It has been a busy 6 months in the Social Media Team. The SMT meets nearly daily in our Glip group to keep up on what is going on in Joomla and how to best get that information out there. As needed we have micro meeting discussions on various topics or I have one on one meetups with Sandra, Hans, or Davide. 

Also, the SMT works with marketing continuously but specifically implementing the "Be Joomla Loud and Proud" campaign since it's inception and development. 

Since we do a post/s during the business week and often on the weekends we work amoungst ourselves to cover for each other and get our team work done. With our team split on time zones if there is big news to be shared someone is around. 

For 2018 the SMT requested a HootSuite membership to help with many factors. We got it but they changed the team pricing and well... HootSuite if you hear us we would love you as a sponsor/partner as we haven't the budget to do your new team pricing. 

And onward with the stats!
