dear @reef-recruitment , the @reef-comms team is analyzing the effectiveness of the different ways of inviting people to the public presentation. Please find here the analysis of the last public presentation list. It seems the top 2 most effective ways are via the Ads on Habitat and Participation and Through a friend (incl Through a friend in social media). The least effective way the flyers. Let us know what do you think.

Thanks a lot @Janet!
Personally I wouldn’t over-interpret the data, because I think there is an important network effect that is not represented in the data. So if somebody says “through a friend”, how did that friend learn about The Reef? Basically we don’t know.
Regarding the flyers, it’s true that there’s not a lot of people who find us this way, but there’s a couple who do. I find this very important, because it’s one of the best ways to reach out to people outside of our networks, which is always good in view of aspiration to reach as much diversity as possible. Are you planning to print some more?
On the same topic: would you be willing to look into whether it would be possible to print a new set of posters? This is again because it would allow us to reach another public. If you do, I would personally recommend to go for posters that are as small as possible (maybe even just A4), because the ones from the previous batch are so big that it was often quite difficult to find space for them.
Thanks again for everything!

Hello, after the sad news about some assoc members (who seemed very interested) leaving, I was thinking about how we could advertise more the reef (I’ve left some small leaflets in two neighboring buildings to my office, but this seems like throwing a bottle in the sea). Anyway, I remembered the magazine that every commune distributes to households and maybe it would be an idea to advertise the reef in the magazine of Jette? Maybe this has already been discussed and I am late and out of place with this message. Please disregard it if so 
These are the prices for the magazine of Ixelles, for intance (couldn’t find the ones of Jette). It is quite expensive, except for the one that says “interieur agenda”. In that case, I don’t know if it only refers to adverts that have to do with events.

Hi Maria
I understand the feeling, we all share it 
We did think about this for jette but then decided that it might not be the best idea for the neighborhood to hear about us before knowing us and having discussed with us, given the local climate of defiance we already sense…
But that could be discussed again maybe after we have done the event with the neighbours. And that might be a good idea already for other communes…
Maybe something to pick by @reef-external ?
