What do you want to accomplish?
![Page 10: Using social media effectively requires a Shifting from social … · 2018-10-01 · Using social media effectively requires a culture change in most organizations. ... Develop a](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070716/5ed987011b54311e7967ba25/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What do you want to accomplish?
Social media objectives are not just about blasting out a message to a mass audience.
Reaching influencers, developing relationships, having a conversation, getting insights, and ultimately helping you with your mission.
![Page 11: Using social media effectively requires a Shifting from social … · 2018-10-01 · Using social media effectively requires a culture change in most organizations. ... Develop a](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070716/5ed987011b54311e7967ba25/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Building Relationships and Issue Awareness
You are interacting with key audiences on social media channels to help build awareness for your organization.
You want to increase visibility in the right areas and become “sticky” in others’ minds through active interaction on different levels.

Stakeholder/Fan Content Generation
Encouraging stakeholders to create positive content about your organization and/or issue and share it with others.
![Page 17: Using social media effectively requires a Shifting from social … · 2018-10-01 · Using social media effectively requires a culture change in most organizations. ... Develop a](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070716/5ed987011b54311e7967ba25/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Increased Traffic and Page Rankings
Drive traffic to your website or newsletter signup by utilizing social media tactics.
Improving search engine results for your organization.
Use social media to spread your web site or blog content.
![Page 18: Using social media effectively requires a Shifting from social … · 2018-10-01 · Using social media effectively requires a culture change in most organizations. ... Develop a](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070716/5ed987011b54311e7967ba25/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Call to Action
Use social media tactics to spur supporters to take action or to donate.
This objective will take much more time and effort than the others to be successful.
![Page 19: Using social media effectively requires a Shifting from social … · 2018-10-01 · Using social media effectively requires a culture change in most organizations. ... Develop a](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070716/5ed987011b54311e7967ba25/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Watch out for vague objectives like “raising public awareness.” Usually public awareness is not an objective in and of itself. It is a midpoint on the road to changing behavior or a means of putting pressure on political or corporate leadership. You could do a poll before and after your campaign and find out that many people are aware of your campaign, but didn’t change their behavior or take action.
![Page 20: Using social media effectively requires a Shifting from social … · 2018-10-01 · Using social media effectively requires a culture change in most organizations. ... Develop a](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070716/5ed987011b54311e7967ba25/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Ask yourself, why do you want to raise awareness? Do you want to pass a bill, change consumer behavior, or decrease the cost of immunization shots? State a specific objective, and then decide how you are going to measure your progress toward this objective. “Improving farmer’s lives” or “eliminating discrimination” are big visions, not concrete objectives. “Increasing the number of households who buy fair trade products” or “providing health care coverage to all children in our state” are achievable objectives.

4. Culture Change
Once you have an initial strategy, how do you get your organization to own it?
How will you address any fears or concerns?
What is the rate of change your organization can tolerate?

To be successful, social media requires a mix of authenticity, openness, transparency and to a certain extent giving up control.
This is a different way of working.
This kind of change does not happen in organizations unless there is education through discussion.

Common Objections:
I already suffer from information overload.
Most online content is shallow and meaningless.
This takes too much time.
What about negative responses?
Our audience isn’t online
What happens if we mess up?
Loss of control over branding and marketing

Wendy Harman, American Red Cross:
Spends more time on culture change than social media.
Every employee should be involved in the conversation.

Have a social media policy but rely on education.
Identify issue experts to be contributors.
Educate by sharing examples of other organizations who have used social media successfully.

Who will implement the social media strategy?
The person in charge should be comfortable using the tools, passionate about your organization's programs, and should enjoy interacting with other people.
However, the entire organization must own the content!

Do you have the most efficient work flow and tasks in place?
Do you need any outside expertise? Will your content updates depend on any
other resource or person? Can you effectively utilize free agents to help
build social media capacity?

Pick a social media project that won’t take much time and relates to goals.
Write down your successes. Write down your challenges. Ask or listen to the people you connect with
about what worked and what didn't. Watch other nonprofits and copy and remix

Be Scout-like. When disagreeing with others’ opinions, remain appropriate and polite. If you find yourself in a situation online that looks as if it’s becoming antagonistic, do not get overly defensive and do not disengage from the conversation abruptly. Ask your Scout executive or the designee for advice on how to disengage from the dialogue in a polite manner that reflects well on the BSA.
Build trust by being open and transparent. Share information and what the challenges and opportunities are for Scouting in your community.http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/Marketing/Resources/SocialMedia.aspx

The IFRC believes that sharing of information and experiences benefits the whole humanitarian community and ultimately the beneficiaries we serve. Feel free to share and discuss your experiences in campaigns, field communication, building of transitional shelters etc. If IFRC staff is perceived to be knowledgeable and helpful this will reflect positively on you and on the organization. Obviously, use common sense where information is concerned that is internal and/or confidential. If in doubt -ask the owner of the information you want to share. Refrain from commenting on the work of colleagues in this or other organizations that are outside your field of expertise.

What material must be approved prior to approval?
Matter of TrustBeing able to share your and the AIA’s activities without prior management approval means the Institute trusts you to understand that by doing so you are accepting a higher level of risk for greater rewards ... Trust is an essential ingredient in the constructive culture we are striving to achieve at the AIA. We can’t be there to guide every interaction, so we expect you to follow these guidelines and advice to help you better balance the risk vs. reward ratio. http://www.aia.org/about/AIAB083034

Should your staff use disclaimers to state that they are not speaking on behalf of the organization?
If you have a blog and talk about work-related issues, add a disclaimer to each page making clear that the views you express are yours alone. Be aware that this disclaimer doesn't free you from the obligations you have under the Codes of Conduct or the Fundamental principles. Example: "The postings on this site are my own and don't necessarily represent positions, strategies or opinions of my employer." If you have an “about me” page, we advise against using photos where you stand in front of one of the emblems since this might give the web site or blog an official appearance. http://sm4good.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Red-Cross-Red-Crescent-SocialMedia-Guidelines.pdf

Social media takes a thick skin. Negative conversations are happening already, but now you have a voice in the conversation. Don’t delete negative comments unless they violate the terms laid out in the BSA Social Media Digital Contract.
Be prepared to respond to negative or inaccurate posts if response is warranted. Some negative comments do not require a response, while others should be taken seriously and addressed. Factors such as the number of followers and the severity of the conversations should temper if and how you respond.
Direct media inquiries to the appropriate person. Media inquiries coming through social media should be referred to the Scout executive or a designee for an official response.
Build trust by being open and transparent. Share information and what the challenges and opportunities are for Scouting in your community.
