Hey hey hey, When Kickstarter goes live tonight, we want everyone to use this email template to cold-contact *media outlets, companies, and people*. Kickstarter relies on awareness of the campaign, so its up to all of us to spread the message. Along with contacting strangers, write your own personal emails to friends and families, telling them to spread the word and donate if they can. You can use this email as inspiration for that. The goal is to have every person on the team contact as many people as possible. 20 is a good goal, but more is always better. When you contact someone/something put it in the google sheet below: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fa6Implkt3XxZdR_UiIP_XwkzKS-SQDzDE0rr88zwBc/edit?usp=sharing TEMPLATE: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Dear _______] or [To Whom it May Concern], Boston University Rocket Propulsion Group, one of the most advanced amateur rocketry groups in the world, needs your help.
