- As far as I am concerned YesIt could and maybe should even take over from your website (more on that later)Why should you start a blog
- Why should you…..It’s a relevant way to speak to supportersIts an authentic way to engage, its written how you speakIts vibrant, or at least it should be vibrant by being fresh (remember Content is King)It is Real communication, it is 2 wayYou cant hide behind it, its totally transparent, your comments will let you know whatBy doing these things you will Build TrustYou will be more human so you will build relationshipsYou start to be more donor focussedSo many arent doing it, it can allow Be Remarkable in your fieldMost importantly……….
- Most importantlyIt’s the futureNot just the future in terms of technology but think about who your organisations future donors are and where they are communicatiingEG Michael Jackson
- But having said Yes you should start a Blog….here is the warning
- Make sure you have the timeMake sure you have the people
- Make the commitmentRead other blogsComment on other blogsRespond to CommentsRemember its 2 way, its new communicationPost regularlyBe RelevantHave dialogue
- So you have decided to start a Blog…what do you do.

- So then you need to work out what you are going to talk aboutMy advice is
- Talk about youMore importantly talk about what it is you (your organisation) doesHow you are making a differenceHow your donor is helping you make a difference
- Anyone…..maybe not everyone?CEO should and couldDir of Fundraising should a couldDir of ServicesFront line staffUsers…..know this they a lot of them are already blogging about you or their experiences with you, engage themYour fundraisers (I got a mail yesterday about someone who is doing a challenge, wouldn’t it have been cool if he linked me to a blog where I can read about his training…think powerade campaign)
