- Staff
- Same message
- Tried that before and it didn't work
- Time
- We've already tried that before
- Evaluation/outcomes
- Endpoint, transition to the next thing
- Answers for negative attitudes
- Consistency plan
- Sensitivity to listener about message
- Follow-up
- Have to be precise with your message
- Money/Resources
- Get over negativism
- We've never done it before
- Enthusiasm
- Staff--some better messengers than others
- Which of the 500 things do you want to start with?
- Deciding who your target audience is
- Shyness
- Competition with other local groups
- Apathy
- Staff
- Same message
- Tried that before and it didn't work
- Time
- Too much telling people already
- Uniqueness
