Social Media: Overview and Strategies for NGOs Gregory Heller Partner & Strategist CivicActions twitter @gregoryheller
Agenda  What is “Social Media”  Why it is important to NGOs  How to develop a Strategy  Measuring Success
What Is It? Social Networks and Social Media are not the same! photo credit: flickr :: muffet flickr :: Andrew Mason
Social Networks Social Networks are the connections people make with one another. Technology empowers this through websites like Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and countless others. photo credit: flickr :: kentbye
Social Media Social media is online content created by people and shared over social networks. photo credit: Library of Congress
The Big Picture  Social media is fundamentally changing the way humans connect and share information and ideas.  It is also YAPS (Yet Another Paradigm Shift) in communications. From a one-to-many mode of communication to a many-to-many mode.  This is unique and unprecedented.
Social Media Is... Connection, Conversation and Contribution through:  Sharing  Participation  Authenticity  Adding Value “"The Conversation Prism" Brian Solis & Jess3”
Why Is It Important  This is the direction internet communication is headed  Your networks are there:  other organizations, donors, board members, etc...  People are talking behind your back!  the conversation is happening with or without you  Increasingly people are searching there
Modes of Social Media Microblogging Social Bookmarking Media Sharing
Microblogging  Frequent Status Updates  Links  sites  news  videos  Breaking News  Rapid  Contemporaneous  Conversation
Microblogging  Short: Constrained length (Twitter 140 characters)  People “follow” you, you “follow” people  Public conversation with other users
Social Bookmarking  People share their bookmarks  Easy to see what's interesting to people  See how other people “Tag” the same pages  (we'll talk about Keyword Research in a minute!) delicious bookmarks & notes (reader)
Social Bookmarking Inside Delicious
One way it happens...  Share This/Service Links on websites
Photo Sharing  Flickr – share photos with friends and strangers  tag photos to be easily findable  add them to “groups”  Post comments, and discussions  license them under Creative Commons  2.5~3 million new photos each day, over 3 billion in total  Facebook – increasingly used for photo sharing  post to “wall” or albums  Tag and Comment  More than 1.5 million pieces of content (web links, news stories, blog posts, notes, photos, etc.) are shared on Facebook daily.
Video Sharing  YouTube – Videos, Video responses, comments, rating, favorites  YouTube is the #2 Search engine in the World  20 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute  Others: Vimeo, Revver, blip.tv  uStream.tv for live streaming
Examples of NGO's Using Social Media
Social Media Strategy example: Photo Petition
Social Media Strategy example: Photo “Contest”
Social Media Strategy example: Using Video to Connect Oxfam used a YouTube video first to introduce their campaign against Starbucks and then to present a “Thank You” from the people Oxfam Supporters helped.
Social Media Strategy example: YouTube Video Campaign
Using Twitter Promotion Invitation, Engagement, Audience Building Petition
Use Multiple Channels
Facebook Fan Page
Facebook Causes
Developing A Strategy Of Your Own.
Look Around  Conduct Preliminary Research  What are other orgs like yours using/doing  Where is your audience  Nielsen Media Metrics  Pew Internet Surveys and Reports  Survey them yourselves  Who are the important/connected people  What are the keywords
Develop A Plan P.O.S.T. Framework (Groundswell, Forrester Research)  People: Identify your audience  Objectives: Identify your objectives  Strategy: Develop a strategy  Technology: Identify the right tools/sites
Ready? photo credit: flickr :: Jon Marshall
Listening Developing a Listening Strategy is essential  Where to listen  Google News and Blog search, Technorati, Twitter  How to listen  feed readers (Google reader, Bloglines)  Schedule time to listen  When & how to respond  Comment, Blog post, Tweet, letter to the editor, op-ed
Keywords... And why they're important:  Search. What your audience searches  Keywords determine relevancy  Relevancy determines findability
Keywords... And how to find them:  Look at “competitors”  Brainstorm with your staff, members, audience  Google Trends (http://www.google.com/trends)  Ask for help/feedback from others  On Twitter, or Facebook for example  Delicious
Finding Keywords Use Delicious to see tags used by others
Listening Tools: Twitter Search Search for Keywords, Look at Trending Topics
Search & Hash Tags
Listening Tools: Google Reader
Google Reader Leverage your listening, use Google Reader to share
Get Connected  Go where your audience is  Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, WiserEarth, Ning  Twitter  YouTube  Participate, Engage, Contribute  Build and use social capital. You can't save it.
Growing Your Network  Make a commitment to “be there”  On Facebook: create a “page” not a group.  Start with everyone in your organization  Grow from there, use blog, website, Twitter  Don't attempt “action” until you have Critical Mass  Take the Long View
Join the conversation  You know who is talking  You know what they are talking about  You know where they are talking  Assign staff resources  Make time in the schedule  Check in to make sure it is happening
Microblogging  Find interesting people/companies and follow them  Post regularly: “What has your attention?”  Links to your blog, but be sure to provide context  Links to other interesting articles, sites, etc...  “re-tweet” interesting/useful posts  reply to the people you follow  don't post many times in a row  Provide value to the people who follow you
Find People To Follow WeFollow.com allows Twitter users to “tag” themselves for others to find. MrTweet.com makes recommendations
Adding Value  Know your audience, understand what they will find interesting and useful. Give it to them.  Provide unique insight  Share “privileged” information
Measuring Success
Measuring Success  Followers, friends, subscribers  Links, retweets, mentions  Facebook “Insights”  Views, Favorites, Ratings Numbers are useful, but don't tell the whole story
Tools For Measurement  Google Analytics  twitter.grader.com, twinfluence.com, twitalyzer.com  Facebook Insights  YouTube Insight
Google Analytics Specifically Look at your “Referring Sites” report. Look for specific Social Media sites. Measure their increase correlated with your use of tools.
