Toto, I've a feeling
we're not in Kansas anymore. 
               •Your website is
                 Kansas—it’s home,
                 a fixed place.
               • Social media is the
                 tornado—sending
                 your message all
                 over the place.
OK, Toto,
where do we start?
Start at the
beginning—
   WHO,

   WHAT,

   WHEN,

  WHERE,

    WHY
You
 Need
  to
Know…

        WHO…
  you want to connect with
 in the Land of Social Media
Define YOUR Target Audience
Munchkins? Great-Granparents?
    Millenials? Boomers?
                    WHO?
THINK…

  WHAT
 is your social
media strategy?
Dorothy: How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know....but some people without
      brains do an awful lot of talking, don't they?

CARE…

   WHY
should people
listen to you?
Identify the
 problem…


 Offer a
solution…
Interact,
Engage,


Rinse &
Repeat…

                                    But—
                                    what if
                                    we get
                                    (gulp…)
                                    negative
                                    feedback?
Somebody,
        somewhere on the internet,
is already talking about your organization.
Spring Garden Soup Society is talking about
Norris Square Senior Center…
O-Eh-Yah! Eoh-Ah! O-Eh-Yah! Eoh-Ah!
