Kelly, I've been trying to gather all the inquiries for a potential Chicago group.
I notice that this discussion board has links for people to contact organizers in an area, or reach their site. How does this work, it seems like it would streamline my rudimentary efforts.
Hi Mary, and thanks for your interest in kicking off a user group! There are a bunch of ways you can get started. Definitely check out these tips Nicole created for user group organizers:
I will also add a link to this thread to the user group listing in this article. And I bet people will notice this post and comment here if they're interested! You can reach me at kmeeker@articulate.com if you have any follow-up questions. Thanks again!
Hi Mary! This is a forum thread, actually! So this thread is posted in the Storyline forums - anyone can see and jump in. You might want to start a new one, the same way you did this one, that has a title that invites people to jump into the conversation and let you know if they're interested.
In addition Mary, if you did not realize this was a public forum thread, please know that your signature has been included in your e-mail replies and you are welcome to pop in and edit if needed. Simply click 'View' in your e-mail :)
I filled out the survey and I am awaiting further direction. I wouldn't mind helping to organize future meetings, but that will have to be down the road.
Would it be appropriate to share an eLearning opportunity with this group for the Hoffman Estates, IL area? CDK Global is growing and looking for creative instructional designers to join our team. Please let me know the best way to share this information with the group.
No problem Charmagne. Please keep in mind that replying to the forums via e-mail attaches your signature. You are welcome to pop in and edit if needed.
I don't know if this particular group is - but you may want to connect with those users by accessing the "contact me" button on their profiles to reach out directly.
We are (re)organizing a group for the Chicago area! We're in the initial stages and getting organized, but we would definitely like to start gathering names of those who would like to be contacted with more information.
Just as an FYI if you respond here (or via email) your information will be public in the forum thread. If you'd prefer it only go direct to Sherrill you can message her using the "contact me" button on her profile.

Thanks Kelly, I have already done the checklist, posts, gathered names and
sent surveys to interested ones to determine their expectations.
We are now at the point of determining where and when to meet.
Is there an easy way to do this other than rounds and rounds of emails? I
notice some of the locations have a site listed? How does this work.

Hi Mary,
I sent you an email with more details. Here's a link for people interested specifically in a Chicago area group. You can use that to get people to sign up. I also gave you permission to access the list.

Thanks to all at Articulate for your help!
Well I am interested so please keep me posted.
I would like to be added to the list.
Hi Helena! Be sure that you check out the form that Tom mentioned above. Here is the link as well.
