After Brand Kit: boards, print, socials, and a simple website. One message, four channels.

A short live path: Logo Builder, Social Examples, Graphic Maker, Quote Card, then Website Template.
Brand Kit is step 0. Your colours, logo, and links then show up on every graphic, notice, flyer, and site template. Set them before the rest of the roadmap.
Post a high-contrast notice on workplace bulletin boards. Members who are not on social still need to see meeting times and updates.
Hand out the same message as a flyer for meetings, walkabouts, and actions. Pair print with boards so members offline still get the facts.
The 20-minute demo skips print. Come back to Flyer Maker after Quote Card if you still have time.
Give members one link for contact info, officers, and about your local. Download a ready-made template and host it free on GitHub Pages.
A simple rhythm after Brand Kit. Link the same message across channels. Do not chase every platform at once.
External resources cited in this guide. National and government URLs often move; if a link 404s, search from that organization’s home page. OPSEU / SEFPO pages on opseu.org may block automated checks — open those links in a browser before you share them in a workshop.
National About hub. Graphics downloads move when the national site reorganizes — Brand Assets on this site mirrors logos and colour specs.
Live example local site built by Local 243 volunteers (local243.org redirects here). The Website Template tool is a simplified, parameterised version of this GitHub Pages site.
Free static site hosting used by the exported website ZIP. No server or database required.
Many locals use a closed Facebook group as their primary member channel.
