Reach out to partners for collaboration

[fmvilas]

We should be reaching out to partners who will want to collaborate with us on the announcement.

To be clear, we should be offering them to collaborate on the following areas:

• Social networks (LinkedIn, Twitter, Mastodon, Tik Tok, etc.)
• Blog posts
• Live streams & Podcasts
• Email marketing (Newsletters)

Ideally, they should be taking care of everything themselves but if they can't we can provide them with posts they can publish on social networks and some arts.

The following is a list of the partner companies we're gonna reach out to:

• Postman (Fran reached out) ✅
• IBM (Lukasz reached out)
• Solace (Lukasz reached out)
• Smartbear (Lukasz reached out) ✅
• Sngular (Lukasz reached out) ✅
• Bump.sh (Fran reached out) ✅
• Red Hat (Lukasz: 0 good contacts that I can reach. They are no longer sponsors)
• Svix (Lukasz reached out) ✅
• Slack (Lukasz: 0 good contacts that I can reach. I only know they are not good keeping up with AsyncAPI, still on v1 afaik)
• Ably
• Oracle (Lukasz reached out)
• WSO2 (Lukasz reached out)
• Gravitee (Lukasz reached out) ✅
• HiveMQ (Lukasz reached out) ✅

@hguerrero I no longer have "responsive" contact in RedHat. Basically no response when I reach out to talk about renewal of sponsorship. Can you help out with ☝🏼 topic?

[derberg]

@dret maybe you would be interested hosting someone from AsyncAPI TSC in your podcast to talk about v3?

[dret]

sure, that's a great topic. i reached out to @jonaslagoni a little while ago because i had the same idea.

[hguerrero]

with ☝🏼 topic?

Send me the info you have, and I'll double-check the status.

[fmvilas]

@dret if you end up hosting @jonaslagoni (or someone else), let me know please. I'm coordinating marketing efforts with @thulieblack and we can include it in our campaign.

[derberg]

@hguerrero email you mean?

[dret]

i wouldn't mind to get some alternative pointers, @fmvilas, if that's ok. ideally i'd like to get something recorded/published before paris. thanks!

[hguerrero]

@hguerrero email you mean?

Yes, emails or names, whatever you have. You can send it over message to keep them from public.

[derberg]

@dret I can join you, we are anyway already in contact in regards to having a specs booth at APIDays

@hguerrero wrote you DM in AsyncAPI Slack with all details on what we currently need and also who I was in touch in the past and I tried to renew sponsorship with

@frankkilcommins following up on what we discussed at the call. You can have a look at this issue, and share with marketing folks. Lemme know if you need some single point of contact for your marketing folks, like a person that for example on 6.12 will send, to whoever needs it, link to official tweet or linkedin post

[fmvilas]

@derberg if we're not reaching out to anyone else, feel free to close the issue.

Svix confirmed they will help with tweeting
