into an action plan.
Attracting sponsor members
With the sponsor memberships, we're targeting companies, not so much individuals, so the options have to be attractive for companies
- Improve the PSF presentation on the python.org website
- Giving the sponsors more visible feedback about where their money is being spent
- Creating a high quality printed magazine style report of what the PSF did in the past year, with interviews, foundation reports, presentation of funded projects, etc.
- Sponsors could also get ads in such reports and we could distribute them at conferences.
Attracting donors
Donations are most often being made by individuals, so the options have to be attractive for individual donors. Most of our donors currently spend between 50-200 USD per donation.
- Giving the donors more visible feedback about where their money is being spent
- Creating a web/PDF report of what the PSF did in the past year, with interviews, foundation reports, presentation of funded projects, etc.
