How nimble are you? If you’re like Jack, you’re willing to jump through hoops to get those donor bucks.
![Page 4: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
But are you willing to pour a bucket of ice over your head?
![Page 5: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Ice Bucket Challenge ignited millions across the globe to raise awareness and donate to a cause… IT WENT VIRAL!
![Page 6: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What is it?
THE CHALLENGE:
Dump a bucket of ice cold water over your head (or donate to ALS Association) and take a video of it. Then challenge 3 friends to do the same by tagging them on social!
![Page 7: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
So far…
Facebook: 28 million joined the conversation and 2.4 million videos shared
YouTube: 2,330,000 videos uploaded
Over 50 political figures, 200 athletes, 200 notable actors, and 220 musicians have participated
![Page 8: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Celebs loved it. Just ask @mlauer
![Page 9: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Show me the money!
“The ALS Association is Grateful for Outpouring of Support: Ice Bucket Donations Reach $88.5 Million” (ALSA.org Press Release, 8/26/14)
Compared to $2.6 million during the same time period last year
![Page 10: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Who started it?
This was not a campaign started by the ALS Association, but by young people who wanted to support the cause
Pay attention to Generation Z! They are ‘social’ savvy and can easilyraise money for a cause
![Page 11: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Much more than just the money it raised
Think of the joy, laughter and goodwill, not to mention personal participation from millions
Social proof: peer pressure in a positive way
1.9 million new donors to ALSA.org
![Page 12: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How do we replicate?
Make it ridiculously cool to do!
Funny always works
Easy (low barrier to participate)
Social by nature
![Page 13: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
“Whether we should” is pushing up daisies...
![Page 14: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Let’s talk platforms
Your org’s sweet spot will be based on where your audience hangs out
It might be Pinterest!
![Page 15: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Let’s talk platforms
98% of charities and nonprofits in the US are active on at least one social media site (91% in 2013)
Facebook period! 98% of nonprofits are on Facebook (Hubspot.com + Nonprofit Social Network Benchmark Report)
It’s where the people are… yes, even those without wrinkles
![Page 16: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Holding up their dance card
86% of nonprofits are on Twitter (can tweet donors, funders directly)
33% using Instagram
30% using Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Google+ give or take
YouTube is 2nd most used search engine in the world
![Page 17: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Your audience expects to see you on 3-4 profiles
![Page 18: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hashtags are important
Hashtags help tell the story #livedlongenoughtoseethis#donatenow #volunteer
Hashtags are how people find you
Don’t forget events and tweetchats
![Page 19: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Frequency & timing
How often is enough? It depends on your insights
Remember the algorithms
![Page 21: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Frequency & timing
Generally speaking…
Facebook: 3x-5x week
Twitter: 4x day
Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest and others: 3x week
![Page 22: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
And when?
Generally speaking…
10:30, 12:30 & 3:00pm are great!
B2B conversation best in am
Weekends only if you’re there to respond
![Page 23: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Storytelling and story making
![Page 26: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Your story starts with your brand
Your brand story is the heart and soul of the brand: who you are + who people think you are
Every post reveals what makes you tick, and creates audience experience
Signals: Are you walking the talk?
![Page 27: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Social media is visual storytelling…
93% of all communication is nonverbal
Photos/videos elicit emotion
Don’t underestimate the power of video
Photos get 53% more likes, 104% more comments, and 84% more link click-thrusthan text-only posts
![Page 28: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Captions… keep them short & pithy
Two sentences max—one-two punch that delivers. Add personality
Link to website for details: names, stories, dates, places, significance
Shorten links
Don’t use internal language
![Page 29: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Keep it simple
![Page 30: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
And fun…
![Page 31: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Types of story
Use nostalgia
Be a mythbuster
Ask a question or answer it
Give human attributes to non-human things (cats, coffee cups, staplers)
![Page 32: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Whoever has the best content wins!
Why? Because it gets shared
Keep it light, fun, and what interests you
Inspiration #MotivationMonday
DIYs, video interviews
Memes (branding can reduce shares)
![Page 33: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Inspire us
![Page 34: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Tasteful branding
![Page 35: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Lead AND follow…
![Page 36: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Your muse
![Page 37: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Don’t leave it shriveling on the vine…
Want your community to grow? The things NPO’s must remember
![Page 38: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Social is not your soapbox
Know your audience and serve up deliciousness on a silver platter
#1 mistake nonprofits make: “me, me, me”
#2 mistake nonprofits make: not responding
![Page 39: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The power of the social relationship
It’s not about you
Balance your content
Prioritize story making over marketing 5/1. 5 posts for others to every 1 post about you
![Page 40: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Talking about you, you’re not listening
You centric: We are proud to share our outstanding accomplishments and community impact!
You centric: We will be selling Coach handbags. Come show your support!
You centric: Cindy Z. is our rock star volunteer of the month!
![Page 41: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Respond with heart
Responding is walking the talk
Know who’s talking on your page and continue the connection
Be selfless. Make your fan the hero
You get what you give
![Page 42: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Love spam?

Share the enthusiasm!
![Page 44: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
If you ask, be there for the answer
![Page 45: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
We hear you
![Page 46: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Seed your logo
Seed your logo everywhere… you never know where it will bloom
The more you comment on others’ posts, the more your org is exposed to new audiences
A like is nice, but your logo isn’t seen with a like
![Page 47: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Seed your logo
Leave memorable comments (what about the post resonated with you)
It’s old school to only follow a few! Have you liked every biz/potential partner’s page?
15-30 minutes 2x day to outreach
![Page 48: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Do’s and don’ts ofthe ask
Do create an experience with every ask:“Caddyshack or Happy Gilmore? Tell us what you think was the best golf movie ever made in the comments below. And don’t forget to register for our upcoming golf tournament! #golfforgood”
Do give digital high fives, but don’t let them take over your feed
![Page 49: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Do’s and don’ts ofthe ask
Do return the favor: “You light us up with your generosity all year long and now we want to return the favor. Here’s a little twinkle to light up your day!” [Christmas tree video]
Do share more ways to give ideas
![Page 50: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Do’s and don’ts ofthe ask
Don’t ask too often — once a month so make it count (remember 5/1)
Don’t strive for a donation, strive for a smile
People are 200 times more likely to donate to a cause when a friends asks Blackbaud.com
![Page 51: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
It’s not about the money but…
![Page 52: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
"Like most businesses, non-profits tend to look at social media as a money-first or money-only channel. So I would recommend they temper the expectations that social is about fundraising and just focus on being a resource, useful and/or entertaining to their core audience. Make people happy with your content. The donations will come." —Jason Falls, Founder SocialMediaExplorer.com
Did you know that more than half of your donors are trying to give you money on their ipad and phone?
![Page 53: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Campaigns… you get what you put in
Your ask can only be as big as your prize
Giveaway something that connects your target audience to your brand
Partner up and remember to scratch their back

Social is not free
Social is a pay to play model, and you want to be on the winning side of their algorithms
Typical ad budget: $200-300 / mo –Under 10k fans (split between profiles)
Experiment. Use split testing for targeted ads
![Page 55: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Social is not free
If you’re not boosting, you will slip from the newsfeeds even if you have quality posts and fan engagement (two $10 boosts a week)
Target Hawaii if your donor base is primarily in Hawaii
![Page 56: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
You want numbers? Social’s got them
Social is fluid, and analytics tell you what works
Likes, shares, comments, and clicks(Facebook insights, Twitter analytics, Bit.ly)
Number of fans is important, but not as important as engagement rate
![Page 57: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
It’s okay to think big results…
but have you hiredto create thoseoutcomes?
![Page 58: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Most common mistakes
Adding social media responsibilities to an overburdened plate. Guess what falls off when they get busy?
Diluting the message between many untrained voices
Ignoring profiles (risk)
![Page 59: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Who should do the heavy lifting?
Social media is unique skillset
Tech savvy, full time, integrated with marketing, fund development and customer service
Ability to create content
![Page 60: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Pumped yet?
Or…
Let your staff concentrate on content creation and let an outsource agency do the heavy lifting (content calendar, daily posting, engagement, outreach, social ad management)
![Page 61: Social Media for Nonprofits | National Philanthropy Day Conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081404/559444061a28ab06308b4753/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
TAKEAWAYS
Only truly “social” behavior succeeds
Creation over curation
Metrics matter
The “whether we should” conversation is pushing up daisies
