What’s So Great?Social media focuses more on the process and not just the outcome.
Social media recognises the power of a creative network and not a strict hierarchy
Less formal and more engaging
Mostly cost-saving
Promote your idea and your passions
Build an online community of followers
Video cameras, editing software, microphones, computers and laptops are now affordable
Gives many more people the opportunity to create, edit and spread information more easily and cheaply

InfluenceSocial media controls the influence of public opinion
No longer do people look only to the government, teachers, parents, church and the mainstream media for advice
Turn to advice from their peers,celebrities, and the most vocalpeople online

Social media platforms overrun with content that doesn’t matter

Be ConsistentIf you are lazy, this is unfortunate as the culture asks a lot from individuals.
Updating regularly, allowing others access to your life, being online to answer questions, continuing on with developing your community, reaching out to others and more.
You need to have good time management skills and keep topics up to date.
Set expectations of when you or your team will be online and when you will respond.
Post regularly, not as often as possible.
Whenever you decide to post, remember to be consistent.
It’s better to post once a week than posting every day for three weeks and then not at all.
![Page 24: Marketing Yourself and Veganism Online](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022100802/587309701a28ab99088b654d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Set Your Goals & CommitHave clear goals with exactly what you want to achieve.
Know your audience and where they are online.
Be realistic with what you can commit to – and stick to it.
Combine your own website, email marketing and paid marketing with your Social Media postings.
Be persistent and be patient when building your online community.
It takes at least 6 months to develop an online position – but realistically it’s more like 1-2 years.

Create Your TribeEmail is still the best way to convert customers - offer free eBooks, links on your Social Media and website
Build your Digital Assets
By creating your own content, you are showing that you’re a leader in the market and not a follower
People will keep coming to you for original content.
Create multi-media content eg video becomes transcribed blog, detached audio becomes podcast

Keep In Mind…Be careful what you share online because everything is a permanent reflection of you or your company/group that may never be erased.
If you have various people posting on behalf of your company, make sure that everyone knows the goals of the company.
Ensure that people know what to post as well as what not to post.
Always use the correct grammar, punctuation and spelling.
If you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face or mail it on a postcard, don’t say it online.
Consider how the content you share is positive or negative for your company.
Don’t abbreviate or use slang - just because you know what it means, doesn’t mean others will.

Online Etiquette
Online Etiquette simply means courtesy to others onlineIf you wouldn’t say or do something offline, don’t do it onlineOnline behaviour shouldn’t just be an afterthoughtIf you type something, you had better mean itWords are powerful. Just as they have the power to motivate and inspire, they also have the ability to hurt and harm othersIf you think something you have written will embarrass someone, get them into trouble, compromise their privacy, or stir up drama, keep it to yourself. Better yet, delete it.

Remember…Remember above all that the information you share about yourself is the one thing online that you have complete control over, so use this well
Use the internet as a marketing tool for you, your life and your future success
Social media is all about cultivating relationships.
Those brands who consistently put in the effort to create excellent content and interact genuinely with their followers will see the most success in the long run.

Get InvolvedKeep up to date with what’s happening in your movement by attending meetings and getting involved the best way you can. Support other groups and events. Attend everything you can, even if you don’t agree with the group, people or the topics. Keep an open mind to learn more.If you’re starting out, meet as many people as you can and then be selective with who you want to hang around with. Take some time out for yourself, completely removed from your activism.
