Transcript of Snapchat and Instagram for Charities
An Introduction to Snapchat and Instagram
Mary Mitchell @mary_mitchIBT @_IBT
“Facebook is for major life updates. (Your friend from third grade just had her 10th baby!) Twitter is for keeping up with news and live events. ( Taylor Swift released a new video…again.) Instagram is for jealousy-inducing photos. (Bora Bora is beautiful; your cubicle is not.) Snapchat is for bearing witness—telling stories in raw, often humorous, behind-the-scenes clips or messages.”
- Joana Stern, WSJ
The future of content marketing is video
● Cisco predicts that consumer internet video traffic will go from 64 percent in 2014 to surpass 80 percent by 2019
● Slow death of ‘interruption marketing’ (Seth Godin), rise of storytelling● Video has higher completion rate than text articles ● Video is increasingly watched on mobile ● Social networks are prioritising video
Why or why not?
Snapchat is YOUNG!
10 billion video views per day (up from 4 billion in April 2015) - Facebook currently 8 million.
“People’s behavior is changing so that photos are being used as speech instead of a repository for memories.”
- Robert Peck, Sun Trust Robinson Humphrey

“When we make interactive Snapchat stories, we ask ourselves, “How ridiculous can we be? How much fun can we have?” Recently, we’ve been experimenting a lot with interactive Snapchat stories and cross-platform engagement. All of DoSomething’s campaigns have an SMS text message component, since text messages have a 97% open rate and are one of the best ways to reach teens.”
