Attend our first meeting of the year, August 3 at 3 p.m.! You'll learn what a GALILEO ambassador is, what our main goals for the year are, and have the chance to ask questions about our efforts. This is a relatively new group/committee within GALILEO mainly focused on marketing and engagement. (Additional meetings for those interested will be held later in August, as well. Chose below.)
Purpose
To assist in boosting brand awareness and use of GALILEO, with a particular focus on the state’s primary school students, teachers and media specialists. In addition to being brand ambassadors who promote GALILEO, group members will identify marketing and awareness campaigns, advise on branding, partnerships, promotional items and creatives, as well as special events, trainings or webinars. The group will also serve as the selection committee for the GALILEO Ambassador Award. Overall creation of campaigns, creatives, etc. is the responsibility of GALILEO staff.
Primary Responsibilities
Act as a brand ambassador for GALILEO and its programs
Act as the organizing and selection committee for the GALILEO Ambassador Award
Review and advise on ongoing branding and marketing plans for GALILEO
Identify and review partnership opportunities for GALILEO
Identify and promote opportunities for user-generated content for GALILEO
Assist in planning of special events, such as speakers series, marketing boot camps, etc.
Share ideas for marketing collateral (swag) for special giveaways, conferences, etc.
Primary Objectives
-- Increase use of GALILEO in the K-12 classroom
-- Boost general brand awareness of GALILEO
-- Expand use of GALILEO across Georgia
Qualifications
If you’re a critical thinker who loves planning out big ideas, and you’re excited about the use of GALILEO in communities and classrooms and want to be the first to get new swag, then this group could be for you. Each member must be an employee, parent, student or patron of a GALILEO-member library. (If you like marketing and have experience with it, that’s also a plus; it’s more important that you’re a fan of GALILEO!)
Meetings
Meetings are held virtually at least 4 times a year in August, November, February and May, with additional tasks to be completed throughout the year.
