**** Definitely worth LOPSA's time and effort<br />

**** Could offer a free webinar as a promo to bring in new members<br />
*** Direct Member Communication (Lopsagram/LOPSA Live)<br />
**** Communications Committee needs to expand<br />
**** What is the value of LOPSA Live?<br />
***** Maybe move to a Quarterly schedule for LOPSA Live<br />
***** Communicate via Lopsagram in between the LOPSA Lives<br />
*** Evangelist Kit<br />
**** Inexpensive materials for potential members (brochures, etc.)<br />
** What's out-dated?<br />
***LOPSA Podcast/On the Road<br />

*** Hosting<br />
**** Didn't end up working out, put this aside for now<br />
**** '''Bennett''' will look up information on Google Apps/Email and write something up<br />
*** BaseCamp<br />
