- What is the purpose of using this Social Media? What is its strength? What is itsweakness? What opportunities does it present? What are the threats orrisks?
- 1. Obscure profile images A dash of creativity to your groups social media profiles is one thing, but something unrelated and abstract is another. Always use your nonprofit’s logo as the profile image, because it leverages the most brand recognition. 2. Self-centered content sharing Just because users have decided to follow your nonprofit’s social media accounts doesn’t mean you should inundate them with promotional or fundraising posts. A good rule of thumb is the 70-20-10 rule. 70% value-based content + 20% shared content + 10% promotional content. 3. Inconsistent posts Ensure your social media audience remains engaged by providing them with content that encourages interaction. This includes posting and tweeting thought-provoking content that sparks discussions. 4. Avoiding dialogue Out of all of the social media platforms out there, Twitter provides nonprofits with the best opportunity to reach followers in real time. Not only can you interact with those you are connected to, but conversations around hashtags allow you to connect with potential supporters. Hosting Twitter chats and live tweeting during events are two other great ways to interact with your nonprofit’s supporters, potential supporters, partner organizations and other key influencers. 6. Sticking to worn-out methods Social media platforms evolve at lightening speed - so keep up with the latest trends. Be creative and test out different methods of sharing content and engaging with supporters: - Ask questions. - Share photos and links to stories. - Post images with text overlaid on photos. - Announce victories and organizational milestones. - Request partner organizations to share your nonprofit’s content on their networks. (And do the same for them!) - Create and share infographics. The key to a successful social media strategy is to constantly share interesting content. Replicate ideas that work and go back to the drawing board to refine and retest ones that don’t.
