Subject: Press release for the speaking tour + Final check in

Hey friends!

How are things coming along for the tour stop on your end? This is the final week to do outreach so I am sure things are abuzz.

Everything's good on our end. We should be arriving about 20 or so minutes before the start of the each session. But would love to connect with someone from each city before then.

If you could call me any time before Monday on my cell phone - 416 453 3632 - that would be great.

Here's a press release we sent out this morning, please circulate among your local contacts if you can: http://www.marketwired.com/press-release/-1965131.htm

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Hussan

Hey friends,

Here is an email, and 2 images (vertical and horizontal) you can start using for mark-the-dates outreach.

++ If you would like the poster edited - including but not limited to having location, your contact info etc on the poster - please send the edits to me, and I will get them done ASAP. Or you can download them from here<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g5pl6ii7071d89c/AACDljY_c9HLMl83wF69PvkGa?dl=0> to edit yourself.

++ Please edit the email too and put in your own contact information, web address, etc, particularly if you're able to coordinate endorsements in your city before sending it out. Please cc me on your outreach emails so I can keep track. If you create a facebook event, or post it on a webpage, please share those links with me

++ Now that we have the initial outreach going, can we schedule a time next week for us to chat on the phone? Please email me off-list on when is a good time?

So excited that this is coming together! Thank you so much for your support. Please let me know that you got this email. Hopefully you're on our mailing list, so you will get the more formatted version of this email later today (you can sign up at www.migrantworkersalliance.org<http://www.migrantworkersalliance.org>).
