The MRP Framework Checklist

Introduction

Why has the MRP framework been created?

  • One of the main challenges this semester has been around planning and prioritisation. A critical factor in our team's growth has been the speed with which ideas move from concept to execution.
  • However, this rapid pace places significant demands on marketing to efficiently gather information, plan, and prioritise projects in ways that align with strategic goals. Marketing's hard work and adaptability in managing this have been impressive, but this approach is not sustainable long-term.
  • Going forward, we aim to establish better Marketing frameworks for the team such as MRP that will support prioritisation and streamline information-gathering, enabling more effective campaign planning across departments. This Notion page is specifically designed for team members directly involved with the event, providing them with a clear outline of the information required to market the event accurately and effectively.

Goal: The purpose of this framework is to improve collaboration across departments, allowing all teams to operate more efficiently and with fewer bottlenecks, making it easier for marketing to move from concept to action without being overwhelmed by competing priorities.

Notifying Marketing of event

Providing advance notice of an upcoming event alone is insufficient for effective planning. To ensure our team can adequately support the initiative, all relevant information must be submitted to the Marketing or the Business Lead at least three weeks in advance of the event.

That's why... using this checklist ensures that marketing has the essential details needed to begin planning and promoting the event effectively.

Feel free to copy this onto any meeting notes/discord chat as a checklist to track for your convenience - this can be submitted to the @Marketing or the Business Lead at least three weeks in advance of the event via discord:

How to connect the mikes to the cameras:

The mic should contain an aux to aux cable (make sure there is an aux to aux cable in the mic box when checking it out from MSTI) There's clip on the mic which should slide into the metal clip on the camera (SLIDE is important) The aux cable should connect the mic and there should be an aux port on the camera under an opening on the right

At the end of the filming, someone would need to transfer the filmed content over to the MDN drive. There are 2 ways you could do this (which is easier for you):

Harsh's method: personal usb cord to connect the camera to ipad -> download to personal ipad -> upload onto mdn drive

Laptop with sd card slot method: from the SD card -> their laptop (make sure device has a sd card slot) -> upload onto mdn drive
