Social Media Dos and Don’ts

➔ ➔

➔ ➔



DO Success lies in consistency and having a strategy. Make the long term commitment. DON’T just ask to Like Us on Facebook and Donate with every Tweet or Post. It gets old fast and potential donors will lose interest quickly. DO Be authentic, humorous, engaging and cultivate relationships with donors DO Pick and choose where you want to be (Facebook, Twitter, etc). You don’t have to be everywhere all the time! Key is to use one or two sites and do them often and consistently. DO Keep it short and sweet
