Day 2: Research and Preparation for Broader Outreach Message (December 9)

1. Gather Local Insights
   Conduct a “local pulse check” on Tippecanoe’s early childhood and legal landscape. Look for:
   • Specific local values that resonate (e.g., community support, innovation in education).
   • Notable individuals or small businesses that are well-regarded locally.
2. Draft an Outreach Message
   Begin drafting a friendly outreach message tailored to Tippecanoe’s community, aimed at potential local partners. Highlight:
   • Matrix Kids’ dedication to early childhood education.
   • Our commitment to supporting local IP and educational efforts.
   • An open invitation for Tippecanoe businesses to connect, share ideas, or collaborate.

Day 3: Follow-Up Call with Legal Shield Tippecanoe (December 10)

1. Purpose: Strengthen the relationship by exploring Legal Shield’s vision for the potential partnership.
2. Script Outline:

Matrix Kids: Hi [Contact’s Name], it’s great to speak with you again! We’re feeling really positive about what we can build together. After our last conversation, we started thinking more about how we could tailor our efforts to Tippecanoe’s unique needs.

Legal Shield: Hi [Your Name], I appreciate the follow-up. We’re also eager to hear more about what you’re envisioning.

Matrix Kids: Fantastic! One idea we had was to expand our outreach to more community partners here in Tippecanoe, creating a broader network that supports IP rights in early childhood education. We would, of course, position Legal Shield as a central figure in this initiative.

Legal Shield: That’s an interesting approach. It could certainly help raise awareness and maybe even attract new clients.

Matrix Kids: Exactly! And as part of our open experiment, we’re inviting community feedback at every stage. This way, we’re building something not just for our companies, but for Tippecanoe’s future. How does that sound?

3. End the Call with an Invitation to Share Ideas
   Encourage Legal Shield to think about any specific support they’d value from Matrix Kids and suggest they share these ideas in a follow-up email.

Day 4: Draft and Share the Local Outreach Message (December 11)

1. Craft the Final Message for Local Distribution
   Incorporate insights from the Tippecanoe community and Legal Shield. The message should convey:
   • The value of protecting intellectual property in education.
   • An invitation to be part of a community-led partnership for local growth.

Sample Local Outreach Message:

Subject: Join Us in Supporting Tippecanoe’s Families and Innovators
