Announcing the Evernote Ambassador Program and Evernote Lifestyle Forum!

Community, Our Notes | 24 Oct 201124 Oct 11 | By Kasey Fleisher Hickey

If you follow our blog, you know how important user stories are to us. Each one shows a completely new and unexpected side of Evernote, and behind every story are amazing individuals who have figured out ways to simplify and improve their hobbies, work, family lives and interests thanks to Evernote.

Today, we’re turning these stories into conversations. You can now connect directly with experts and fellow users to learn and share your passion for Evernote. Say hello to the Evernote Ambassador Program.

The Evernote Ambassador Program

The Evernote Ambassador Program shines a spotlight on our passionate users, allowing them to highlight their individual areas of expertise and the ways Evernote helps them achieve their goals as a way to help others achieve theirs.

Who is an Evernote Ambassador?
It’s not just someone who loves Evernote. These are folks that we have hand-selected to represent a handful of use cases. You’ll find Ambassadors on our freshly-minted Ambassador Program page, as well as our brand new Evernote Lifestyle Forum, where you’ll be able to connect with like-minded individuals to discuss the things that matter to YOU.

Let’s say you’re a designer who wants to learn more about using Evernote for design. Check in with Jenn Vargas and find the Evernote for Design Forum, where you and other Evernote users can talk about all things related to mockups, wireframes, mood boards, and more. Are you a teacher? Get to know Kevin Buran, our Teacher Ambassador, and facilitate a new discussion topic about Evernote for making lesson plans.

Ambassadors are identified by Ambassador badges, which you’ll spot in the forum, and around the Web.

  I’ve barely scratched the surface of using Evernote… but I would love it if you had a Real Estate Ambassador I could lean on for ideas!

This is a really good idea. Evernote has always communicated very well with its users, but what I find most helpful is the use cases. I follow Michael Hyatt already and he’s outstanding. If the others are anywhere near as good this is going to rock!

I’ll admit my first thought was “I’d make a great ambassador” but I think I’ll participate in the communities first and reevaluate. Hmmm… sounds like an Evernote tag to me.

Evernote has now become my ALL-TIME fav app in the cloud. However, though I use it regularly as a paid monthly member, I realize I’m probably only really using 5% of the features/options. For example, only in Oct. did i discover there is real value in tapping the “shared” folder option.

In addition to starting to regularly read the Evernote blog….

What do the Ambassador’s recommend for a good place to start into a consistent, deeper dive into becoming a truly comprehensive Evernote “consumer?” Time available for me to commit to the endeavor is 30 minutes daily — on top of how I regularly use it now. (The latter is mostly as a filing-cabinet, referencing-back system.)

Fantastic move!

I’m a Tibetan Buddhist monk, and I thrive with Evernote. It’s one of the best things that ever happened in my digital life. It was intact another monk who turned me onto it when I was then working for Apple and trying to show him the virtue of their now defunct MobleMe cloud service (replaced with their more limited iCloud offering). He said “oh yeah? Take a look at this. It was love at first site.

Nice job

I would be more than happy to become a ‘Student Ambassador’. I am my course representative / peer assisted learning leader.

I am constantly showing friends/peers around University how much Evernote can increase productivity
Bob Bonnett

I am brand new to Evernote. I like what I have seen so far. I am interested in blogging but ignorant as to the nuts and bolts. Going to the ambassador for help in getting started.
