communications team is up to

•Follow key people/donors
• Take part in twitter chats to build network
• Identify other groups and organizations that
can help drive traffic to your organization
• Share with your own networks and
encourage others in your organization to
share as well
20. Start with a simple plan
• Identify the audience or community
you want to engage
• Outline your objectives for the plan
(e.g. improve fundraising; broaden the
reach of your message)
• Decide what tasks need to be done to
reach your objectives -- For each task,
identify who will do the work, what
success looks like, and how you will
measure it
• Evaluate, tweak, and improve -- Build
in feedback mechanisms throughout
the process
21. Measure and adjust
• Track consistently and analyze
results

comments, shares, people
engaged, visits to link, video
views
• Make changes as you go
24. What to post
• Content marketing
• Figure out your organizational voice: corporate/personal?
• Be consistent, repetition of messaging is key
• Build an editorial calendar: identify times of year that are
appropriate for planned giving social media (LAL
month, Grandparents’ Day, your organization’s
anniversary, highlight donor or estate, impact of gift)
• Plan in advance the stories you want to share, have good
multimedia materials available
26. Analysis
• Comments on specific posts and
images (Facebook, LinkedIn)
• How many impressions and
clicks (LinkedIn, Facebook)
• Mapping the constituency and
dimension of engagers
(who, where, age
group, frequency)
• Response to paid advertising
• Top keywords used to discover
the campaign (search)
