social media strategy for nonprofits
DESCRIPTION
Slides from a webinar I delivered on January 14, 2014 for Big Duck on developing a social media strategy for your nonprofit. In these slides, I tried to help nonprofiteers understand how you can use online channels to better recruit, retain, and engage supporters. I also shared a few frameworks to inform your social media strategy and lots of smart examples.TRANSCRIPT

started/go to the next level

Why should nonprofits care?

Maybe they shouldn’t… Social media is not… • Free • A silver bullet for fundraising • An opportunity to control your message • An opportunity to tell everyone what you
think • Inherently appealing and cool to millennials • An alternative to clear messaging/mission

That said… Social media is… • Pretty low cost • Growing by leaps and bounds • An opportunity for conversation • A great way to reach & connect with
some audiences • A complement to the messages you’re
sharing through other channels

Parting tips • Map out a strategy: Set goals and find
your community • Create guidelines: Help your team
understand how and why • Allocate time: Start 30-60 min/day • Experiment: Pick one channel to start
with; and be flexible (things change!) • Turn it off: It’s okay to have ‘down’ time
