Hi, my name is Alexandros Karagiannakis and I live in Athens, Greece. My Fedora Account System (FAS) username is alekaragiannakis, and my IRC nick is also alekaragiannakis.
I learned about the Fedora Marketing team through the Greek Fedora Ambassadors Pierros Papadeas and Konstantinos Antonakoglou and am interested in joining because I'm studying Business Administration so i'm familiar with the subject and i really want to start contributing to Fedora community. Also I've been a Fedora user for years and i've been experienced of a few open source events and conferences here in Greece.
This is the first FOSS and Marketing project I have worked on!
My skills, which I hope to utilize in Fedora Marketing, include:
Marketing Skills: My studies on Business Administration which include Marketing, Management and Financial literacy.
Other Skills: Εase of socialization and social contacts in general, persuasion and devotion, things I deem important for the promotion of the product and the ideas of the fedora community.
I'd also like to learn through my involvement with the community, like learning about areas that interest me and would like to work on, such as programming, in which my knowledge is not developed.
When I'm not working on Fedora, I am studying at the Technological Educational Institute of Larissa in Greece.
A couple of goals I have for the Fedora Project are to help promote Fedora in Greece in cooperation with the Greek Fedora community, and also to help develop the local community through educating the public about Fedora. I would also like to see innovations and the expansion of marketing to happen in Fedora.
I am wondering about new ways of promoting Fedora.
Please help me get started!
Alexandros Karagiannakis.

Hi Alex!
I want everyone to know that Alex has been a valuable Fedora Enthusiast during many past events in Greece and I am very happy that he decided to join the Marketing Team :)
I am sure he has many things to give to the Marketing Team and Greek team and I can't wait for his contributions!
Welcome aboard Alex! It is nice to have you here!

Welcome, Alex! Apologies for the belated reply. :) I see that Robyn's already sponsored you for the Marketing FAS group, so you're all set - have you found a project to get started with in Marketing yet?
One thing we need to be thinking a lot about in the next few weeks is what our outreach strategy is going to be for international press - what materials do we need to get translated and into the hands of local ambassadors, and how will that happen? What journalists should we talk to in which regions, and who can step up to contact them?
Cheers,
