? Why am I here
![Page 3: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
I don’t specialise in the not for profit sector
![Page 4: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
But I do help SME’s understand how to use social media
![Page 5: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
They have similar issues

Little or no budget
![Page 7: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

But it is possible
![Page 9: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Not for profits can use social media to …

Here are a few things that could help you achieve these with little budget or resource
![Page 12: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Are you sure there’s no budget?
![Page 13: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Build the right business case by using the right language
![Page 14: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Delve into the psyche of your decision makers. How do they think?
What are the real issues they have with giving support to social media activity?
Things like engagement, transparency and community are gold dust to marketers, but to those that hold the purse strings they mean nothing.
Tell them what they need to know. The ROI stuff.
Show them what social media can achieve with relevant case studies, show how you’ll do it, how long it will take, show investment vs return expectation. Make it a no brainer.
![Page 15: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Review current marketing (and other) activities. If they don’t deliver, ditch them.
![Page 16: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Create the right strategy
![Page 17: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Keep an eye out for natural stars
![Page 18: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Give your core social team the right training, support and guidelines
Then roll it out to your staff, allowing them to spread the message and engage with those who share their passion for the cause
When done right, social media should spread through an organisation, giving employees a voice
Do some digging, who in your organisation is naturally good at this social stuff?
But ahead of this, also check …
![Page 19: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Are there mixed messages coming from within? If so fix this first
![Page 20: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Stuff! Other!stuff!
Different!stuff!
THE !GOOD!STUFF!
Integration’s what we need
![Page 21: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Emailers! Database!
Social!
THE !GOOD!STUFF!
Eg: Emailers and Social
![Page 22: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
If you have a quality emailer database, harness the power of your engaged communities by linking the two:
‘Share on social media’ (eg Facebook Like) links in your emails (and of course you can use the data from this to understand your audiences popular social networks)
Add social connect buttons to emailers, encouraging people in your database to engage with your community
![Page 23: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Online emailer suppliers, like Mail Chimp and Constant Contact, help integration by providing social share tools for you to add to emailers or newsletters easily
Mail Chimp also allows you to see which social platforms your database are using through their emails, as well as drilling down into more specific information about that person
Mail Chimp also integrates with Eventbrite if you’re holding an event

If you only have time for one or two social profiles, do it well
![Page 25: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
No time to engage with and manage a Twitter or Facebook community?
Publish a blog and write posts that convey your passion for the cause. Allow readers to share content across social networks to spread the word.
Encourage advocates to write guest posts for you to really get people engaging
Offer blog content to online publishers and other blogs to spread awareness. Use blogger outreach programs to identify influencers you should connect with
![Page 26: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Only have time for one social network?
Find out where your advocates are and go where they are. Use free listening tools for this, such as
Social Mention Addictomatic SM2 (Free for a low number of searches) Search.twitter Google Alerts
Once you’ve chosen the right network, find advocates and engage with them by giving what they need to feel part of your community
![Page 27: Tech for good // Nov 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051816/54539391b1af9f99228b4699/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
OR come up with a creative idea to help engage with your community
Marie Curie have a great example of this through their Tweaparty initiative.
Although, at the time, they were still developing a social media strategy and team, a group of passionate individuals had a brainwave …
