This Slogging thread by Ellen, Linh, David, Amy, Natasha, Daria and Zaeem Shoaib occurred in HackerNoon's official #general channel, and has been edited for readability. This 'thready' likely doesn't need much explanation, however, here's a brief  one: Ellen announced to all that she would be away for a couple of days and ended up 'working' anyway. Completely on her own accord. She decided to have some drinks and take selfies in the awesome hat she got for X-mas from the wonderful boss humans. The selfies were posted on FB. Linh was amused by what she saw on the 'face of books' and shared it with the class. Below is how marketing concepts are born (sometimes)!! Have a wonderful weekend y'all! Most importantly, the hat is awesome, get it and other HackerNoon merch here!! shop.hackernoon.com Ellen Jan 14, 2022, 2:12 AM will be away from Friday January 14, 2022 at 5AM EST until Tuesday January 18 at 10:30AM 2022 EST. So if you have something urgent to tell me, do it tonight or wait till next week. Thank you! ❤ Uz. If you have anything urgent during the above outlined period, you may also text me anytime. :) ellenBrain 👍 2 🙌 2 👍 3 💚 2 🙌 1 👍 1 Linh Jan 18, 2022, 3:36 PM Welcome back little star ⭐ :savage-joy: :savage-joy: 6 🌟 2 :hn: 2 💚 3 ❤ 2 :deployparrot: 1 Ellen Jan 18, 2022, 4:48 PM Thank you very much for the hat and the stickers!!

Looking forward to it! Ellen Jan 19, 2022, 7:10 PM So will there be a page for this or will we include the photos directly in the store catalog? Because this could be a funny marketing project. Linh Jan 19, 2022, 7:13 PM I think for quick access can just create a notion page just to organize everything in one place. But I like the idea of a marketing campaign Daria Natasha what do we think? :deployparrot: 3 Ellen Jan 19, 2022, 7:14 PM We could have so many lolz with it, Limarc can present as Verse CEO in HN gear. I can schedule it for a less busy time, but I was just curious since we have this collection of photos David posted. Wanted to clarify the use case. Natasha Jan 20, 2022, 9:45 AM Got started on the drive folder here: [Secret Link] Daria let's schedule like 1-2 posts / week using these photos for, like, 3 months? 😄 can get interns to help adding copy and CTA? Daria /Kien maybe your intern to make a video / reel out of all these? (One of those that's just a supercut of like, 50 photos with a banging soundtrack) Kien can you pretty please add ALL of these to unsplash? (or ask an intern to do it?) 🙂 Natasha Jan 20, 2022, 9:52 AM As for the process for briefing tasks like this to the marketing team, let's try a simple list in Notion? have created one here, with an example brief, feel free to edit! [Secret Link] Daria Jan 20, 2022, 11:10 AM I’m up for a campaign! Scheduling those beauties to be shared on socials for the next 3 months Daria Jan 20, 2022, 11:12 AM Also, an idea for next All-Hands for people to wear any HackerNoon merch they own to take a screenshot to be shared later on socials :hn: 💡 3 Ellen Jan 20, 2022, 8:54 PM Yeah something like this would be good, I think it would be cool to do a blog post as well, I will schedule it in sometime next month or something. It will give everyone a chance to do photoshoots. Plus the All Hands idea is brilliant but there should be a review process of the photo. Linh Jan 20, 2022, 8:57 PM lol if only the internet at large takes itself as seriously as ellen’d like =)) 😂 2 Zaeem Shoaib Jan 21, 2022, 2:16 AM I need that hat more than the others...you know...because... Join the Slogging revolution here. 💚 1 Here are some extra photos.. I don't know who else to show them to so y'all can see them. 💚 1
