Welcome to the Sourcerers.io 'Open Source Operations' project. This repository represents an initiative designed to document and catalogue the various processes conducted by the Sourcerers.io team, a strategic advising consultancy with expertise in branding and marketing. While direct contributions are tentatively limited to team members, we freely encourage suggestions and feedback from all.
Github was chosen as a home for this project precisely due to the ease with which this work can be replicated and line-edited. All initialized documents are or will be prepared in spell-and-grammar-correcting clients before being formatted into markdown according to the styles guide. Each file will live in one of the initialized folders, described below.
Our initial directories are modeled off of the service types we provide as a team. Below they are listed alongside brief descriptions of their content scope.
- Community Management - Instructions sets and primers around online community building, including chat moderation, live streaming, bounty campaign building, product support, and generally anything requiring end-user engagement.
- Marketing - Social media management practices and scheduling, search engine optimization techniques, branding guidelines, content creation and planning, and anything else intended to bring new eyes to our clients’ offerings.
- Operations & Administration - All material required to provide sourcing, hiring, contracting and payroll support for our clients.
- Strategy - All other high level policies and documentation influencing the advisory arm of Sourcerers.io.
Several additional root-level and many sub-directories are expected to be added in the future.
