Hi everyone,

There's a lot of great content on our marketing wiki, but it can be a
bit overwhelming for new contributors. So I've made a "first steps"
guide here:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/First_Steps

All feedback welcome! If people are happy with it, we can put it as the
first link on https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing and spread
it around social media to (hopefully) bring more people in to the
Marketing project.


Thanks for doing this. Always nice to give some direction to new-comers.

The list looks good and not complicated. Nice!

Perhaps letting new comers know that helping out does not necessarily
mean a large contribution of time, and that any amount of
contribution, no matter how much or little time involved is most
welcomed. Many people think that you have to promise hours of time but
really, even if all it involves is about 5 minutes/day or 20 minutes
to help proof messages or fix wiki pages, then this is also welcomed.

One other aspect that I usually think really important is that people
should have fun contributing ... it is not a job, but volunteered
time. If it becomes a "chore" helping out and no fun, then they could
try another section with LibreOffice and see if they could contribute
elsewhere -- it is amazing how one's talents can be put to good use on
the project!

Cheers,

Marc
