Marketing Minute October 2024 Newsletter
Welcome to the AMA Austin Chapter's monthly email newsletter. Each newsletter will tell you about upcoming events, how to get involved, and recent marketing articles.
Hello AMA Austin Members and Friends,
As a new team of volunteers, our AMA Austin Board is on its way to finding our rhythm, cadence, and pace. We’ve recently celebrated a few promotions: President-Elect Aaron Rayner, VP of Membership Amanda Wood, Advisory Board Member Amy Kenly, and a new VP of Technology Jenaro Diaz.
Reflecting on our chapter goals, we are thrilled to celebrate two milestone achievements with you: filling 70% of our board positions and generating $10,000 in in-kind contributions. We’ll continue to track this month over month and celebrate with you. Our team is hard at work creating, executing, and tracking these campaigns, and we can’t do it without you, our members, and friends.
In the spirit of going the distance together, I invite you to join us at an upcoming event (if you dare! ☠️) These gatherings are designed to keep you ahead of industry trends and foster lasting relationships with other marketers.
To ensure you don't miss out, I encourage you to join us (or renew) by October 8th and carve out $30 on your membership 🎃 using the code "JoinAMA30." You’ll benefit from a discount and also secure your place in our dynamic community, which is eager to welcome and meet you.
Plus, volunteering with AMA Austin is your opportunity to boo-st your career 👻 and hone your leadership skills while making an impact. Like Michael Scott’s favorite mug—together, we are the “World’s Best Boss,” and we take pride in our growing volunteer team.
Each step we take together strengthens the foundation of our AMA Austin community. Your enthusiasm, participation, and support cheer us on, fuel our progress, and shape our local marketing initiatives. I'm looking forward to connecting with you at our events and celebrating every success that comes our way.
Let’s Go The Distance!
Mars Mendez, President, AMA Austin

Do you have a marketing surplus? Oscar from The Office explains why you should spend your marketing surplus before the end of the year — and, instead of placing that order for “World’s Best Boss” mugs, now is the perfect time to team with Austin AMA and be featured at the events and channels connecting Austin’s marketing community.
We are looking for strategic partners to assist with underwriting our costs for events and technology as event sponsors and annual partners. For a minimal investment, your company can reach Austin’s community of marketing professionals at every level.
To start the conversation about partnering, contact dallas@austinama.org or contact us.
