“The reality is that no organization — either for-profit or non-profit — has control over its image any longer. Any…fundraising nonprofit that
thinks otherwise will find out painfully that irrelevance is perhaps the
greatest cost of all. ” ~ Chris Bailey

Creators

Collectors
Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to share, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web resources.
Social news sites are different from standard social bookmarking sites by focusing on specific articles and blog posts rather than websites. Because of this, they can be a great source of news, and they also offer the ability to participate in the discussion by leaving comments on popular news items.

Best Practices – Integrated Communications
CONNECTING TO SUPPORTERS
1. Be Personal and Educational
People connect to NPOs on Facebook because they are passionate about the cause and want to participate in making change
Be careful not to only focus on fundraising. Whenever possible, share updates directly related to the impact of your organization
*These charts and more may be accessed on Facebook
2. Create Content Worth Sharing
Empower people to share and spread the word among their Facebook friends by giving them content to interact with and share
Photos, Video and other content can go viral quickly as they attract more “like” and “comment” interactions, which then spread to friends of supporters, attracting new ones.
3. Join the Conversation
Facebook is a culture of conversations—NPOs have a huge opportunity to get immediate feedback on issues
Poll your supporters on Facebook with a question now and then in your status update, instead of only posting statements
Show you’re listening by making a comment among the supporter posts
Don’t discredit an occasional negative comment – view it as an opportunity to start a dialogue and convert new supporters.
4. Grow Your Connections
Promote the Username for your non-profit page everywhere:
email lists, advertising, posters, banners, newsletters, etc.
Encourage supporters to add a Like Badge to their blog or website to show their connection to your NPO
Run Facebook Ads targeted to cause keywords, related organizations, relevant geographies or donors/supporter demographics
5. Make your site social
Like Button: The Like button lets users share pages from your site back to their Facebook profile with one click

Social Media Guidelines
Internet policies need to cover the use of interactive social websites as well as use of email and access to non-interactive websites
Employees should be aware that they are personally responsible for their online posts and disclosure of confidential or sensitive information about employers should be prohibited
Clearly identify certain activities as gross misconduct employers can attempt to reduce exposure to claims of unfair dismissal in the rare event that
an employee's online behavior requires serious disciplinary action.
Employees also need to be made aware that their online communications while using the employer’s IT system may be monitored by the company to ensure compliance with the policy Such monitoring is subject to data protection laws and employers also need to be aware of
employees’ privacy rights in relation to personal emails.
A clear escalation procedure and chain of responsibility can also ensure incidents are well handled by trained staff.
