DESCRIPTION

Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Flicker, RSS Feeds, YouTube, Blogs, oh my! The choices available for communication have exponentially increased over the past five years. What was once considered a “fad” or something just for young people has become the preferred method of communication for many. Since social media will not fade away the questions are: How do we embrace social media effectively? What is the best way to decide which tools to use? And, how can busy nonprofit professionals make time to implement their use? This session will provide participants with the tools and perspective to better navigate the social media revolution. This session will include a fun, fast overview of some of the most popular social media tools and guidelines for using social media to support fundraising and build visibility. A template for nonprofit social media policy will be shared.
