Is it OK to state that Mickaboo is currently $28K in the red (when seeking Pepsi grant clicks, etc.) or is that Need to Know Only info? -----Original Message----- From: Vincent J.

Hopefully Pam will be able to get that for you without building a space shuttle. Also, if there are any other non-financial metrics which you need and which Pam can't supply, let me know and I will see if I can create a query to get such information. Regarding "turned away" birds, that would almost certainly have to be a pretty rough estimate. I don't believe that we have installed policies and technical infrastructure to log requested (but not fulfilled) intakes in our database. Even if we have, I know that these were not in place as of mid-year, so you wouldn't have access to the whole year's estimate This is kind of a new idea so I am sure that we will have to work through a few rough spots. Thanks in advance to all who are contributing for your patience and cooperation. --VH (Vincent or Vinny but never Vince or Vinnie) -----Original Message----- From: media-advisors-bounces(a)mickaboo.org [mailto:media-advisors-bounces@mickaboo.org] On Behalf Of Patricia Blau Sent: Sunday, January 02, 2011 3:30 PM To: Mickaboo media advisor team Subject: Re: [Media-advisors] press release yes, eventually it would have occurred to me to ask for these! thanks Vinnie. p On Jan 2, 2011, at 3:11 PM, Vincent J.

Re: [Media-advisors] can we use this INSANITY for a press release/story?

Having an annual report is a good idea in any case. Allows donors to see where theiir money went. -----Original Message----- Date: Sunday, December 05, 2010 10:58:30 pm To: "Mickaboo media advisor team" <media-advisors(a)mickaboo.org> From: "Vincent J.

Hi again, We never seem to get this press release thing off of the ground; however, I have an idea that I would like you to consider. How about an end-of-year press release with some numbers for 2010? How many birds did we take in, how many got adopted, how much did we spend on vet bills, how much did we take in donations, how many veterinary hospital visits did we pay for, et al. We need to be judicious about what statistical information we give out, obviously, but we want it to have as much oomph as possible. If we want to release this promptly on 01 Jan 2011, the numbers might be preliminary estimates (most corporations take a few weeks to close out their books before releasing quarterly or annual numbers) but a New Year's Day release might also have the most impact. I think that such a press release should be summarized and linked to front and center on our web page to be sure that people who follow us will see it.
