Why should we use social media?
Maybe you shouldn’t…
Social media is not… • Free • An opportunity to control your message • An opportunity to tell everyone what you think • Inherently appealing and cool to millenials • An alternative to clear messaging/mission • A silver bullet to raise millions of $
Social media is… • Pretty low cost • Growing by leaps and bounds, nationally and
internationally • An opportunity for conversation • A great way to reach certain audiences • A complement to the messages you’re sharing
through other channels
That said…
How do people participate?

Create a social media policy
• Scan sample policies from other orgs • http://socialmediagovernance.com/policies.php
• Agree on contents • Write them in a way that addresses concerns,
but feels friendly and easy to follow • Try http://socialmedia.policytool.net/
• Rollout through staff trainings/meetings • Update 2x/year
http://ejewishphilanthropy.com/developing-a-social-media-policy/
• Social media ≈ conversation
• Social media usage is growing • Look before you tweet! Listen and plan
before diving in
• Choose the tools that are right for you, and be flexible and open
In sum…
1. I am the Web. “Thy God?” No, but don’t ignore my power.
2. Web mensches shall have other laws aside from mine.
3. Don’t hate the slacktivists. It’s all right to click in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath, keep it holy—and unplug.
5. Honor your bubbe and zayde (even if they’re technophobes).
Or even better…

6. Don’t cyberbully.
7. Don’t update your Facebook status on your honeymoon.
8. Don’t steal content; share.
9. Poster, beware: I bear witness to everything, forever.
10. Your disconnected neighbor covets your Wi-Fi; if you can spare the bandwidth, leave your network open.
Or even better…
