Homebrew Boot Camp Thread!

Hey everyone! Just think - it was just a little over a week ago that we met in a conference room to discuss “hey, here’s what’s going on with our clubs and what we’re trying to do!”

I’m still going through the data and notes from the club talks I attended (I think we had 5 talks and I made 3 of them)

But I would also love to keep the discussion running here!

A few other things:

  • I’m producing a report that looks through every thing we discussed to find trends and figure out skills/boxes/kits we can focus on for maximal impact.
  • Three things that are very clear-
    • Be Dynamic - keep promoting, talking, putting things out there, interacting with your members. You can’t just be “active” when your club has a meeting!
    • Be On Time - don’t dally with your communications to folks! (For example - in a perfect world I would have had this post out on Monday!)
    • Break jobs into tinier chunks and hand them off to people! “Many hands make light work” - this theme kept reappearing all over the place
  • We’re going to get the first Club Meeting in a Box lesson out to folks!
  • Lastly, if anyone is willing to help test my new “Meeting Organizer” tool - please let me know. (You can see an example meeting here - Homebrew Club Taplist )

Also my periodic reminder: please update your club info! American Homebrewers Association

I saw your demo of the Meeting Organizer, I’d like to test it out.
