Notes

1. User group follow-up
   1. Julia will send an email inviting attendees to Slack channel
   2. Group members will sign up to do individual outreach
   3. David will draft an email to attendees regarding membership
2. How can we drive revenue?
   1. One-time money is easier to get than recurring revenue
      1. Gather funds for specific objectives, e.g. VIVO in a Box
         1. Low buy-in (e.g. $1,000), higher amount gives you a seat at the table in terms of direction (e.g. $5,000)
   2. Membership: Reputation + open source, open access values
      1. Super membership - membership using more than one DuraSpace product pay more but have more influence, seats on boards, etc.
   3. Tiered service model
      1. Some services free, others at a cost
   4. Collecting user data
      1. Ask for info in order to download
