Hey Theresa,

Thanks so much for the offer. We passed around a piece of paper and  
began to create a list of organizations we thought would be best to  
call.

There is also a google document that lists a number of organizations  
that the outreach comm org working group put together early on. I have  
posted this document to this list but will also send to you directly.

If you could report back and let us know what org's you have called so  
we don't repeat, that would be fantastic.



Best,
-- 
Daniel.

>> Hey everyone. This is a quick draft of how I would approach cold-calling an
>> organization to ask them to participate. But most importantly, don't read a
>> script while your talking to a real person.
>>
>> "Hi, my name is ___________. I'm a volunteer with Occupy Boston and I'm
>> calling because we're organizing a Unity Rally to take place at Copley
>> Square on December 3rd. Individuals and organizations from the 99% will
>> gather in Copley to call attention to our most important issues and foster
>> unity *among all the groups* that are consistently abused by our current
>> system. Today I am calling you because we would love to have [Name of
>> Organization] come and educate us on the issues that you address in your
>> work. Does this sound like something your organization might be interested
>> in?"
>>
>> if No: "Okay, thank you for your time and please let anyone know who you
>> think may be interested in joining us".
>>
>> if Yes: "Great! The event will take place at 1pm in Copley Square on
>> December 3rd. Before 1pm, however, there will be a number of great events
>> taking place throughout the city of Boston hosted by groups that are
>> drawing attention to their own issues. Then we will all meet at Copley by
>> 1pm to celebrate our diversity and unity as part of the 99%. I encourage
>> you to check out our website, occupyunite.eventbrite.com, to find out about
>> the events taking place before one o'clock to see if your organization
>> would want to join one of them. You are also encouraged to start your own."

>> cheers
