Hello Gary,
I'm Charles Richardson and president of the Greer Mac User Group in Greer, South Carolina. I would love any suggestions that you can offer us on making our user group as effective and exciting as possible.
We have been planning our first meeting for 6 weeks. We have promoted our first meeting primarily by personal invitation. We have our group registered with Apple so we are waiting until our second meeting before Apple will officially recognize us. Our website is live with who we are and where we meet. We will post meeting content and updates to that after our first meeting and as well as our up coming schedule with meeting topics for the next year. We are currently at 28 members and growing. We are registering everyone at our first meeting with survey cards to have better idea of their interest and computing experience so that we taylor our sessions to meet and pass their expectations for the monthly meetings.
We had a "dress rehearsal" for our first night so that we could take the rough edges off the meeting and our presentation. We're using a digital projector with two 17" Powerbooks... one for back up with Keynote. We're giving away iWork at the end of the session from the registration cards that are turned in. One of our board members has created "the Member Dock" display that has our featured resource of the month... Robin William's book on OS X Tiger. The member dock will feature opportunities for anyone that would like to volunteer for service in the user group and it will also serve as place to give suggestions and ideas for the group.
We have a great relationship with our local Apple Solutions Consultant from CompUSA. He will be our featured presenter and he will recap all the annoucements from MacWorld and be available for anyone with questions regarding Apple and products.
So please if you have any suggestions we would love to hear them....
Charles Richardson
