Java User Groups let me speak when nobody knew who I was.
This week we start paying for their pizza.
The JobRunr JUG Fund is live. We put at least €150 toward the food and drinks at your Java User Group meetup.
What we ask back:
🍕 one line from the host, "pizza's on JobRunr tonight"
🍕 our sponsor slide during the intro, about 20 seconds
🍕 one photo we may reshare
What we do not ask:
❌ no attendee list, no emails, no lead scanning
❌ no JobRunr employee on your stage
❌ no say in your agenda or your speakers
I am a developer. I know exactly how a "community sponsorship" usually feels, and how fast we notice it turns into a lead form. We tried to build the opposite of that.
Organizers, the form takes 30 seconds to fill in: https://lnkd.in/eNVBEkDJ
And if you go to a JUG, poke your organizer 😉
