# 💼 Onboarding for Strategy

Welcome to UBC Launch Pad, and congratulations (and thank you!) for joining the strategy team!

# Checklist

# Slack Channels

Make sure you are added to:

#tm-strategy: private team channel.
#ask-strategy: this is where members are expected to direct questions at strategy.

# GitHub Teams

Make sure you are a part of the GitHub team @ubclaunchpad/strategy, and check that you can access the private Strategy repository - this repository contains sponsorship resources and event/sponsorship tracking issues.

Account credentials are generally tracked in the Exec repository - reach out to #ask-leads if you need login details to anything, and they will help you get access.

TIP

Make sure that you are watching all relevant repositories so that you don't miss any updates! To learn more about setting up your GitHub notifications, check our GitHub guide.

# Google Drive

Make sure all strategy members are given "editor" access to the shared Launch Pad Strategy subfolder, which is owned by the team@ubclaunchpad.com account.

WARNING

In general, assume pretty liberal with access to folders in Google Drive (since it is hard to keep track of access over time, especially for individual documents, and for ease of use we generally share entire folders with everyone).

Sensitive information (such as contact details for sponsors) should be tracked in one of our private GitHub repositories and distributed as required (for example, by linking to specific issues from Drive documents).

Similarly, do not add credentials (usernames, passwords) in Google Drive. Instead, get them added to the private Exec repository and provide the credentials to those who need it as required.

# Email and Accounts

All Strategy members will be given access to the strategy@ubclaunchpad.com Gmail account to help in correspondance with partners and sponsors. Learn more about Launch Pad email in the email documentation.

To gain access to various social media accounts, see the social media documentation.

# Workflows

TIP

We use GitHub and Slack for pretty much everything - make sure you are intimately familiar with both, regardless of your role, by reading our handcrafted guides:

# Recurring Processes

The Strategy team is responsible for driving efforts on our recurring processes with the Leadership team.

# Acquiring Sponsorships

Create a Sponsorship tracking issue on GitHub
1. Assign to a team member
2. Append all email communication in the issue for future reference
Use email templates under strategy repository on GitHub
Refer to handbook Manifesto when creating/adjusting outreach content for each contact
Create an invoice using this template and save the invoice under the invoice folder of that respective year
Send the invoice to the sponsor and wait for confirmation from ECE
Record revenue on the Income and Expense spreadsheet under the Finance folder

# Planing and Hosting Events

Create an Event tracking issue in the strategy repository - all the things you need to do are included!

You can also refer to the Guide for Meeting with clubs for collaborative event planning.

Social media management workflows are documented in the social media guide.
